Inspiring Collective Community: Christine Gilchrist PhD, MPH, RN, NC-BC, CH Highlights"To each of you— to ask, at this point, 'what is it you're hoping for'?  And then when you have that, when you've reflected on that, to go back inside and ask, 'what is your deeper hope'? I think, to be able to connect with feelings of hope through difficult times that certainly we experience in our lives and as a society, it's important to connect with hope, the feelings of hope, and what ultimately we're hoping for, because there's always, there's always hope in each moment." ~Christine Gilchrist PhD, MPH, RN, NC-BC, CHAh-Ha MomentsYou can do anything you set your mind to!Connect with your Community- they will hold up a mirror for you, to see how powerful you areWords and how we can connect them for our clients, patients and communities are important in the sense of change and evolutionImagine your future as you want it... and so it isYou'll find healing in communityLinks and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastClinical Meditation and Imagery with Bonney and Richard SchaubHarnessing the Power of Hypnosis Intro CourseHypnosis for Nurses: Certification CourseCalm Collective CareDean Ornish programChristine's LinkedInChristine's YouTubeEp34: Powerfully Linking Curanderismo and Nurse Coaching-Caroline Ortiz, MS, MPH, RN, NV-BCArticles:Trauma-Disclosure, Meaning-Making, and Help-Seeking in Mothers Experiencing Homelessness: Results From a Trauma-Focused, Clinical Ethnographic Narrative InterventionPilot clinical trial of a clinical meditation and imagery intervention for chronic pain after spinal cord injuryA Randomized Trial of a Group-Based Integrative Medicine Approach Compared to Waitlist Control on Irritable Bowel Syndrome Symptoms in AdultsThe Nurse Coach Community – 700+ Amazing ConnectionsIntegrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

Menopause Insights from a Nurse Coach-Suzanne Greiner BSN, RN, NC-BC Highlights“Yes, I'm going through perimenopause. And what do I want my perimenopause story to look like? Do I want to be a victim to going through this?Or do I want to be that victor? I went through perimenopause, and I was able to do this, and I was able to find solutions for my own health. And I think the kicker for me at that point in my perimenopausal journey was, I want this to be that when I'm 85 years old, and I look back on my life, this is the point that I chose for longevity of my life, versus a quick fix.So, every decision past, that point in time was, is this going to be helping my 85-year-old body to hike a mountain, or is it going to set me back? So those are the kinds of decisions of working with my future self. What does my future self-want me to do at this moment?” ~Suzanne Greiner BSN, RN, NC-BCAh-Ha MomentsIn mid-life, if you're lucky, you WILL go through the stages of menopause- perimenopause, menopause and post menopauseYou have choices and a voice as it relates to your health- and ALL aspects of your lifeImagine the life you want to life at 85 years old- ask yourself- is this a decision that will support me when I get to be 85?Let Them = Let Me….

86: Building a Meditation App- Ann Adams, MS, RN Highlights"Two supportive practices that are accessible to anybody is their breath— that can help regulate their nervous system, just by learning different ways to breathe. And gratitude. So a gratitude practice is free, and that helps you not ignore what's negative, but helps you scan the horizon for also what's good.  If we have a dysregulated nervous system, we tend to look for what can be threatening, because that will be what saves our life. So a gratitude practice helps balance that out, that intentional practice of looking for the good." ~Ann Adams, MS, RN Ah-Ha MomentsTake your wisdom, creativity and passion and create something you've always wanted or needed“Sometimes, you don't always have the answers, you just know you need to begin.” ~ Dr. Barbara DosseyTwo supportive and accessible practices are breath and gratitudeLet your heart and inner wisdom guide you, it will never let you downYou will learn so much about yourself when you decide to dig in and do something that is fueled by your passion and desireLinks and Resources·       Integrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcast·       Integrative Nurse Coach Certificate Program·       Mindfulness Meditation: Stillness Practices for Nurses Specialty Course·       CRUSH the Pain Instagram ·       CRUSH the Pain Meditation app on Google·       CRUSH the Pain Meditation app on Apple·       CRUSH the Pain website·       Ann's email·       Dean Ornish Intensive lifestyle changes for reversal of coronary heart disease (1998) article·       Candace Pert Molecules of Emotion bookIntegrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

85: Celebrating Integrative Nurse Coaching: Karen Avino EdD, RN, AHN-BC, HWNC-BC Highlights"The trend word out there is well being, right? We want Nurses, everyone, to feel like they are in the state of well being.  We know that well being is really static. It's like in the present moment, I'm feeling well, whereas really, self development is about well becoming, because it's a much longer journey of... and never ending, a never ending journey of well becoming, right?That always has to be a major part of who we are and what we do, because without that experience and being able to develop ourselves, we can't sit with the suffering of others and do a meaningful job with them, or take on the suffering ourselves, or, you know, all of those pieces." ~Karen Avino EdD, RN, AHN-BC, HWNC-BCAh-Ha MomentsInnovative Specialty Courses for NursesUpdate on Nurse Coaching CPT CodesRevamping the online curriculum of the Integrative Nurse Coach Certificate Program (INCCP)Renewing Alumni Connection ProgramCelebrating the success of the Integrative Nurse Coach Symposium in FloridaExcitement about the Holistic Holiday at Sea+ MORE!Links and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastEp25: It's Time to Re-Energize Nurses!- Karen AvinoEp72: Inspiring Nurse Voices at the 2024 INCA Symposium!Ep73: More Inspiring Nurse Voices from the 2024 INCA Symposium!Holistic Holiday at SeaINCA's Specialty Course PageKaren's email Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

"In the Nurse coaching certificate course, we definitely learned about mindfulness. And you know, that sounds maybe trivial to somebody who's not familiar with Nurse coaching. Sure, we know mindfulness is research fact and very effective, but it just goes so much deeper than that.You know, we don't often as Nurses, allow ourselves enough time, time with our patients, time with ourselves, time to breathe, time to drink water, to take a rest, so allowing time and space to transpire, to let our bodies catch up with ourselves, to really hear what our patients are saying, you know, or what they're not saying.Time is... I really think mindfulness and time are so connected that we can be mindful, intentionally mindful, if we allow ourselves more time. So that is a big one. You know, I think that's a big one in this busy healthcare space, allowing more time or creating a way to allow for more of that." ~Maggie Gardner RN, BSN, HWNC-BC, CH-CAh Ha MomentsAs Nurses, we can do things to numb our emotional experiences- social media, alcohol, drugs, ignoring the things we experience - this is not serving you, it never has- maybe there is another way...There are so many pathways you can choose to take in your professional and personal life- go in the direction that lights you up- that is the best way to go- even if it's scaryYour sensitive heart is exactly what is needed to shift the way the healthcare system is being run!  You are exactly where you need to be, right now.

“…the problem and what is driving Nurses from the profession in droves like never seen before— please don't talk to me about attrition, well, yes, that's a factor—the world is hemorrhaging Nurses. And that's a quote from Dr. Terrance Hill, medical sociologist, the world is hemorrhaging Nurses and the root cause for that, it's not about burnout.And please stop gaslighting Nurses about burnout resilience. Please just stop. The reason.  The root cause, according to my research, five years, four disciplines, is avoidable, Nurse Specific Traumatization. And this would be this historical trauma, where we are unknowingly transmitting." ~ Dr. Lorre Laws PhD, RN Ah Ha MomentsAll Nurses have, (or will have) experienced traumaEnough blame on Nurses. Healthcare system, wake up!  Instead of putting the blame on your employees, let's address the systemic problems that are causes of avoidable traumas… understaffing, bullying, violence, not addressing high acuity, lack of resources and still demanding exceptional care and more…Thinking that solving burnout will fix all Nursing problems is all wrong, what if what we're experiencing is because of trauma exposure? That the actions and responses we see in ourselves, and our colleagues are because the traumas are being stored in our bodies, minds and spiritsWe must learn about how trauma can and has affected us, and make this common language, and learn how to help ourselves so we can begin to heal and insulate our nervous systems from further injuryLinks and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastNurse Trauma Healing PodcastEpisode 79: Together We Can Stop Shame and Blame in Nursing with Kristy MeyerNursing Our Healer's Heart bookLorre's websiteDr Karen Foli Middle Range Theory of Nurses' Psychological TraumaIntegrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

82: Uplifting Messages from the Universe! Annie Jones PhD, MBA, MSN, RN, AOCN, NC-BC Highlights“I thank the universe and have much gratitude. I think what's on my heart is that community is so important.  And it's our own responsibility for ourselves, and to remember that when we see another member of our community— so in other words, our Nursing group, our Nurse coaches in particular— is that we're a sister and brotherhood, and we have to reach out to keep ourselves together in a world that is designed, at the moment, to tear us from all ends.” ~ Annie Jones PhD, MBA, MSN, RN, AOCN, NC-BCAh Ha MomentsThe universe is always supporting you.  Giving you what you need and who you need to elevate you and sustain you towards whatever you desire.Life will take you on many twists and turns and the universe will guide you.You will be faced with challenges and possibilities, and you get to choose.  Maybe you even become a Possibilitarian!Listen to the messages the universe is sending you.Links and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastBarbara Dossey's websiteHarmony HillBonney & Richard Schaub - Transpersonal Nurse CoachingHealth Forward LLCAnnie's LinkedInHarmony Hill in Union, WA Wings of Hope*****Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

81: Building a Business as a New Nurse Coach- Whitney Distefano BSN, RN, NC-BC “As a new business owner in the community, it's just been one learning opportunity after another, and truly just like a practice of vulnerability, of showing up and putting yourself out there and really doing the best I can to be detached from the outcome, which is what they teach us as Nurse Coaches as well.  Showing up day in and day out, and knowing that, you're gonna find things that you don't know how to do, you're going to find that there are questions you didn't even know were questions. And just having to come back to the attitude that, everything is figure out-able.” ~Whitney Distefano BSN, RN, NC-BCAh Ha MomentsIt's absolutely vulnerable to be a new business owner, especially because Nurses are never taught how to be entrepreneurs. And yet, we can still show up and be open to the possibilities!Everything is ‘figure-out-able'.  And we can ask for help, and be detached from the outcomes, as best we canBe clear on your personal vision and values, as those will be instrumental in you showing up for the world in your true, authentic way, and your ability to align with how you are being of serviceBegin with one step at a time.  You don't have to do it all right away.  Find the things you think will have the most impact and begin there.

"Nurses are so well suited for psychedelics, and we bring so many skill sets that other disciplines don't, and I don't think any one discipline has it all, but I think we bring a really important piece of the puzzle. And if you think about it, Nurses are with patients in non ordinary states of consciousness, sometimes every day.  If you're a hospice Nurse or working in labor and delivery, if you're in Psych, if you're working with patients, you know, coming in and out of anesthesia, patients with delirium. So many reasons why somebody could be an altered state or even just shock trauma. You know, emergency Nursing. And Nurses often are with patients for prolonged periods of time. You know, offering their caring, healing presence." ~ Dr. Stephanie Van Hope DNP, RN, NC-BCAh-Ha MomentsPsychedelic medicine is becoming more mainstream, and Nurses are stepping up willingly to lead and support their patients, clients and communitiesNurses are perfectly aligned to lead and work in psychedelic medicine as they are often with patients in altered states of consciousness throughout a shiftSacred medicine, also connected to entheogens, because they can help create a link to God within or to experience God within and the use of rituals and traditions to connect with the DivineNurses, you can absolutely take your passions and your knowledge and use both to create courses, programs, concepts and ideas that you know in your heart and will support fellow humans (and yourself) on life's journeyLinks and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastIntegrative Nurse Coach Certificate Program Return to Roots course pageAJN Psychedelics Article:  Penn, A., Dorsen, C.

Together We Can Stop Shame and Blame in Nursing-Kristy Meyer RN, BSN, NC-BC Highlights“I feel like self-care is often discussed in a way like, well, you're burned out, it's because you're not doing self-care, or you're burned out, that means you're not resilient.And I feel like there's a lot of shame and blame in there, when really, we work in really tough environments, and we see really hard things, and a lot of times we have a lot of defensive mechanisms, I believe, like shielding ourselves from that, not feeling some of the feelings, and that's a good skill at times, because that's what you need to do to get through your work shift.But internalizing a lot of feelings and not taking care of your own basic needs just leads to a lot of health problems for us as Nurses.” ~Kristy Meyer RN, BSN, NC-BCAh Ha MomentsShame and blame are evident in discussions about self-care.  Like the things you're doing daily to help yourself aren't good enough.  It's important to change that narrativeIt's easier for Nurses to receive assistance when they can connect with a fellow Nurse, especially for health and wellness coachingIt can be difficult for Nurses to identify they are burned out and need help, because they are sooo good at caring for othersYou are powerful beyond measure and have the capacity to healLinks and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coach Academy INCCP CourseIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastCultivating Shifts Integrative Health Nurse Coaching and EducationKristy's emailKristy's Facebook*****Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integr Our mission is to provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integr Our mission is to provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting Thank you for listening.

"I finally did find my purpose, and my purpose is to nurture an atmosphere of unlimited potential for those around me. And when I typed those words out, I cried, and I still get emotional about it, because I'm like, you know what?It doesn't matter what situation, what relationship, what Nursing field I work in. It doesn't even matter if I'm a Nurse, a teacher, a stay at home mom. My purpose can be fulfilled through every single thing that I do.

Right? Once I started to learn that language, I realized that it had been something I've really suffered with my whole life.Through Nurse Coaching and all the tools that I learned in my Nurse Coaching program, I was able to start to guide my private clients and my debriefing clients through that process where I think, again, just opening up the conversation, you know?And making people feel like they're less alone.

Ah-Has“There's so much that needs to be done, so much change that needs to happen. How will we ever do it? And then I step back and it's like, one Nurse at a time, one situation at a time, one ripple will start making that change. And then it doesn't seem so overwhelming, I think.” ~Karen Day, MSN, RN, NC-BC We can make change, one Nurse at a time, one situation at a timeOur younger Nurses are training younger Nurses as preceptors, teachers, and mentors.  Many of them don't have lots of experience.  How can we support them with more grace, acceptance and resourcesNursing needs to create a culture shift to truly support each other without judgement.  We can do this by honoring our past, learning from it, acknowledging it and shifting towards more self-care, resources, and each otherThe pressure of perfection does not always support us and can be a pathway to burnout, and Nurses leaving the professionCreating sacred spaces, where anything goes, where anything can be said, where it is safe to share and discuss.  This is different than a route cause analysis, or a clinical debrief, however… there is potential to create a sacred space in those areas too!Acknowledge the strengths in each other.  Acknowledge that you see another Nurse struggling, and ask them how you can helpWhat can help you feel better?  Mindfulness?  Movement?

Debriefing to Heal Nurses- Tara Ryan Kosmas, MSN, RN, NC-BC, CHSE, SOAR“It's the backbone of how Debriefing the Front Lines kind of defines Nurse Coaching. We as humans are this collection of stories, and Nurse Coaching enables the client to connect with themselves through this intentional dialogue that creates meaning and acceptance in the story, during the good, the bad, and the painful parts.” ~Tara Ryan Kosmas, MSN, RN, NC-BC, CHSE, SOAR We must talk about the suffering and trauma we experience as Nurses, even if it is difficultAlone is no longer enough.  Find colleagues, organizations and people who support you, pay for debriefing and coaching if your organization does not offer itIt's time to put yourself fist, in a loving, no-judgment wayCumulative caretaking trauma is a result of ongoing, overexposure, day in and day out, to abnormal and traumatic events, with no time for acknowledgement, discussion, processing, and recovery, that leads to emotional, physical, and spiritual suffering. Part of the trauma Nurses face as a result of COVID, was a feeling that our systems betrayed us.  For example, lack of PPE and resources, Nurses having to work at the bedside while other professions did not, drastically changing protocols without much noticePsychological first aid, peer support and debriefing can be offered by Nurse Coaches to prevent burnout and improve turnoverNurse Coaching:  Integrative Approaches for Health and Wellbeing TextbookDebriefing the Front Lines, IncIntegrative Nurse Coach Academy Integrative Nurse Coach Certificate Program ++++++ Thank you for listening.
