The Clinical Insight: Neglecting Anxiety Produces Pain
By Carla Hay-Perdue, DNP, FAIS
In her latest feature for Contentment magazine, Dr. Carla Hay-Perdue shares a profound realization sparked by a personal health crisis. What began as a debilitating case of tooth pain—eventually diagnosed as the physical manifestation of unconscious stress and jaw clenching—became the catalyst for a deeper understanding of the mind-body connection.
Dr. Hay-Perdue uses this experience to advocate for a "paradigm shift" in how nursing professionals manage stress. Instead of viewing anxiety as an external force to be managed, she introduces the Three Principles of Mind, Thought, and Consciousness as a roadmap back to our innate resilience.
Why This Matters for Nurses:
|  |
Accessing Innate Wisdom: By quieting "analytical chatter" and connecting to a deeper "Universal Mind," nurses can navigate high-pressure shifts with a sense of calm that doesn't rely on "limited personal battery power."
"Stress management used to be my weak point. I realized that my feelings were always caused by my thoughts, not the situations themselves."

A One-Day Experience to Reconnect, Rebalance & Rise
Are you feeling the weight of the profession? Most "self-care" advice asks you to do more, but The Healing Shift is about doing less to achieve more. Join us on December 30, 2025, for a restorative, insight-driven day designed to help you return to yourself—without leaving the profession you love.
Through the lens of Nurse Coaching, we will explore the four pillars of a sustainable career:
Pillar 1: Foundation (Context & Human Experience) See where stress and burnout actually come from. 🩷 Takeaway: You heal others best when you start by healing yourself.
Pillar 2: Insight (How Change Happens) Understand why clarity—not effort—creates real change. 💚 Takeaway: Insight is not a luxury—it’s your best professional tool.
Pillar 3: Presence (Skill Without Technique) Experience how listening and connection emerge naturally. 💙 Takeaway: Presence creates healing for your patients and for you.
Pillar 4: Sustainability (A Way Forward in Nursing) See nurse coaching as a sustainable future, not an escape. 💛 Takeaway: The future of nursing belongs to those who design it.
