“Nurses are experts in 1001 areas.” – Annette Tersigni, the Yoga Nurse

Annette Tersigni RN, #1 Amazon Best Selling Author of ‘THE RICHEST WOMAN IN BABYLON AND MANHATTAN’, is a speaker, teacher, medical activist, and an expert in physical, financial & spiritual stress relief. Known as the YogaNurse, Annette is the founder of Yoga Nursing® - a new trend combining the power of Nursing & Yoga. Her mission is to “Expand Consciousness in Health Care”, giving sacred service, enlightening, transforming & saving lives.

Annette Tersigni is a bit of a rebel. A rebel who’s also a very successful seminar leader, speaker, mentor, writer, Yogini, and a proud health care revolutionary. Annette is all of 60 years young, and her brand of Yoga Nursing® is just getting majorly revved up!

Annette’s mission began several years ago when, as she worked with nurses at multiple facilities, she heard an united plea for help. Hearing countless sister nurses complain, “this job is killing me,” inspired her to find a remedy for an obvious self-care deficit. Her remedy; a yoga-based stress management program. As an applied mystic, nurse entrepreneur, and yoga-preneur, she has founded a revolutionary movement in healthcare referred to as Yoga Nursing®. Through Yoga Nursing®, Annette has helped thousands of healthcare providers use her certified CEU programs to relieve chronic stress, pain, suffering and anxiety, and teach their patients to do the same.

ANNETTE’S INSPIRATION

Annette’s main inspiration comes from her own experience of stress, anxiety, pain and suffering. Annette explained to me that she encountered and learned from teachers, saints, and many others who saved her from her own “egotistical self “and from the disappointment in herself which she had felt for a long time. Annette’s efforts have borne fruit, and she has been featured or covered extensively through leading media outlets including CBS, affiliates of Fox news and a recent interview on national television by Arielle Ford. Annette is also very proud to have been chosen as the first nurse hero by Modern Nightingale magazine.

Yoga Nursing® is also called ‘The Sacred Remedy,’ which she prescribes to treat stress, pain, anxiety, and suffering. According to Annette, the remedy consists of four parts; Sacred Movement, Sacred Breath, Sacred Nourishment and Sacred Rest. “I want to help fellow nurses who heal, to heal themselves,” shares Annette. She holds seminars to educate nurses and patients about ‘the sacred remedy’ where she teaches individuals from all walks of life the steps that one can use to achieve and experience what she refers as mystical results.

Already a successfully published author, the ever-prolific, Annette, is in the process of completing a second book called, “Health Care Rebel with a Cause.” Her upcoming book is about the Sacred Remedy and will be available for purchase in the Fall of 2012.
