RT @NursingLink: @joyceharrellrn you can be well mentally and spiritually but someitmes not physically #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN

@NursingLink @joyceharrellrn you can be well mentally and spiritually but someitmes not physically ... & vice versa! #ivchat Chemosabe
Q2: What areas do you believe make up the wellness spectrum? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
Q1: So people who have illness can actually be well? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @joyceharrellrn: Q2: What areas do you believe make up the wellness spectrum? #IVchat IVchat
@joyceharrellrn they can be mentally #ivchat NursingLink
T1 /2 I think that we would find health/wellness to be subjective and relative...I feel like sh!t coz I have could, but oh ... #ivchat Chemosabe
RT @joyceharrellrn: Q1: So people who have illness can actually be well? #IVchat InfusionNurse
Q2: Any ideas on the different aspects of wellness? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN

RT @chemosabe: ...u live with COPD and 90% humidity and Temps >90F #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @InfusionNurse: Q1 - shldnt everything be in balance to be well? That's what I am getting at... :) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
@joyceharrellrn my guesses would be spiritual, mental, and physical wellness sums it up? #ivchat NursingLink
Q2: I am going to give a few areas: breathing, moving, eating,work, play, finding meaning, communcating #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @NursingLink: @joyceharrellrn my guesses would be spiritual, mental, and physical wellness sums it up? Yes, and more. #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @joyceharrellrn: Q2: I am going to give a few areas: breathing, moving, eating,work, play, finding meaning, communcating #IVchat InfusionNurse
RT @InfusionNurse: @joyceharrellrn If one area of the body isnt well, it affects the others... (yes, that's my Q3... :) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
All work and no play = not always good... #IVchat InfusionNurse
@joyceharrellrn tell me more! i'm interested! #ivchat NursingLink

Stats just realised in OZ, show that workers in my state, Queensland, work the longest weeks in the country at ave of 50 hrs / wk #ivchat Chemosabe
I know that doesn't compare to up there, but our industrial relations gives us a 38hr week! #ivchat Chemosabe
not good..RT @chemosabe: Stats in OZ, show that workers in, Queensland, work the longest weeks in the country at ave of 50 hrs / wk #IVchat InfusionNurse
RT @joyceharrellrn: Q3: So as you know, someone already guessed this one... :) #IVchat IVchat
Why is it that nurses work too much? #IVchat InfusionNurse
RT @InfusionNurse: Why is it that nurses work too much? #IVchat IVchat
and dont take good care of themselves? RT @InfusionNurse: Why is it that nurses work too much? #IVchat InfusionNurse
@infusionnurse Why is it that nurses work too much? Could it be we rescue others, but not ourselves? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
good point RT @NursingLink: @InfusionNurse i think my mental wellness would be in the dumps if i worked 50 hours a week #IVchat IVchat
that stat, was not nurses, necessarily, but all workers...just to clarify #ivchat Chemosabe
Q4. Let's get personal. In what area/areas of wellness did you feel more balance is needed (when you looked at the areas) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
@chemosabe ..u mean nurses could be working more? #IVchat InfusionNurse
RT @joyceharrellrn: Q4. Lets get personal. In what area/areas of wellness did you feel more balance is needed (when looked at areas) #IVchat IVchat
Q4: This is for each person, not as a group. What areas do you feel you are out of balance in? Eating, work, moving, breathing? etc #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
@chemosabe its 40/wk here.. #IVchat InfusionNurse
yes, how to find time 4 that..RT @joyceharrellrn: Q4: So most are agreed that more play time is needed? #IVchat InfusionNurse
T4 personally had episode of work caused depression last year, took 4 months off work & still have counselling...but not meds...yay #ivchat Chemosabe
RT @chemosabe: T4 personally had episode of work caused depression took 4 months off work & still have counselling...not meds...yay #IVchat IVchat
How do you get more "me" time w/o feeling guilty? #ivchat NursingLink
it's 36h/w here. with 8h shifts. #IVChat FrisoRaemaekers
@chemosabe ..hope all is well now..sorry to hear that.. #IVchat InfusionNurse
@NursingLink Can I give you permission to allow yourself more "me" time without feeling guilty? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
T5 i am egocentric, so having enough me time isn't issue, it is changing focus to being inclusive of fam and friends! #ivchat Chemosabe
T5 i am egocentric, so having enough me time isn't issue, it is changing focus to being inclusive of fam and friends! #ivchat Chemosabe
@joyceharrellrn I guess? #ivchat NursingLink
Q5 I do well with visualizing...but reality interrupts and its all back to same old stuff.. #IVchat InfusionNurse
Getting inspirated from other persons in Health Care innovation. That's giving me energy! #IVChat FrisoRaemaekers
@chemosabe OK, so your balance need is more family time. See, it is all very individualized. #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @FrisoRaemaekers: Getting inspirated from other persons in Health Care innovation. Thats giving me energy! #IVchat IVchat
@NursingLink Yes, give yourself permission right now. Take a deep breath! #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @FrisoRaemaekers: Getting inspirated from other persons in Health Care innovation. Thats giving me energy! #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
@chemosabe ..esp w/ the holidays...its gonna be harder... #IVchat InfusionNurse
Q5. So has everyone visualized what it would look like to balance the area that you personally feel needs balancing? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
Q5...visualizing warm sunny weather... #IVchat InfusionNurse
@InfusionNurse oh yeah mrs is already hammering me...lol...coping mech #ivchat Chemosabe
RT @joyceharrellrn: Q5.has everyone visualized what it would look like to balance the area that you personally feel needs balancing? #IVchat IVchat
Feast or famine: FT employees stretched, and the rest of us have way too much "me" time... #IVchat swan5675
so instead on focusing on the stress of the holidays...what would help? #IVchat InfusionNurse
Q6: Are you MOTIVATED to change that area in your life you felt needed more balance? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @swan5675: Feast or famine: FT employees stretched, and the rest of us have way too much "me" time... #IVchat InfusionNurse
@swan5675 Hi Deb, welcome.. #IVchat IVchat
You've have reflect, regularly. Asking the question: is there a balance in my life, and am I enjoying it. #IVChat FrisoRaemaekers

RT @FrisoRaemaekers: Youve have reflect, regularly. Asking the question: is there a balance in my life, and am I enjoying it. #IVchat IVchat
@FrisoRaemaekers Yes, love this advice. Regular self-reflection #ivchat NursingLink
Q6: Motivation is key. If you identify an issue, but aren't motivated to make the change, you need to find what you are motivated #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
Just put yourself first. I think that is the hardest step. #ivchat NursingLink
Yeah... sometimes one must step off the merry-go-round and take a good look #IVchat swan5675
RT @NursingLink: @FrisoRaemaekers Yes, love this advice. Regular self-reflection (yes, personalizing it) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
always wep 4 nurses..RT @NursingLink: Just put yourself first. I think that is the hardest step. #IVchat InfusionNurse
RT @NursingLink: Just put yourself first. I think that is the hardest step. (you cannot give if you do not have to give) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @swan5675: Yeah... sometimes one must step off the merry-go-round and take a good look #IVchat IVchat
RT @IVchat: RT @swan5675: Yeah... sometimes one must step off the merry-go-round and take a good look #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
I hear people say taking time off 4 the holidays is stressful...so stress at work and stress at home..can't get away.. #IVchat InfusionNurse
T6 yes talking with counsellor exactly about this stuff! #ivchat Chemosabe
RT @chemosabe: T6 yes talking with counsellor exactly about this stuff! #IVchat IVchat
Self reflection, with colleagues? with friends? with your family or all by yourself? What do you think? #IVChat FrisoRaemaekersThat's why we are all such great nurses... selfless. Old habits are hard to break. Am motivated, but taking the action not easy... swan5675
#IVchat
RT @FrisoRaemaekers: Self reflection, with colleagues? with friends? with your family or all by yourself? What do you think? #IVchat IVchat
RT @swan5675: Thats why we are all such great nurses..selfless.Old habits are hard to break.Am motivated,taking the action not easy. #IVchat IVchat
RT @joyceharrellrn: When you realize the plane is going down, and you cant save others until you save yourself,view changes. #IVchat swan5675
RT @joyceharrellrn: When u realize the plane is going down, and u cant save others until u save urself, it changes the perspective. #IVchat IVchat
RT @joyceharrellrn: @swan5675, this is what we are going to talk about tonight, exactly... #IVchat InfusionNurse
A7 Absolutely! #IVchat swan5675
T7 ell yeah...what am I going to get out of it, how easy to maintain, how much effort required? #ivchat Chemosabe
RT @joyceharrellrn: Q7: Do you find when you set goals to change it is difficult to follow through? #IVchat IVchat
A7 I get so mad at myself... almost like there is another me, totally disobedient. #IVchat swan5675
cant wait RT @joyceharrellrn: @chemosabe You are going to laugh when you see how easy it is... #IVchat InfusionNurse
Listen very carefully to what I am about to say about setting steps toward your goals. #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
A7 In my case, need to figure out why I'd rather help others, to the extent that I do not help myself... #IVchat swan5675
@joyceharrellrn r u selling something? #ivchat Chemosabe
You are all going to laugh when you set your first goal... #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @joyceharrellrn: Listen very carefully to what I am about to say about setting steps toward your goals. #IVchat IVchat
Q8. Have you considered taking VERY SMALL steps toward your JoyceHarrellRN
goals or areas you need to change? #IVChat
RT @IVchat: RT @joyceharrellrn: So we are going to talk a little about rescuing ourselves tonight... :) #IVchat Shegeekxdesign
RT @joyceharrellrn: Q8. Have you considered taking VERY SMALL steps toward your goals or areas you need to change? #IVchat IVchat
@FrisoRaemaekers That is why focusing on individualized goals is important... #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
setting goals isn't hard for me, it's reaching them and staying on course. #ivchat NursingLink
@nursinglink. Give me a goal you have... #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @NursingLink: setting goals isnt hard for me, its reaching them and staying on course. #IVchat IVchat
Setting goals and staying on course is most people's problem. #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
@joyceharrellrn i definitely thinking about it, but putting that thought into action is hard #ivchat NursingLink
Yeah... exercize... the intentional kind #IVchat swan5675
RT @NursingLink: @joyceharrellrn trying to exercise everyday after work. #IVchat IVchat
OK. We are going to talk about @NursingLink goal to exercise everyday. Q. What do you do now? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
First, must motivate myself to trade bed time for exercise time... #IVchat swan5675
@chemosabe just bought a new bike. it's sitting in my apartment! #ivchat NursingLink
like that thought...RT @chemosabe: buy new gear as external motivation #IVchat InfusionNurse
@NursingLink So you have a new bike? Have you been on it yet? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @IVchat: RT @joyceharrellrn: Listen very carefully to what I am about to say about setting steps toward your goals. #IVchat Shegeekxdesign
so is it time or motivation? #IVchat InfusionNurse
RT @swan5675: First, must motivate myself to trade bed time for exercise time... (no, it won't be that extreme) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
LOL...RT @swan5675: I actually have a well-stocked exercise room...Pilates equipment, the works. I dry clothes in there..... #IVchat InfusionNurse
sorry that shoud have been waist, not waste, but maybe appropriate #ivchat Chemosabe
So with @NursingLink bike. Can you promise yourself you will get on that bike and ride for One Minute tonight? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @joyceharrellrn: So with @NursingLink bike. Can you promise yourself you will get on that bike and ride for One Minute tonight? #IVchat InfusionNurse
Wow.. anybody can do 1 minute..... never thought of that #IVchat swan5675
RT @swan5675: Wow.. anybody can do 1 minute..... never thought of that #IVchat InfusionNurse
Although, I must admit. Getting the bike out and riding in the dark is such a tiring thought. #ivchat NursingLink
RT @FrisoRaemaekers: Sometimes its good to get out of course. It can be inspiring, it brings you other ideas... to change course #IVchat IVchat
Listen carefully. Did I set up ANY resistance when I asked if she could ride the bike for ONE minute tonight? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @NursingLink: Although, I must admit. Getting the bike out and riding in the dark is such a tiring thought. #IVchat IVchat
RT @chemosabe: once ur on there u generally keep going, tht is the point #IVchat IVchat
I typically bite off more than I can chew, then I avoid... too much change all at once. #IVchat swan5675
RT @swan5675: I typically bite off more than I can chew, then I avoid... too much change all at once. #IVchat InfusionNurse
RT @swan5675: I typically bite off more than I can chew, then I avoid... too much change all at once.(ding ding ding, that's it!!!) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @joyceharrellrn: RT @chemosabe: once ur on there u generally keep going, tht is the point (nope, not the point) #IVchat IVchat
Whatever goal you are wanting to focus on.. make that first step laughingly small.If you don't laugh at the step, it is too big... #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
@joyceharrellrn sorry not the point...once ur on the bike or run or swim, it is easy to keep going... it is startting that is hard #ivchat Chemosabe
You bypass the part of the body that has the fight or flight response... #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
The trick is, I see, to start out small so that returning again and again is a welcome thought, rather than dread... #IVchat swan5675
And as you SLOWLY increase the steps, you continually bypass that resistance response #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @swan5675:The trick is,I see,to start out small so that returning again and again is a welcome thought, rather than dread (yes) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @swan5675: My "all or nothing" mentality at home has been my worst enemy... we dont have to be perfect, just "be" #IVchat IVchat
if were talking purely exercise and extrinsic motivation...endomondo as an app to monitor ur progress and post to world! #ivchat Chemosabe
So, another key, is accountability. So, I want each of you to DM me your personal step toward your larger goal. #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
For dieting...like this one..http://www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/ #IVchat InfusionNurse
RT @joyceharrellrn: You can do this with ANY goal! Do not have an "all or nothing" mentality. You are "getting" this @swan5675 #IVchat IVchat
Yes, it works for anything. People who smoke? How much do they smoke? one pk/day. Can they smoke one pk/day, minus one cig each day? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
It starts out slow. But builds over time. Resistance is bypassed, and you end up with steps for permanent change... #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
first, allow me time, don't feel guilty, motivated, take small steps... #IVchat InfusionNurse
Thanks Joyce I am in...just have to come up with the measure, objective and time frame... #ivchat Chemosabe
RT @InfusionNurse: first, allow me time, dont feel guilty, motivated, take small steps... #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @chemosabe: Thanks Joyce I am in...just have to come up with the measure, objective and time frame... #IVchat IVchat
Have been doing a lot of "nothing" after work :( #IVchat swan5675
Yes, but make that first step, laughable. I really mean it. If it draws resistance you won't follow through with it. #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
We are almost into the hour..any parting thoughts?? #IVchat IVchat
RT @swan5675: Have been doing a lot of "nothing" after work :( (we all do, and allow yourself to not shame yourself) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
tweeting someitmes...RT @swan5675: Have been doing a lot of "nothing" after work :( #IVchat InfusionNurse
Q10. Has this helped you find a way to find wellness (or at least one small step)? #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
RT @JoyceHarrellRN Self respect is part of wellness. Don't shame yourself for unreached goals.Love yourself,allow yourself to BE.... #IVChat Princesskhym
RT @swan5675: I know exactly what I want to do. This is so incredibly timely for me! What is DM? (direct message so it is private) #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
Just a great year for #IVchat - Thank you @infusionnurse - I do believe you started the 1st specialty clinical chat. Cheers! PhilBaumann

A10 Yes.. even though seemingly simple, this has been VERY helpful... you have NO IDEA just how much I needed this... #IVchat swan5675
RT @NursingLink: Some great tips - thanks Joyce! You are welcome! #IVChat JoyceHarrellRN
