2015 AJN Award Recipient

B is for Balance 2nd Ed. is about the individual nurse, the professional, the multi-tasker, the be all things to all people leader. While the first edition of B is for Balance was well-received and has been a great resource to nurses and other professionals, the second edition has been updated to focus on 12 steps to balance, including engagement, focus, sleep deficits, fatigue, diet, re-inventing one's career, and the need for each of us to live longer and to live well. The book attracts those who are juggling multiple responsibilities at home, at work, and within the community. Much of the information in this book mirrors one's own life and establishes an impetus for change.
