Document Summary
Nursing = healing profession (although many don"t view it as such) Key tool" in holistic caring is his/herself. Nurse healers report profound transformations and numinous experiences: having meaningful impact on client"s lives. Watson humans cannot be separated from self, other, nature, and the larger universe. The caring-healing paradigm is both metaphysical and transcendent with the co-evolving human in the universe [between patient and nurse]. The context calls for a sense of reference and sacredness with regard to life and all living things. : this is what nurse healing is. Caring is a sacred science that needs to include dimensions of: inter-subjectivity, transpersonal, sacredness, transformational, consciousness, morality. Overarching theme: walking two worlds, live and function in more than one reality, my existence is one of being in two worlds simultaneously ordinary reality and non-ordinary reality. Connection to other people: all these are good for emotional and mental health. A spiritual adventure where nurse healers explored non-ordinary realities.
