Abstract
The aim of this article is to elaborate on consolation management aesthetics in terms of literature, art, and music. This article will be centered on holistic nurses who come in daily contact with vulnerable patients in need of both medical treatment and consolation, as they continue their journey toward one or another outcome. Consolation management aesthetics enables the patients to shift their attention from something that appears intractable to something that motivates, bolsters existential resilience, and offers hope and optimism for the future. Holistic nursing aesthetics, involving psychological healing through literature, art, and music, can help anxious, troubled patients to once again find beauty and balance in their lives.
