Mind-body conditions are neglected and costly

Affecting one third of Americans, conditions like irritable bowel syndrome, smoking addiction, menopausal hot flashes, anxiety and depression, and chronic pain are difficult and expensive to manage because there’s a significant, unaddressed mental component to all such mind-body conditions.
Mind-body conditions present with both psychological and physical symptoms and have a combined cost of over $106b annually.1

After years, this is what I needed! For years I have know my IBS was brain-gut connection issues, but I didn’t know how to break the cycle. I was an athlete and my pre-race jitters would casue IBS-D. Now that I am an adult the jitters have somehow manifested into travel and feeling trapped without a bathroom in either a car or on an airplane, sometimes other situations too. It has been very troublesome and life-altering. This app is helping me so much. I can feel the brain-gut connection improving and my anxiety in my car is definitely improving! Thank you!
