Minding the Bedside: Nursing from the Heart of the Awakened Mind

Jerome Stone
4.9/5 (27475 ratings)
Description:Forward to the book, Minding the Bedside: Nursing from the Heart of the Awakened Mind. Minding the Bedside is a rare and timely work of art. Jerome Stone leads us on an illuminating and heart-opening exploration into the true nature of mind, presence, compassion and the healing relationship. Calling on his decades of experience in the nursing profession and his equally rich depth of study of mindfulness and non-dual spirituality, he weaves a magnificent fusion of teachings, stories and insights that will inspire any health care practitioner (not just nurses) to rediscover their art as a blessed opportunity to accelerate their own personal awakening. This book confronts head-on the big questions that all in the helping professions face: What does it mean to “show up”, to be present for another? How can I possibly be helpful in the face of unfathomable suffering or impossible circumstances? How can I hold my inner reactivity and what this patient triggers in me? What really is compassion? What is compassionate intention? And perhaps the biggest question of all, What really is this “I” that is doing this work in the first place? To address these questions and others Stone offers his own discoveries as well as gems from many of the world’s wisdom traditions, great spiritual teachers, and even scientific research into the nature of mind, meditation and consciousness. An especially timely contribution is his treatment of the subject of “healing environments” which is gaining traction as a concept for hospitals and other treatment settings to aspire to. For this he argues persuasively that the qualities of mindfulness (focus), meditative awareness (attention) and compassion (caring) in health care personnel are essential to the successful evolution of such programs. Finally, as a practical learning device, the book makes excellent use of summaries of key concepts at the end of each chapter, and provides guided exercises throughout that enable the reader to directly experience the teachings and cultivate the capacity to be a more present, clear and peaceful care provider. Minding the Bedside is an outstanding contribution that should be required reading for health care practitioners from all disciplines. --William Collinge, PhD, Director of the Touch, Caring and Cancer Program and author of Partners in Healing: Simple Ways to Offer Support, Comfort and Care to a Loved One Facing IllnessWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
