Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This 5 page paper begins with Barrett's definition of mutual patterning and then discusses the theory on which this intervention is based (Roger's Science of Unitary Human Beings). The essay defines the key principles, reports Barrett's definition of power and explains how mutual patterning is practiced. Benefits to both patient and practitioner are discussed. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

of Unitary Human Beings (SUHB) (Barrett, 2000). In his science, Rogers offered four postulates: energy fields, openness, pattern, and pandimensionality (Barrett, 2000). Energy fields, the basic unit of living, are
human or environmental, openness refers to energy fields that are ever-changing, pattern distinguishes a specific energy field and pandimensionality is a way of viewing reality where time and space are
not linear (Barrett, 2000). Based on this, Barrett devised her own theory of power, which is "the capacity to participate knowingly in the nature of change characterizing the continuous patterning
of the human and environmental field" (Barrett, 2000, p. 6). Barrett (2000) noted that "the principles of homeodynamics describe change within Rogers science" (p. 6). Those principles are helicacy, which
is the nature of change; integrality, which is the process of change; and resonancy, which is the way in which change takes place (Barrett, 2000, p. 6). Thus, Rogers system
and Barretts system are about change (Barrett, 2000). Further, power is about knowing one is participating and being aware of making choices (Barrett, 2000). It is about having the freedom
to make choices regarding ones involvement in life situations (Barrett, 2000). Barretts theory then is about people creating their own reality by choosing to act on certain things (Barrett, 2000).
Health patterning is a Rogerian nursing practice (Barrett, 2000). Barrett (2000) devised "the term Health Patterning to describe a process of facilitating unitary well-being by assisting clients with their knowing
participation in change" (p. 6). Health patterning helps patients with changes in their lifestyle, illness, and difficulties in both living and dying (Barrett, 2000). The patient makes changes through
a mutual process with the nurse (Barrett, 2000). The patient recognizes their power and uses it (Barrett, 2000). Heath patterning, which involves pattern manifestation knowledge and mutual patterning shows the
