Everyday Wellness with Dr. Tina H. Boogren (formerly Self-Care for Educators)
Everyday Wellness with Dr. Tina H. Boogren is for educators, caregivers, mid-life women, and anyone carrying a lot. Each episode explores true, sustainable wellness through one essential question: How do I want to feel? From there, we focus on designing a life that actually supports that feeling, right now. This podcast isn’t about perfection or big overhauls. It’s about micro-choices, small wins, community, and the quiet courage of choosing yourself again and again. Through honest reflection, humor, practical tools, and weekly invitations, Tina helps listeners reclaim energy, clarity, and joy in real life. Grounded in gratitude, connection, and finding delight in the everyday, this is wellness for today, not someday.

Episode 27: Borrowed Calm
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Sometimes calming yourself feels like too much work. In this episode, Tina introduces the idea of borrowed calm, which is the practice of letting your nervous system settle by connecting to something already steady. Whether it’s a person, a pet, music, or simply stepping outside, this invitation reminds us that we don’t have to create calm alone. For episode resources, see https://www.tinaboogren.com/.
