I can't help spreading the "Scrubs"!
I just finished chatting with a friend who's currently a student nurse in Mindanao. She asked me about some historical site here in Thailand which is not yet too popular so that she could report about it as part of their project in History and Literature. After suggesting some historical sites I found here in Songkhla, I informed her about the new online magazine I discovered which is very indispensable for her- the Scrubs Magazine (Nurse's Guide to Good Living). Unlike other clinical sites where ordinary people felt rather out-of-place because of confusing medical terminology when visiting these sites,Scrubs' site is quite the opposite. It's reader-friendly (caters both nurses and ordinary people), inspiring, uplifting, and timely yet original . You'll find topics or tips about de-stressing mind, health tips, fashion tips, beauty tips and secrets, work behavior, money matters, news and entertainment and even tackles about love issues! She visited and explored the sites and thank me for showing her one of the coolest nurse's sites she ever found!
I can't help telling my friends about this site because I learned a lot from it. One of the things that I become versed and had adapted in my lifestyle is about the Gratitude Walk. The author claimed that rest and regrouping is essential to balance our life and to take charge of our unique stress as a health professional. Part of her own regimen is the gratitude walk- walking while expressing gratitudes in life. I started doing it last week. After coming back at home after class at 4:00 pm, I took a walk with my baby around our neighborhood. Same with the author,I started with the basics like gratitude for being able to walk, talk, use my hands, and being with my family. I acknowledge my fortune that God has allowed me to wake up that morning, the gift of another day, the air I breathe. My thoughts turn to the people in my life and opportunities to learn and grow. I feel tremendous gratitude to have a job in a profession I love.I am amazed every day how much lighter and more empowered I feel by this simple, quick regimen.

I'm "Scrub-ing" today!
As I've mentioned before, I spend part of my leisure time reading health-related articles online. One of the online magazines that perks my interest is the Scrubs magazine. It's actually a Nurse's guide to good living but what I like about is the fact that it's not purely a clinical site. Though I'm not a nurse, I could relate with the career advice it offers and apply in my own situation as a teacher the beauty and fashion tips as well as lots of ideas on making my downtime as relaxing as my work life is demanding.
I remembered my classmate in high school before who ended up being a nurse instead of becoming a teacher (she finished Associate in Secondary Education before deciding to finish her current course) commented that teachers could be great nurses as well as nurses could be great teachers. Her reason for this is that these two careers shared the commitment to work, the courage and compassion they show (the teacher to their students and nurses to their patients) , often against all odds as well as against comfort and convenient hours! Would you agree with her? Nowadays, she enjoys the challenges she faces of this noble career that she chose and I think she deserves a Scrubby Award!
Furthermore, this site features great tips that seasoned nurses give to the new ones on the floor. I also benefited from it as it answers my burning question regarding How to Deal with Bickering and Backstabbing in the Workplace? The best thing to do is to stay busy and try to avoid controversy. I've been doing this for almost eight years and it's very effective! So far, I'm in peace with my co-workers and they trusted me because they know I really stay away from the "gossip machine". They observed that if the gossip starts to fly and I'm in the middle, I don’t engage. I would either excuse myself or change the subject.
This is what I've been doing today, "Scrub-ing". I enjoy it. New knowledge, New Power!
