Dr. Mommy Health Tips Episode 11: Grieving

Welcome to Episode 11 of Dr Mommy Health Tips Podcast. This weekly podcast will provide you with quick on the go information for better health and living. I am very excited to bring this podcast to you and I promise the episodes will not be long at all but you will learn a great deal about taking care of yourself and your family.

I am looking forward to bringing more tips every Wednesday that you can download and listen to 24 hours a day 7 days a week from the comfort of your computer or MP3 player. If you feel the need to just listen from the site, you can do that too. Just know that if you do you can’t divert from the page or else you will lose the audio and will have to start all over again.

This week I have a very special guest to share with you.  We tackled the subject of grieving and how it can affect your health.  Please listen to Mr. Mark Hundley and be sure to share this one with your loved ones and friends.

Mark Hundley has worked with children, youth and families since 1971 – devoting 13 years to youth and family ministry; another 10 years to service in public education as a teacher and high school counselor; and the remaining time as a therapist, consultant and writer.
He earned his B.A. in Sociology from Hardin-Simmons University; his Master’s in Counseling from the University of North Texas; and has pursued doctoral studies in Educational Administration.
Mark’s interest in and understanding of grief springs from his experience of the death of his first wife, Christy in 1989 – an event that left him the single father of a seven year-old daughter.  His walk through that process with his daughter provided opportunities to explore and develop his expertise in the field of grief reconciliation.
Awaken to Good Mourning – a personal guide through the journey of grief – is available in both print and audio versions.  He is a co-founder of the Journey of Hope Grief Support Center in Plano, TX, a non-profit agency that provides free group grief support to children, adolescents and their parents or adult caregivers as they learn to mourn the death or impending death of a loved one.
He is a Licensed Professional Counselor and conducts a private counseling practice in McKinney, TX, where he lives with his wife Vanessa.  They have three grown children together and enjoy the company of three grandsons.
