So as I was doing my homework this weekend I read about an Occupational Model of practice called the Kawa model. Here is the link to the website that talks about the model. I really find it interesting and was thinking about trying to incorporate it into a piece of jewelry of some kind. I was considering making earrings that looked like river rocks that contain lots of material so when they open, river like material flows out of them signifying that my life is healthy and on the right track. When I am feeling frustrated and out of place in my life the earrings would be closed because in the model, the river signifies the flow of ones life. It gets impeded with river rocks and when there is a large build up, you need occupational therapy. Check out the website, its an interesting concept.
