"Blissful Ordinariness"

Hello! Welcome back on the ride! Today I will be discussing "blissful ordinariness". You may wonder what that phrase means. To me, it means the things that we do on a regular basis without any thought being put into doing them. Those things that we can take for granted because we may not realize how important they are, simply because it is a part of our every day routine. What happens when you can no longer do your "blissful ordinariness" due to an injury, illness, or other unforeseen circumstance? One of your options may be to see an occupational therapist.  "Blissful ordinariness" relates to therapeutic relationship of the occupational therapy profession in terms of the focus being placed on helping individuals get back to meaningful activities of their daily life. It relates to the holistic nature by way that we are not just focusing on a person's illness or injury, but rather at everything that makes that person who they are. "Blissful ordinariness" is a part of one's daily life, and occupational therapists create interventions to help individuals return to those things to the best of their ability.
