Nursing from Within: A Fresh Alternative to Putting Out Fires and Self-Care Workarounds

At a time when health care is going through major change, nurses—known for being highly capable in a crisis—are being forced to take on more and more responsibilities. In this increasingly stressful environment, nurses need new ways to make sure they are taking care of themselves so they don’t succumb to the physical, mental, and emotional exhaustion of caring for everyone and everything else.

Nursing from Within: A Fresh Alternative to Putting Out Fires and Self-Care Workarounds offers the innovative solutions today’s nurses need.

Although it outlines the problems nurses face, this book is not about trying to change the working environment. Rather, it’s about altering inner perspectives. With boundless energy and passion, it addresses an element that’s largely missing from nursing self-care programs focusing on diet and health: the spiritual self.

Taking a holistic approach that incorporates spiritual and energy principles such as Reiki, Nursing from Within teaches you how to connect with your authentic self. Author Elizabeth Scala’s enthusiasm is contagious, as she shares proven and effective strategies for creating shifts in your perspective, empowering you to take on the challenges of nursing with a confidence and vitality that will bring the joy back to your chosen profession.

Sayings of Swami Kripalu: Inspiring Quotes from a Contemporary Yoga Master

Swami Kripalu was a remarkable man, a bridge between the traditions of ancient India and contemporary Western society. A yoga master renowned for the intensity of his spiritual practice and the depth of his compassion, Swami Kripalu came to the United States in 1977 where he spent the last four years of his life in residence at the original Kripalu Center founded by Yogi Amrit Desai in Sumneytown, Pennsylvania.

Primarily a compilation of quotes from Swami Kripalu’s four years in the West, this book also draws on translations of earlier talks and written works that remain unpublished in English. The introduction and commentary by Richard Faulds is provided to set a broad context in which the meaning of the quotes can be understood and applied to yoga practice.

Swami Kripalu was the inspiration behind Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in Lenox, Massachusetts, the largest yoga, health, and program center in North America.
