Anger is a normal part of life. We all feel it at one time or another.

In this episode of Mind, Body, Bowen, therapist Tonya Eider talks about taking control of your anger.

Every day, dozens of small things go right for you. After a rainy week, the sun finally pops out. Traffic is light on the way to work. A co-worker brings in cupcakes. Little things. Nice things. Add them all up and they make up a pretty good day. Moments like these are easy to overlook. That’s where an exercise known at gratitude practice helps, giving you the chance to look back and acknowledge all the good things that happened to you in the last 24 hours.  In this episode of the Mind Body Bowen podcast, Esther Wilcox, Bowen Health’s Director of Clinical Program Management, talks about the art of embracing gratitude.  

In a world where information is constantly being aimed at you, life can, at moments, feel a bit overwhelming.  In this week’s Mind Body Bowen podcast, Bowen Health Clinical Educator Holly Hirschy-Hurd talks about mindfulness, a practice that allows you to be present in the moment, and can help slow that onslaught of info for a few minutes while at the same time help to lower your stress, improve your focus and support your overall health.

Many serious health conditions develop silently. Timely health screenings give patients and medical professionals a chance to discover those problems early when they are often more treatable and stop them before they become life threatening.

Quirks. We all have them. There are things like chewing our fingernails, or loudly tapping our feet, even cracking our knuckles. They’re mostly small things, simple things, things we often do without even thinking, things others might consider annoying. And sometimes, we even annoy ourselves. The question is, why … why do we do the things that we do? Bowen health therapist Holly Hirschy Hurd explains that there’s more to a quirk than just habit.
