The Journey of Recovery and Empowerment Embraced by Nature — Clients’ Perspectives on Nature-Based Rehabilitation in Relation to the Role of the Natural Environment
This paper presents findings from real life situations, a longitudinal single case study on the role of natural environments in nature-based rehabilitation (NBR) for individuals with stress-related mental disorders, at the Alnarp Rehabilitation Garden in Sweden. A sample of 43 former clients voluntarily participated in semi-structured interview, and the data were analyzed according to interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). Three main sup…
Ecopation
This article examines the current perspective of sustainability and explores its relation to occupation. An elaborated version of the concept of ‘ecopation’, originally developed in 2002, which melds together eco-ethics and knowledge about occupation, is used as a tool to address sustainability issues in relation to future occupations for well-being. The concept of glocalisation is introduced as a means by which to capture the interconnectedness …
Facing Challenges during Occupation
Occupational well-being is a central issue underpinning factors that constitute a good life. This study aimed to explore occupational well-being among Middle Eastern immigrants to Sweden, as reflected in the occupations performed in the context of psychosocial health care. Ten participants experiencing mental health issues, who received occupation-based rehabilitation, were interviewed. Grounded theory methods for data collection and analysis wer…
Stigma-Handling Strategies in Everyday Life among Women aged 20 to 30 with Transversal Upper Limb Reduction Deficiency
This grounded theory study shows an adaptation of stigma-handling strategies to situations in everyday life by women aged 20 to 30 with dysmelia, i.e. transversal upper limb reduction deficiency (TULRD). Strategies are comprehensive patterns of action aimed at controlling information about one's status as deviating from an ad hoc normality. Strategies consist of: (1) attitude (proofing/being); (2) tactic (concealing/revealing); (3) exposure (volu…
Towards an Experiential Model of Occupational Balance
The Experience Sampling Methodology (ESM) being elaborated within flow theory provides a unique opportunity to collect data about occupational experiences. Both four‐ and eight‐channel models have been developed, to capture various dimensions of people's lived experience. However neither of these models seems suitable for analysis and discussion of balance within everyday life and its relationship to other factors such as well‐being. The purpose …
Time to Reevaluate the Machine Society
This paper discusses the ethics underlying the occupational repertoire of the post‐industrial citizen, giving attention to lifestyle phenomena such as increased tempo and quantity of occupations; manipulation of time, organisms and environments; decreases in sleep, rest and play etc. In trying to understand human behavior in the 21st century, an ethical perspective is delineated and some starting points for a discussion of ethics from an everyday…
The experience of everyday occupations and its relation to sense of coherence ‐ a methodological study
The connection between health and the activation of the body that occurs through occupational engagement in rehabilitation is unquestionable, but what impact on health and well‐being does the experience of occupational performance have in itself? This pilot study was conducted to develop a methodology that captured qualities of experience in the daily occupational repertoire of six heterogeneous cases. The following instruments were used: 1) Expe…
