The Nurse's Meditative Journal (Nurse as healer series) - Softcover

A combination meditation manual and journal for nurses. It includes a brief section on mediation instruction, and a larger section for weekly journaling and meditation suggestions. This book integrates the latest scientific body mind research with the ancient wisdom of the eastern cultures. The book begins with a look at stress - its physiology, cause and effects - then moves to the mind and how to use thought to modify experience. It also explores the body, breathing, exercise, nutrition and self-massage, and how the proper use of each one can be a stress reducer.
