Marjorie Anderson cherishes her career in being a holistic nurse, merging holistic care in allopathic settings. She is a Qualified Therapeutic TouchTeacher and enjoys her work with Ohio Heart of Healing, Inc. as an educator and facilitator. As a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Clinical Nurse Specialist (retired), she was an early advocate for practicing mental health nursing in medical centers steeped in the biomedical, physiological focused care of adult medical surgical and then later oncology patients. She integrated Therapeutic TouchÒ, reflexology, autogenic training, guided imagery, essential oils, music, art, and humor into her practice of mental health counseling. She now enjoys mentoring others in holistic nursing and encouraging those she has already mentored in fulfilling their own hopes and dreams. In her retirement phase, she continues to write and publish articles and chapters to further the theory and practice of holistic nursing. Marjorie enjoys her tai chi training and practice, traveling around the world, exploring new cultures, ways of healing, and new foods. She also has a passion for participating and supporting women in aviation, whether that is small two- or four-seater planes, biplanes, sea planes, or hot air balloons.
