Abstract
Material gathered in a qualitative study of seven holistic nurses' perceptions of holistic nursing suggests that nonrational, intuitive knowing is a dimension of the state of the art in nursing. This dimension resonates with emerging theory in nursing and other sciences. Intuitive knowing is an aspect of the pattern of personal knowledge and as such may be found credible through reflection and actualization by individual nurses.
