Download or read book Reflection for Nursing Life written by John McKinnon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-01-29 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decades, reflection has taken centre stage in nursing education but it is easy to get stuck in a superficial cycle of storytelling and self-examination, without getting any further insights into your own practice and abilities. Reflection for Nursing Life starts with a basic introduction to reflective practice and moves through to look at more critical perspectives, with guidance for reflecting on the complex realities of practice. This accessible text is designed to support a deeper understanding of the value of reflection and its relationship with the needs of modern practice. Beginning with discussions of self-awareness and the reflective cycle, it goes on to explore ideas about critical incidents, critical reflection models and transformational learning. It integrates cutting-edge neuro-scientific research and thinking about emotional labour and intelligence in healthcare into mainstream reflective practice, drawing on both new and established ways of guiding learning and professional judgment. Reflection for Nursing Life includes numerous exemplar reflective narratives, diagrams and exercises to help the reader identify their strengths and weaknesses, whilst tips for overcoming weaknesses and developing strengths are also provided. It is the ideal text for nursing students and practitioners looking to improve their reflective practice skills.

Book excerpt: Within a single captivating narrative, John Bonner combines an intensely personal memoir of scientific progress and an overview of what we now know about living things. Bonner, a major participant in the development of biology as an experimental science, draws on his life-long study of slime molds for an understanding of the life cycle-the foundation of all biology.

Download or read book Gerotranscendence written by Lars Tornstam, PhD and published by Springer Publishing Company. This book was released on 2005-06-20 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the 2006 GREAT GERONTOLOGY AWARD for outstanding contribution to gerontological research by the Swedish Gerontological Society Received a VALUE GROUND AWARD from the journal Aldreomsorg (Old Age Care) Expanding upon his earlier writings, Dr. Tornstam's latest book explores the need for new theories in gerontology and sets the stage for the development of his theory of gerotranscendence. This theory was developed to address what the author sees as a perpetual mismatch between present theories in social gerontology and existing empirical data. The development towards gerotranscendence can involve some overlooked developmental changes that are related to increased life satisfaction, as self-described by individuals. The gerotranscendent individual typically experiences a redefinition of the Self and of relationships to others and a new understanding of fundamental existential questions: The individual becomes less self-occupied and at the same time more selective in the choice of social and other activities. There is an increased feeling of affinity with past generations and a decreased interest in superfluous social interaction. The individual might also experience a decrease in interest in material things and a greater need for solitary "meditation.î Positive solitude becomes more important. There is also often a feeling of cosmic communion with the spirit of the universe, and a redefinition of time, space, life and death. Gerotranscendence does NOT imply any state of withdrawal or disengagement, as sometimes erroneously believed. It is not the old disengagement theory in new disguise. Rather, it is a theory that describes a developmental pattern beyond the old dualism of activity and disengagement. The author supports his theory with insightful qualitative in-depth interviews with older persons and quantitative studies. In addition, Tornstam illustrates the practical implications of the theory of gerotranscendence for professionals working with older adults in care settings. A useful Appendix contains suggestions of how to facilitate personal development toward gerotranscendence. For Further Information, Please Click Here!

Download or read book Beneath the Moon s Reflection written by Mackenzie Lodimus and published by Mackenzie Lodimus. This book was released on 2024-07-21 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part I: Battling the Como’s. “Beneath the Moon’s Reflection” opens in the serenity of night, with the moon hanging like a silver coin on a velvet canvas, throwing a meditative radiance over the protagonist’s house. You, this lone figure, stand by the window, a vessel of churning emotions exposed to the thoughtful silence of 2 a.m. During these silent hours, the mind confronts its fundamental defects and issues. For as long as you can remember, life has been a never-ending game of ping-pong, alternating between thrilling successes and shattering failures. Each effort has left you exhausted and scarred, and the desire to give up has persisted in your mind. However, a persistent light within you refuses to extinguish. Fueled by a symphony of tears, laughter, joy, and sadness, this flame symbolizes your unwavering determination. In this very introspective section, you begin on a trip through the maze of your emotions. The moon, a silent witness to your evolution, symbolizes optimism and rejuvenation. Through meaningful discussions with the cosmos, you realize that happiness cannot be found but must be produced from the inside. You know that life is not a war to be won, but an adventure to be had. In its immensity, the universe is not an opponent but rather a companion on your journey, providing you with the insight you need to pursue your route to pleasure. Part II: The Beauty of Death The narrative switches to investigate the concept of death, which is typically cloaked in fear and mystery. However, this book section approaches death from a new angle, seeing it as a potential source of beauty and release. Death, while often regarded as the great unknown, can also be viewed as a respite from the difficulties and tribulations of daily life. It is the ultimate freedom, freeing people from their commitments in life and giving them a new perspective on the inevitability of death. The inquiry broadens to encompass the “Rules of Death,” a sophisticated set of guidelines that regulate this newfound knowledge. Death, like life, has its own set of rules. The taboo of willfully killing oneself is central to these ideas, emphasizing the significance of accepting the natural flow of existence. This prohibition encourages people to recognize their path’s importance and let the universe unfold as it should. In this section, the protagonist explores the emotional and spiritual dimensions of death, recognizing the loss and pain that come with losing loved ones. However, by acknowledging the beauty of death, sorrow can be transformed into a celebration of life and the journey beyond this world.
