- Reflect on your personal and professional holistic nursing journey and discuss how it affects who you are today.
- How have you integrated holistic nursing principles into your personal life? How have you integrated holistic nursing principles into your professional life?
- Think of an example from your professional nursing practice in which you can apply the concepts you have learned about this week in your readings from the text.
