🫶 You Can Heal Even Without a Cure
In nursing school I was taught that you can heal even without a cure.
After years of real world experience, I believe this more than ever.
Cancer, autoimmune disease, chronic illness, and other life-altering diagnoses aren’t just physical events. They reverberate through a person’s identity, relationships, beliefs, and spirit. A diagnosis can spark questions like:
Why me? Who am I now? What really matters?
As nurses (and especially as nurse coaches) we are uniquely privileged to stand in that space. We witness not just symptoms, but the stories, fears, hopes, and meaning that come with them. We are trained to tend to the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. ✨
Emotional and spiritual well-being are not “extras” — they’re part of the healing process.
Chronic stress, anxiety, and emotional repression can weaken immune function and cellular repair. Meanwhile, practices that restore connection such as mindfulness, nature, breathwork, therapy, and community help improve quality of life and even clinical outcomes.
This is also where healing with psychedelics is emerging as a powerful modality. Studies from Johns Hopkins and NYU show that a single guided psilocybin session can help people navigating cancer experience:
Deep emotional release and peace
A sense of connection to something larger than themselves
A significant reduction in anxiety and depression
Renewed purpose and meaning
For many, it shifts the focus from fear of dying to a deeper celebration of living. đź’—
