    This is evidently the case with inanimate matter, but the living organism with active consciousness, which has reached a higher level and is normally rather overcharged with power, seldom retains its energy latent or unused for long. It continually gives out and as continually absorbs energy ; and it is this more dynamic flux and flow, like a lake that is constantly being filled and as often emptied, that constitute life and consciousness as we know it.

    Actually, she is not so much concerned with duty toward her baby; she is desperately straining to appease her conscience. The whole structure of her motives and behavior rests upon intricate personal issues that would come to light with difficulty. It is doubtful if the nurse or anyone else in her immediate surroundings can help her effectively. Her problem may be difficult enough even for the psychiatrist. The nurse can, however, be on the alert to appreciate her emotional stress and do all in her power to secure valid advice about it. In addition, she may be able to steer the mother somewhat in her conduct toward the baby, partly by specific suggestions on habit training and partly through the encouragement, as in other cases, of interests that will divert some of her overcharged energy.
