Author: Bone Health & Osteoporosis Foundation September 30, 2022 Duration: 0:00
On this episode of Bone Talk, BHOF CEO Claire Gill is joined by Colleen Avis to discuss the value of a mindfulness practice to help manage stress and promote healing. Colleen is not only an integrative life coach who helps people find clarity and focus, she’s also a certified Chopra Life Coach, yoga teacher, and practitioner of Ayurveda and NLP. Her book, Sacred Spaces: Subtle Shifts for Mind, Body, and Home Transformation, opens you to what’s possible and teaches you how to develop strategies for living a full and satisfying life. Her approach to mindfulness embraces the whole person. She believes the mind, body, and soul are beautifully intertwined.

Tuning into Bone Talk feels like pulling up a chair to a thoughtful, necessary conversation that often goes unheard. Produced by the Bone Health & Osteoporosis Foundation, this podcast moves beyond simple medical advice, weaving together the real human stories and expert insights that define the landscape of bone health. Each episode brings a different voice to the forefront-you might hear a researcher explaining a breakthrough in treatment, a caregiver sharing their daily challenges, or a policy advocate discussing systemic change. It’s this mosaic of perspectives from patients, doctors, innovators, and advocates that gives the discussion its depth and urgency. While osteoporosis is a central focus, the dialogue naturally expands to encompass holistic well-being, nutrition, fitness, and the science of healthy aging. The goal isn’t just to inform but to equip you with practical strategies and a sense of community, emphasizing how protecting bone strength is fundamentally about preserving your independence and capacity for an active life. This isn't a clinical lecture; it's a resource built on genuine conversation, making complex topics accessible and relevant for anyone invested in their long-term health.
