emotions sublimated into love. With this in mind, we should look at people
around us, people who are in love. Ask to yourself, Why are they in love? Then,

which attention is withdrawn from the outside world and is concentrated on
mental, sensory, and physiological experiences. When a hypnotist induces a

vary from a light state close to waking, to a profound state of

Words: 2270 - Pages: 9.... to person, goals of nursing and the nursing process.
According to Fawcett, this position is a simplistic solution to a difficult
problem. Nursing, with its limited experience with metaparadigms and conceptual
models, is not ready for restrictions on its ways of thinking. It's my belief
