"...when you can get yourself and that parasympathetic nervous system in a calm place, that is when you start healing. That is when you heal your nervous system, and to calm that nervous system is such an important part of Nursing. And that helps us do our self care, that helps us to regenerate who we are, so we can function day to day. It helps us so that we can love ourselves and each other. It's coming from that calm nervous system that is a primary focus of being human." ~Geralyn R...

"Nurse coaching, as we know, is not only about coaching others, but it's also about self development of the Nurse and helping the Nurse to transform and into greater health and well being for themselves. And how did we think of it? Well, we certainly have been in the space together in certain conferences and listening to certain programs, and we realize that Nurses have an awful lot of education, experience that they can bring to clients, and use a lot of functional medicine principles...

“I've never seen this type of healing in the conventional healthcare system. Never. It's so profound and so fast and long lasting, and it's just absolutely mind blowing every time. Not always, though, isn't this effective for everybody, right? It's not a magic pill or a cure all or anything like that. But for the people that it does work for, they say that everything they tried didn't work, but this was it. It brings me to my soul work, which is being able to be a bridge or a faci...

"...we sell hope, because lots of times patients will come to us, they've got the med list this long, and they just think it's going to keep getting longer. We let them know that this is not what it has to continue being. We can actually make changes, and lifestyle medicine providers will, as appropriate, de-prescribe or decrease the dose on these medications. And from the Nursing perspective, it's about being very specific, so making the recommendations instead of saying, you know, eat...

"A lot of what we do is give patients hope. Give patients hope and listen to them. And that, in itself, is so healing. I think it's so healing and transformative, ...even if they don't get to where they were before, they become the best version of themselves that they can be." ~Elizabth Sult BSN, RN, NC-BC "In conventional medicine, the question is, what's the diagnosis? And once you know the diagnosis, then there's sort of these algorithms that, you try to see if they help. But in functional...

"What is homeopathy? I think a lot of people confuse it with home remedies. And it's not necessarily home remedies. It is, not garlic and using turmeric and herbs. Rather, it's its own subset of medicine. It's an energetic medicine. So everything is ultra diluted in homeopathy. So they do take a mother tincture, or a natural substance, and will dilute that to the point where it's only the energy left of that substance. So we are talking about only the energy, and the way that it works i...

Wellness Nurse Revolution: Alison Boser RN “Everybody wants their employees to be healthy, but being healthy…What does that mean? And that means different things to different people. It's not one size fits all. It's a really flexible, definition based on your stage of life, where you are. And I think an awareness of wellness as this sort of amorphous different things at different times for people would be fantastic. I think wellness, like capital W wellness, has a bit of a negativ...
