Hello CTNIG team,

Our executive is planning exciting events and learning opportunities for the year, and we want your guidance on what will benefit our membership (you) most.
Please join our executive meeting on Monday, Nov. 20 at 7:30 p.m. ET to say hello, meet the team (perhaps even lend your talents to our executive - we still have a couple of positions open, and no CT experience is necessary to be on the executive) and let us meet you and get to know you.

We are opening up our executive team meeting this coming Tuesday, Oct. 24 at 7:30 p.m. ET on Zoom.
Please pop in and join us to meet your executive team, let us get to know you, and provide input on CTNIG initiatives.
You will then enter a waiting room space and be invited into our meeting shortly after that.
Zoom info will be sent to you once you register.
Hello to all Complementary Therapies Nurses' Interest Group (CTNIG) members...RNs and nursing students.
We have a wonderful summer/fall newsletter for you to peruse at your leisure.
Hopefully there is something of interest for everyone from an article on feng shui, colour and use of essential oils, to one nurse's perspective on self care, to current research on complementary therapies (CT).
We haven't forgotten about our student nurse members – we have some study tips for the upcoming school year as well as self-care ideas.
Do you enjoy speaking out for nurses, health and health care? Would you like to assist us in our mission to recognize that nursing involves a holistic approach whereby all persons are an integrated mind-body-spirit entity, the Complementary Therapies Nurses' Interest Group (CTNIG) promotes the practice of CT as part of nursing practice.
We welcome members to join us.
The CTNIG is seeking nominees for the following positions:

In 2012, Kim M Watson, the President of the CTNIG at that time, established the CTNIG Award just as we were to celebrate our 10th year Anniversary. The award was created to recognize the work nurses do to embrace, introduce and integrate complementary therapies into healthcare within Ontario.
The Hospice Palliative Care Conference is looking for volunteers to offer complementary therapy "taster" sessions!
The sessions will be a special feature of the Hospice Palliative Care Conference, which runs from April 24 to April 26, 2022 and will be held in person. A variety of complementary therapy practitioners offer 15 minute samplers of their modality in a shared, quiet ambient space. They are looking for volunteers to offer six 20-minute sessions over a two-hour period, followed by a one or two hour break where you can participate in the conference.
