🌿 Just Breathe 🌿
Mindfulness — the practice of being present without judgment — can be a powerful tool for easing stress, anxiety, and even anger. Sometimes we feel those emotions building; other times, they strike out of nowhere. Either way, mindfulness helps us pause, notice, and return to calm.
Licensed Professional Counselor Jody Cecil supports clients both virtually and in person at The Flourish Center, helping them connect with that calm through experiential and trauma-informed care. Drawing from approaches like Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, EMDR, IFS, DBT, and TIST, she helps each person embrace healing wholistically — body, mind, and heart.
Take a moment today to slow down, notice your breath, and just breathe.

🦠 New Guidelines for H. pylori Testing
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a common bacterial infection—affecting nearly 40% of Americans—that can lead to long-term digestive issues and even increase the risk of stomach cancer if left untreated.
According to the latest American College of Gastroenterology guidelines, when one person in a household tests positive for H. pylori, all adult family members should also be tested. Early testing and treatment are key to preventing reinfection and protecting long-term gut health.
At The Flourish Center, Jen Owen, N.P. uses the GI-MAP stool test, which includes H. pylori screening along with a full analysis of gut bacteria, inflammation markers, and digestive function. This comprehensive approach helps uncover the root causes of chronic symptoms like bloating, reflux, and fatigue—so healing can be truly individualized.
If you’ve been diagnosed with H. pylori or have ongoing digestive symptoms, it may be time for a deeper look at your gut health.

🌿 What Is Integrative Medicine?
Integrative medicine is a term that’s showing up more and more in healthcare—and for good reason. It’s about unifying separate parts into a whole, combining conventional and complementary approaches to restore and maintain health across a person’s lifespan.
According to the World Health Organization, health is “a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being—not merely the absence of disease.” Integrative medicine aligns with that vision, addressing not just symptoms but the deeper emotional, mental, spiritual, and environmental factors that influence health.
At The Flourish Center, integrative care means bringing together the best of both science and soul. Services include:
🌸 Whole-person and functional medicine
🌿 Herbal medicine and nutrition guidance
💫 Holistic Pelvic Care™ and energy work
🧠 Mindset coaching and body movement
As Jen Owen, N.P. says, “Integrative Medicine is about finding the best solution for the patient who’s right in front of me.”

Hi. I’m Jen Owen. I’m an Integrative Medicine Nurse Practitioner, Primary Care Provider, Herbalist, Functional Medicine expert, and Pelvic Floor Specialist.
After almost 28 years of working with health and wellness, I have seen just about everything.
Here are the truths I know:
1. No one is broken.
2. No diagnosis is a sentence.
3. Hope and compassionate care make a difference.
4. Conventional (modern) medicine is not better or worse than natural medicine. There are benefits to both. Why not utilize all both have to offer to find the perfect balance for you?
5. There are no cookie-cutter solutions for any problem. It’s best to find the right path/program for each person individually.
6. Nurse Practitioners are a great choice for care. We are nurses first, so we understand how health can affect life. We are medically trained and licensed to diagnose conditions, order testing such as radiology and labs, prescribe treatments, including prescription medications, and serve as your primary care provider. We are bred from a holistic approach of looking at the whole person and how each aspect of life affects wellness.
7. I am here on this earth to help people. I do this with smart, comprehensive care based on love. I treat my patients as I would my own family--every time.
Whatever you’re working with, I promise to listen fully to your whole story, honor your own intuition and judgment about what is happening, and work with you to design a plan that won’t add even more stress to our already stressful world. I believe in a practical, least-invasive, and doable approach to serving my patients.
I’m here to help you with a specific issue or take care of all of your basic medical needs using my integrative approach. I’m currently building my FLOURISH Family of patients who I’ll work with for the duration of my career. I’d be honored to welcome you to my family.
