My undergraduate degree was in Art and Art Education so I had a variety of ideas going into this module. Uiara and I felt confident in our ability to grade the activities to the attendees' skill levels due to our knowledge of OT. However, I also felt confident on this particular module because it was art-based, and that is another one of my skill sets. We deliberately chose Zentangle because it is an art form that cannot be done in a right or wrong way. Most individuals have never tried it, so they don't have a preconceived notion of how their work should look in the end. This makes Zentangle one of the best art forms for stress management.

At the same time, having a background in art was a bit of a struggle. I had a lot of activity ideas, as did Uiara, but we wanted to make sure that our activities were as accessible as possible. We deliberately chose activities with very simple materials which we thought most individuals have at their homes (e.g., a pen, pencil, and paper of any kind). We also came up with the idea of supply kits that attendees of the module could pick up at the clubhouse if they did not have the materials for the Get Zen With Zentangle! module. It was important to be client-centered, and not assume anyone had materials just because we thought they might!

We worked together to create an overall template design that we felt was clear for each Power Point (e.g., The introduction slides had one background, the protocol had another, and the module for the clubhouse members had yet another background). Uiara also understood that I like to design Power Points (e.g., backgrounds, images, etc.) so she tended to give me some creative freedom in this area throughout this project. I also recognized and built upon her strengths too.

I really enjoyed Canva as a design platform. However, sometimes we could not figure out how to move images or text around on the templates. After three modules, Uiara and I both finally became accustomed to how the website worked and the template customization options for the handouts in Get Zen With Zentangle!

Uiara and I completed this module days before the due date. While modules 1 and 2 took approximately 3 days (working all day, and not including preparation time), we thought Get Zen With Zentangle! would go at a more rapid pace because we had the template of the previous modules in mind. However, each module took longer than the last. This was a good learning experience, as it emphasized the importance of time management. I am so thankful we gave ourselves plenty of time to complete the Get Zen with Zentangle! module like we did with the other two modules for the Decompress and De-stress! program.

We really thought out all of the "moving parts" of the Get Zen With Zentangle! module. Perhaps this is why each module took longer than the last. Every aspect of this module considered the leaders and attendees potential skill levels and abilities. We also needed to make sure the module met their stress management needs, and I believe we were more than successful accomplishing this goal.

I felt we did a great job audio recording for Get Zen With Zentange! After recording for all three modules of the Decompress and De-stress program, it became almost second nature to record audio voiceover for our third and final module.

I am happy to have utilized Google Slides, Power Point with voiceover, and Padlet for this entire project. While I was familiar with Google Slides and Powerpoint, I did not know how to audio record or change fine details. For example, Uiara showed me how to "stop" videos embedded into our Power Point at a particular time marker. This is a useful skill I will use in the future. I also showed her various ways to customize the templates in Canva. Finally, I feel comfortable utilizing Padlet. I had never tried this platform prior to this project, and I really enjoy the way it can make information more exciting to read compared to a simple word document. I can "see" myself as an OT working with clients and/or students on a platform such as Padlet, as it is so accessible and makes work more fun.

Final Thoughts: Decompress and De-Stress!

Overall, I am very pleased to have worked with Uiara on the Decompress and Destress! program. We planned ahead, effectively collaborated, and brought our ideas and skills together to form a  program that I believe a clubhouse like Neponset River House could really utilize, now and into the future.
