    Welcome to the

    MeOTA Reading and Reflection  Circle

    Thanks for joining us for some R & R and for taking the opportunity for comradery, personal growth, re-energizing and a greater appreciation for the Power of Occupation.

    NEXT CIRCLE R & R : June 7 at 6:30pm

    Our next book has been chosen by you! It is....




    Background information for the MeOTA Reading and Reflection circle:

     This circle is a collaboration between MeOTA’s Leadership, MeOTA members and Diane Sauter-Davis (as host).

      Any MeOTA member can belong at no cost but you must first sign in with your Special Interest Section Representative. Non MeOTA members may join for a fee. 

      We will focus on books that complement our work as OT practitioners to promote self- care, lateral thinking, creativity, and networking opportunities.

      The circle will meet virtually 3 times per year-late January, early June and early October (exact dates TBD).

     We meet for 1.5 hours from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM.  The date we chose as an initial group was Wednesday. 

      Thanks for your commitment to reading, reflecting and participating. This makes the circle, and each of us better thinkers with a broader perspective. 

      The first read was chosen by your host for ease of getting started; subsequent reads are determined by circle member suggestion.

      Your SIS Representatives will send a reminder of the circle meeting 2 weeks prior to the circle.

     Reads will have wide appeal and should be able to be found in local libraries, book stores and virtual options (Audible, Google,).

      Reads can be of any genre however, the focus is on our personal development and professional growth.

      Reads will inspire reflection, positive habit of mind, horizontal thinking and promote creativity and innovation       Reads will support your role as an Occupational Therapy practitioner and beyond!

      All participants are encouraged to share their “take-aways” and perspectives from every reading for discussion.

      This   is a stress free, no judgement zone.

    Our goal is to support you, your health & wellness and the good work you do each day
