Course overview
Helping people change their habits to change their health is one of the main mechanisms that makes OT effective. But, I don't think we spend enough time thinking about how HARD it is to change our habits. The article we are looking at today focuses on changing lifestyle habits for adults at high risk of a cardiovascular incident, like a stroke. The author's aim is to conceptualize how engaging occupations can be used to facilitate health promoting habits. We'll use this article as a jumping off point to discuss both habit formation and Lifestyle Medicine with Ryan Balats Osal OTD, MS, OTR/L, NZROT, CEAS, CHC.
