The Nursing Well | Nursing Blog and Wellness Resources

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being here.

Whether you stumbled across The Nursing Well by divine accident or came here on purpose, I am so grateful our paths have crossed.

This space was created with love, intention, and deep care.

For the nurses who give so much of themselves,

For the ones rediscovering their softness and strength,

For the souls seeking wellness, beauty, and balance in a busy world.

Thank you for taking time out of your day to read, reflect, and share this space with me.

Thank you for allowing me to speak from the heart and to be seen in my own healing journey.

And thank you for walking alongside me; not just as readers, but as kindred spirits.

I hope you leave here feeling a little more grounded, a little more inspired, and a lot more loved.

Here’s to softness, sacred rest, wholeness, and overflowing cups.

We deserve that, and so much more.

With gratitude and glow,

Mika

New Reflections, Ready when you are.

Your Health Is In Your Hands

There’s a poster I’ve seen so many times at work, you probably have too. It’s a simple image of two clean hands with the words: “Your health is in your hands.” At first glance, it’s a reminder about hand hygiene; wash before you eat, after you touch, before you care. But the more I looked at that poster, the more its message started to speak to me powerfully. Because truly… your health is in your hands. All of it. Physical health Yes, that means scrubbing for 20 seconds, clea

The Awakening: Be Brave and Keep Going

There comes a point where you wake up and realize… it’s time to stop talking about the glow-up and actually level all the way up. Not the aesthetic version. Not the daydream version. The real one. The woman who is grounded, consistent, and aware of her own power. I have been sitting in this quiet awakening lately, a deep, no-nonsense kind of clarity. It’s not loud. It’s not glamorous by any means. It’s the kind that meets you in the mirror and says, “Okay, sis… now what?” It’

The Whisper That Becomes a Roar

For those considering a career in nursing. Maybe it started as a whisper, a quiet stir inside of you when you saw a nurse care for a loved one. Or maybe it's been there all along, a gentle knowing that you are drawn to a calling bigger than yourself. Nursing is more than completing tasks or collecting vital signs; it's about meeting people where they are, holding space for their fears, their tears, their joy, and being a steady presence when the world feels fragile. Perhaps t

The Medicine of Tears

There’s something sacred about a good cry. Not the quick, polite kind: the soul cry. The kind that shakes loose the heaviness you’ve been holding in your chest and leaves you somehow softer, lighter, and more alive afterward. Today, I witnessed a mama’s version of that sacred release. She brought her sweet baby in for his immunizations, a routine visit, but one that always tugs at a mother’s heart. The moment that tiny needle touched his skin, she flinched. Tears welled up in

The Glow, The Grit & The Grace: A Note for the New Mommy

Dear New Mama, If you’re here, reading this with tired eyes and a full, tender heart… I just want to say: you are doing so much better than you think. No matter how this day went whether it was messy, magical, or somewhere in between your presence matters more than perfection ever could. The baby doesn’t need you to get it all right. They just need you. The real you. The you who shows up, even when your body aches. The you who quietly cries in the shower. The you who finds a

She's not rushing, She's rising.
Let's flow, glow, and grow together.

This ain't your average blog.

This is soul sanctuary wrapped in rose petals, Palo Santo smoke, and high-vibe realness.

For the nurse who's been pouring into everyone else.

For the woman who's ready to fill her own cup, stretch into her power, and bloom into rhythm with her own moonlight,

Welcome Home.

You will find affirmations that hit like a hug, rituals that feel like Sunday morning yoga, and stories that remind you that it is safe to play, to feel, to dance and be fully you.

The dolphin energy is strong.
The sparkle is real.

And your higher self is already clapping for you.
