Mindfulness is the practice of grounding yourself in the present moment and there are many ways of practicing it. Meditation, yoga and mantras are just some examples of ways to be mindful. The practice, which has been around for centuries, is now being used by doctors and therapists to help people deal with stress, anxiety, depression, pain management, finding happiness and so much more. Find out how mindfulness works on your brain and learn ways to fit it into your life.

Our hormones make us who we are and are essential to good health. But when they’re out of balance, they can be extremely disruptive to our well-being. For women, there are many times throughout life that our hormones naturally change, starting with puberty, then around pregnancy, and again during perimenopause and menopause. In this episode, Dr. Laura Borgelt talks all about these changes and the other ways hormones can affect us over the course of our lives.

We all struggle with loving ourself, whether it’s our body, appearance, or what we can or can’t do as women. But we are stuck with ourself our whole life, so we have to find a way to come to terms with who we are or we risk always feeling bad. There are many ways to combat negative thoughts and to find self-acceptance and self-love. In this episode, we explore common negative self-talk and ways to change our negative habits so we can learn to love ourself.

We all have things we want to accomplish, big and small. The key to our success is knowing how to set realistic goals and overcome obstacles along the way. In this episode, we talk to the highly accomplished Dr. Kathleen Flarity, brigadier general, who discusses her experience with goal setting and shares some unexpected advice.

Practicing gratitude may seem cliché, but there is scientific evidence that remembering what we are grateful for can positively impact both our physical and mental health. This episode discusses the ways you can start a gratitude practice and how to overcome the times you feel you have nothing to be grateful for.

How can we get through challenging times and find ways of turning them into positive experiences? Dr. Margarita Sevilla discusses her amazing life and shares how she has grown from her own life’s challenges.

Knowing what information sources to trust can be tricky. As a result, health myths spread easily. However, when we know the facts, we can be proactive about our health and can make choices that are not just healthy but can be life-saving. In this episode, we explore where to find reliable information online and we debunk a bunch of health myths that affect women.

Resilience is the ability to get through tough times. While some people are taught resilience at a young age, others build it through challenging experiences. Either way, learning how to be resilient in the face of things we can’t control is relevant to everyone. Life is full of challenges, both big and small. This episode discusses the ways we can learn and grow from difficult experiences instead of letting them overwhelm us.

Some of us experience stress and anxiety more acutely than others, but they are both a normal part of life. In this episode, Host Gloria talks with Dr. Kristin Orlowski on the difference between stress and anxiety, how to deal with them productively and how to know when it’s time to get professional help.
