For the past several years, Tim Smith, BSN, RN, CH, has been teaching self-hypnosis and relaxation strategies to a population in need of relaxation - nurses themselves.
"Nursing is one of the most stressful professions, especially critical care," said Smith. "The night shift can be terrible for some people and it's always hard learning new medications, new techniques, new equipment, not to mention scheduling and getting along with colleagues. Going home can be stressful because then you're worried about kids, paying for the house, etc."
Listen to Smith guide you through a 5-minute Hypno Break, and learn the power of positive affirmations. And don't forget ... relax!
