This is what nurses do. We care. A whole lot. Until we can’t care anymore. We work. A whole lot. Until we can’t work anymore. We suffer. We strive. We give. We forget to live. I am not Annette Tersigni. My name is Kady and I have temporarily taken over Annette’s blog (she knows I’m writing to you but doesn’t know what I’m about to say). I was a nurse. I held up the four…
Greetings, Cut to the chase. I had a biopsy about 10 days ago. They found a suspicious area in my right breast, from an earlier mammogram and ultrasound. Not a lump, still a small area of unusual tissue. The expert team from the hospital I worked at for almost 20 years performed the procedure. Then came the waiting game, Easter weekend was coming up and the imaging center, where I was to return to get…

Hola Beloved Soul, Yep, it’s been awhile. First, thanks for opening up this blog post. My sabbatical for my 70th birthday in 2021 is coming full circle. I took plenty of risks, riding a roller coaster of highs and lows. I took a delicious, daring chance and fell into a mature love story, all the while glamping on an obscure island. I learned how to band lobsters, cultivate oysters and enter a local seafood chowder…

Namaste, It is time to celebrate International Yoga Day! My love for yoga goes back over 50 years and I cannot imagine where my life would be without it. It was so good that I created an entire career out of it. The most gratifying part of being the founder of the YogaNurse movement is the joy of meeting, teaching and learning from other like-minded nurses who are creating positive transformations in their lives and…
Nurses are ministers and witnesses to suffering. The practice of centering is where we always begin. The practice of yoga, the practice of finding your divine inner self and connecting with one another. I truly believe that I’ve connected with every one of my YogaNurse students through divine intervention. I see you. I am honored to be present with you, share your pain and your joy as we traverse through our common interest in changing the world of…

Wow! It’s 2020! Whippee! The World Health Organization has designated 2020 as the “Year of the Nurse and Midwife”, in honor of the 200th birth anniversary of Florence Nightingale.

We want to thank all of the nurses who enthusiastically enquired about the course. Please…
From humble beginnings and a life filled with a variety of joy, triumph, vigor, hardships, pain and suffering, a movement was born – YogaNursing and the YogaNurse Model of Care. It was through the struggles in my life that I found my true calling. I was inspired by my son Julian, nurses, yoga teachers and leaders in holistic medicine to create YogaNursing. It began as a simple concept and over the years it took a…
