    Episode 38: The Work by Byron Katie - Questioning our Thoughts

    I go through the "The Work" by Byron Katie this week and use one of my own thoughts as an example: I suck at ART. Anchor into a specific situation: 1. Is this True? 2. Can you Absolutely know it's true? 3. How do you react, what happens when you believe that thought? 4. Who would you be without that thought? "Your soul is tired of waiting for you to feel more alive."

    Episode 36: Kawa Model by Dr. Michael Iwama - A Metaphor for Life

    Kawa is the Japanese word for ‘river’. The Kawa Model uses the metaphor of a river to represent a person's life journey. Occupational therapists try to support, restore and maximize their clients’ life flow. The Kawa Model can be used in its original form of a river, or broken down into the following 5 elements: i. River Flow - life flow and priorities ii. River Banks - environments / contexts, social and physical iii. Rocks – obstacles & challenges iv. Driftwood – influencing factors v. Spaces – Opportunities for enhancing flow Kawa Model: https://kawamodel.com/download/KawaMadeEasy2015.pdf ““Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” Maya Angelou ⁠Ashlea's Website: https://www.ashleadwalter.com/artwork⁠ ⁠Ashlea's Colouring Book on Amazon: ⁠https://www.amazon.ca/Coloring-Book-Anxiety-Relief-Mindfulness/dp/B0CGL4FZJG ⁠Ashlea's IG: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/ashleadwalter/ ⁠Ashlea's YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@AshleaDWalter/videos
