Bullying in Nursing – Part 2

May 13, 2017 by beneaththestitches Leave a Comment

Workplace bullying is something we have all witness or been involved in. There is an abundance of evidence that shows the workplace is hostile for many nurses. It affects roughly 11% of all nurses at some stage. Therefore, I felt it was important to write my first post <bullying in nursing> We need to be … [Read more…]

Finished SMITTEN

May 7, 2017 by beneaththestitches Leave a Comment

  I finished my Smitten Quilt! It measures 160 x 125cm I love the way it turned out, sort of scrappy but still organised. It looks complicated but like any project… you “eat the elephant one bite at a time”. It is just lots of hexagons pieced together. To completed the quilt, you will need … [Read more…]

Negative Ego

April 30, 2017 by beneaththestitches Leave a Comment

  Creativity should be our natural state of being. Creativity is how we express ourselves. However, It is important to understand that nobody can make us “creative.” Each person on this planet is unique. Therefore, each one of us sees the world differently. From that point of view, there is space for every person on … [Read more…]

Bullying in Nursing

April 25, 2017 by beneaththestitches 9 Comments

  I have been meeting up socially with a few nursing friends recently. Talk always turns to work of course. I have become so sad by discussions of multiple hospitals and issues with bullying. We often seem to see it as bullying as outsiders looking in and discussing the issue/story but at the time it … [Read more…]

What is Creative Flow

April 21, 2017 by beneaththestitches 1 Comment

  “To Forget oneself – to lose oneself in the music, in the moment – that kind of absorption seems to be at the heart of every endeavour” – Dani Shapiro Have you ever lost yourself in a creative moment in time? You were working away, looked up and realised that time has just slipped … [Read more…]

I LOVE handwriting my posts

April 8, 2017 by beneaththestitches Leave a Comment

Using our keyboards saves us lots of precious time, but writing by hand has lots of benefits I have never been the sort of person who can just type up a whole essay. At school or uni, I always had lots of little notes and post-its that came together to form my ideas and essays … [Read more…]

April WIPs – where am I at…

Just Start

March 24, 2017 by beneaththestitches Leave a Comment

Just a short post about getting STARTED and how simple it really is. You don’t need someone to tell you to START your work, you are worthy. You just need to believe in yourself, just get started and don’t stop. Don’t aim to be perfect just aim to START. Maybe what you are trying to … [Read more…]
