The increasing complexity of nursing duties and the drive to control costs are producing considerable pressure in nursing work environments. This often leads to increased levels of anxiety in nursing environments, which can be a challenge for nurses. One calming technique is coloring pre-drawn geometric designs, such as mandalas.
The May/June 2020 issue of MEDSURG Nursing features the article entitled, “The Effect of Coloring Mandalas on the Anxiety of Medical-Surgical Nurses and Nursing Support Staff,” authored by Patricia Maguire, Ann Coughlan, Deborah Drayton, Hannah Lacko, Jessie Reich, and Linda Hatfield. In the article, Ms. Maguire and her coauthors discuss findings of their study, which suggest coloring pre-drawn mandalas is an effective, individualized way to lower anxiety in medical-surgical nurses and nursing staff.
In this episode, MEDSURG Nursing Editorial Board Member Dr. Kristi Campoe, talks with three authors of the article, Ms. Patricia Maguire, Ms. Ann Coughlan, and Dr. Linda Hatfield. They provide deeper insight into their study findings and how mandala coloring could be used in nursing practice as an evidence-based intervention to decrease anxiety for medical-surgical staff.
