  1. starting own business??? sewing or diesel?

    HolisticNP replied to 4x4country's topic in Nurse Entrepreneurs, Innovators

    I've done my share of sewing, jewelry making and other crafty things. I find it good for my spirit. I learned to sew in high school, but I know that in many areas there are great community classes...

  2. Question for NPs: How long did you practice as an RN before persuing NP?

    HolisticNP replied to the sparrow's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I was an RN for about 21 years. I was barely 21 when I first became an RN, and slowly worked my way through school. I was able to get all kinds of different experience which actually helped me to...

  3. What do you pack for lunch??

    HolisticNP replied to eager1hasbegun's topic in Health, Stress Management

    I work 12 hours-0745-0815pm. I get 1/2 hour for lunch and (2 )15 minute breaks. I don't find this particularly healthy for me, but I've learned to work around it. I eat breakfast at home. I bring a...

  4. Nurses with their own web pages

    HolisticNP replied to debnky's topic in Nurse Entrepreneurs, Innovators

    I share 'information' rather than services on my website. You are right-with the technology we have, I'm sure many nurses have their own websites that work for their professional needs. You are also...

    HolisticNP replied to marnacla's topic in Nurse Entrepreneurs, Innovators

    Raw food nutrition specialist is a very interesting niche. Have you thought of a way to make some money teaching what you know about? There are so many health implications associated with nutrition,...

  6. Any entreprenurial nurses out there?

    HolisticNP replied to marnacla's topic in Nurse Entrepreneurs, Innovators

    Sure! I love to brainstorm with like-minded people. I've tried a variety of things, also-different nursing specialties and LNC. I enjoyed what I did, and I really went for it, but it never felt...

  7. Nurses with their own web pages

    HolisticNP replied to debnky's topic in Nurse Entrepreneurs, Innovators

    Hi- I market on the web, but I'm more of an infopreneur than IC now. I used the web to market when I did medical legal consulting, but I didn't know about some real important peices. I don't think I...

  8. How to become a holistic nurse?

    HolisticNP replied to LPNMeg06's topic in Holistic

    Hi- I'm new to the forums, so my reply to you is a bit late. Your question is a common one. I wondered the same thing, until I learned what being holistic really means. I've been certified in...

  9. Is it normal to feel this way? ;)

    HolisticNP replied to ERNurse752's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Taking on more responsibility (school) now and anticipating the stress of being a student again-especially clinicals was sure stressful for me. I had been a student for years because I got ADN when I...

  11. Tips on introducing holistic mentality to unit?

    HolisticNP replied to nursemae's topic in Holistic

    You are probably already doing it: lead by example. There were times I'm sure I was viewed as an oddity because of my basic philosophy of nursing and caring. Some of what you do might be very...

  12. Holistic RN or chiropractic?

    HolisticNP replied to abell's topic in Holistic

    The term holistic practitioner really describes a way of being and viewing others: body, mind and spirit. A holistic nurse or chiropractor (and others) can have a holistic practice if they care for...

  13. Is holistic nursing different from an RN?

    HolisticNP replied to birdy88's topic in Holistic

    I agree with the other responses. Being a holistic nurse is about how you believe and act, and it isn't reserved for your work life. It is about being truly present, and acknowledging that we are...

  14. I really need some advice...

    HolisticNP replied to newlvngrad's topic in Holistic

    You sound like me about 28 years ago and off and on since then. I didn't discover 'holistic nursing' until I was in my master's program about 13 years ago. I knew I had found my home. The real point,...
