Hey, loves. Happy first Directors message from me! It’s been so fun becoming the Director of Ohna and I want to honor and thank Marina and the previous Directors for bringing the vision of a holistic nursing association to its fruitful current state. At first, it seemed overwhelming and daunting but with all things there is balance, homeostasis, and softening. As someone incredibly smart said- first gear is the hardest- and here we go!
We are incredibly blessed to have such a wonderful Board of Directors with vivacious energy and creative vision. We have used the beautiful structure that was put in place before us, that we are thankful for, and now we launch into the future. So very excited for our 16th annual conference- see information below. Our theme this year is Community Wellness: Cultivating Healing and Abundance together. What does that bring up for you? What's abundant for you?
16 has been a lucky number throughout my life and I can’t wait for this year’s conference. We have an amazing showcase of speakers, vendors, community offerings, healing sessions, and spaces for us all to come together. Let's continue our passion for nursing and tending to others, while we are learning and growing and taking care of ourselves.
I know we’re coming out of the winter and I hope we’re feeling renewed and ready to gather the energy of the growing seeds. I am a gardener and I love plants! Planting season is a way we can foster what serves us and what we want to give attention to. So take the message of the growing seed with you as we spring forward and use the vital energy you stored up this winter to support yourself in what you seek and cultivate. The budding flowers and plants that surround us are ways that we remember to connect with nature and ourselves. My request is for you to be proud of something that you’ve already done this year and to take that idea and sprinkle it with a little more water.
Our vision this year for engaging each other and elevating our community is active and we are super excited to connect with you all wonderful people in many different ways! As we honor the previous board and the structure that was in place, we lay overlay ideas of abundance and supporting ourselves, together. We support you in what you want to do and know you are boundless. We are all travelers on a cosmic journey, said Paul Coelho. So travel well this spring, travel within abundance, travel with heartfelt love, and I invite you to be curious about watering your own garden.
Happy Certified Nurses Day to all those out there!
Be well, Be happy. ~Abigail
