4 Paradigm – Define Holistic Nursing

Holistic Nursing

Holistic Nursing is defined as “all nursing practice that has healing the whole person as its goal” (American Holistic Nurses’ Association, 1998).

Florence Nightingale, who is considered to be the founder of Holistic Nursing, taught nurses to focus on the principles of holism: unity, wellness and the interrelationship of human beings and their environment.

Zero Balancing is for ALL Nurses!

  • ZB principles and Holistic Nursing principles are similar
  • Holistic Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice 2nd Ed:

“Holistic nurses embrace a professional ethic of caring and healing that seeks to preserve the wholeness and dignity of self and others.” p. 11

“Holistic nurses do incorporate complementary/alternative/ integrative modalities (CAM) into clinical practice to treat people’s physiological, psychological, and spiritual needs.” p. 2

Holistic nursing provides a context in which nurses can consider, understand, and appreciate all the aspects of human experience that contribute to patterns of life, health and illness.” (Holistic Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice 2nd ed. p.5)

Study Guide p. 11
“Health refers to a person’s ability to interact with his environment and to integrate thinking, feeling, and processing of the information contained in all natural systems.”
Holistic Nursing Care: Theories and Perspectives p. 3 / “Thought, energy and matter are intimately related and interconnected. All information is expressed through vibrational patterns and frequencies. In ZB we can approach all Field information through touch.”

“In ZB we work with attention (concentration of awareness upon an object; a close or careful observing or listening)…All information is gathered in the present moment.”
The Wisdom of ZB p. 1
