Reiki Module Analysis

Improved Essays
This summary is intended to analyze the Reiki Module (2013) along with the article published by Henneghan & Schnyer (2015), according to the concepts of the CAREE Process (O’Brien Lewis, 2016) of nursing caring. Reiki therapy is known as spiritual, vibrational practice working on inner energy and magnetic fields and promoting balance and wellbeing in humans (Reiki Module, 2013).

    There are many different approaches in developing a relationship with patients, one of which being holistic, patient-centered care. Holistic care is described as “all nursing practice that has healing the whole person as its goal” (American Holistic Nurses’ Association, 1998, Description of Holistic Nursing). A holistic approach allows the nurse to view the patient as a whole, as opposed to focusing in on one small aspect. By viewing the entire person, we are able to provide spiritual, medical, and any other type of care that may be necessary in aiding the recovery of our patients. “Holism involves studying and understanding the interrelationships of the bio-psycho-social-spiritual dimensions of the person, recognizing that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts,” (Dossey, 2010, p.14), which further emphasizes that by using a holistic nursing approach, we are able to take not only a patient’s physical well-being into consideration, but also the emotional, spiritual, and mental well-being of our…

    Introduction Concept Analysis, though a powerful tool, was only adapted to be used in nursing towards the end of the last Century. In 1986, Walker and Avant adapted the process, that John Wilson developed in 1960 for analyzing concepts, to be used in nursing (McEwen, 2014, p. 58). Prior to this time, there were no clear processes laid out to define the analysis of concepts in the nursing practice. Walker and Avant based their process “on Wilson’s method and clarified his methods so that graduate students could apply them to examine phenomena of interest to nurses” (McEwen, 2014, p. 58).…

    The Loss of the Manas Throughout Yogacara, we learn about the mind, and how our sense of self disrupts our process of 'enlightenment, ' for lack of a better term. We must disregard ourselves, or rather, the selfishness of our well-being, the ego, prior to reaching higher understanding of the world and the life outside of our understanding. While there exist three 'transformations, ' we shall focus mainly on the second 'transformation, ' which relies on the transformation of the manas.

    “Tidal Model”, focused on person-centred care, to deal with their problems by identifying it and providing proper care (Buchanan-Barker & Barker, 2005). “Tidal model” consists of three major domains which are “self”, “world” and “others”. According to University of Birmingham (2008), the first domain “self” refers the values and beliefs of the patient, which a nurse should document as it will exactly reflect the patient’s thought for instance, a figure of speech or some phrases. The second domain “world” refers to their introspection or feelings from their own perspective. The final domain, “others”, refers to the society, professionals, family or services they have or needed in order to step them back to the community.…

The 'art' of providing care includes an aspect of caring that has metaphysical origins and connotations. It concerns all aspects of the human experience, physical, psychological, spiritual and social. The Gestalt approach to nursing and the inclusion of caring as a primary requisite is the heart of the concept of interactive theory as it applies to nursing and as presented by Ms. Henderson.…
