I am quite surprised at the resistance to be open to other forms of treatment and care. I have been doing a lot of reading and experimenting with all different forms of alternative medicine. It works! The first thing is to be open to possibilities, and I am seeing a lot of resistance here in this thread. The other is to educate yourself more on it before you slam the door on it. Alternative care comes from energy, love and connection, which I believe is why most nurses got into this profession in the first place. Unfortunately our health care system and stress has hardened a lot of people. In my eyes it is sad. I feel the pain that people are carrying and only wish for you that you would stop, breathe and quiet the body and mind for a moment to see where you really are. If at this point, you are saying I am full of &%$# then I rest my case. I wish you well all the same. For those of you who are more open to this, or at least curious, watch a movie called "What the Bleep do we know", available at most video stores, as well as "The Secret" which you can order on line from http://www.thesecret.tv/ If you take time to notice, there is a real shift in the world. People are coming back to basics. The kinds of movies coming out are more spiritual ie: the Da Vinci code, Celestine Prophecy etc and the kinds of books written by others such as Wayne Dyer, Eckhart Tolle are talking more about our inner truth and relying less on the exterior world. Even leadership books such as Inspire by Lance Secretan speak about how much people are looking for love, truth and connection. If we don't change our ways and open up our minds, the world cannot change. We are the catalysts of change. There is no mistake we are where we are right now and it is not wrong or right. It just is. My request: be open, be curious, be ready to learn and then make up your own mind. Thank you for opening up this discussion. It is an opportunity for us to learn about and from each other. Namaste!

Nurse wrote in the patient's chart: "Fed patient. Patient spat on me. I spat back." Ha ha...some people are really digging their own grave. This nurse got fired after trying to sell raffle tickets to patients for a wheel chair raffle that did not exist.

I'm really curious as to why nobody has responded. When I speak to nurses they all say that there is no where to get together with other nurses and share. No physical place. They say they would love to form a circle of nurses who want to support each other as people sharing the same profession. Is this true for you? I am lost as to where to reach out and let nurses know that I am willing to facilitate such a circle for free. What is it nurses really want? What would help you?

Hello all you magnificent nurturing human/spiritual beings! Who is nurturing you? Who is listening to you? Who really cares about how you feel? I do! I want to connect with Toronto Nursing Professionals who are ready to meet face to face and listen to each other. This is not a bitching circle but a place to be heard, loved and honoured for all that we are...A place to share, listen and support each other. I am also looking at creating a teleclass in the future. Through my research I have found that 60% of nurses are not happy, overworked, stressed, depressed etc etc. I see that there are places for these nurses to go if they are addicted to drugs or alcohol, but I have not yet seen a place for nursing professionals to come together before reaching a personal crisis. Who's curious, hesitant or ready? I am looking forward to your response. Coach Patch
