Meet Ellen Hingst, RN, BSN

Bachelor of Science Nursing
Certified Advanced BodyTalk Practitioner
PaRama Practitioner
Animal Talk Practitioner
Ellen Hingst brings her lifelong pursuit of helping others into every aspect of her work. Her journey into holistic healing began in her early years, where a passion for biology and helping others led her through many life challenges.
Ellen's Story:
"My first job as a veterinary technician found me fainting in my first surgery, thinking I couldn’t do the clinical world (I was pregnant with my oldest). A biologist passionate about ranching life and genetics, I started studying genetics, biology, and veterinary/nursing science before my oldest son was born. I finished college, being a mother of six, and became a nurse after a dramatic car crash where I was a quadriplegic for four hours. That moment changed my life. Yes, I went back to college with my three oldest children. In that time, I also immersed myself in studying integrative healthcare strategies, supplements, nutrition, and raising my own food."

BodyTalk for Nurses
Ellen understands the immense pressures healthcare professionals face. From burnout to emotional exhaustion, the challenges of working in healthcare can take a significant toll on a nurse's well-being. That’s why BodyTalk for Nurses was developed: to offer a holistic approach that supports nurses' personal health while also enhancing their ability to provide compassionate, effective care for their patients.
By integrating BodyTalk into their daily practice, nurses can foster a healing environment that benefits both themselves and their patients, supporting physical health, while also addressing the emotional and energetic needs of those in their care.
BodyTalk for Nurses is a separate yet connected initiative designed to support healthcare professionals in their pursuit of whole-istic healthcare, combining personal well-being with better patient outcomes.
