calming practices, comfort, and company during cancer treatment
The Audio Companion by Bolster & Bridge, an audio collection of mind/body practices specifically for cancer patients is now available for implementation by hospitals, cancer treatment centers, and cancer support groups.
With the challenge of the COVID-19 pandemic, Alison Crowley, a Certified Yoga Therapist and owner of Bolster & Bridge, saw the need for a safe, mindful way for cancer patients to address stress and receive emotional support through their diagnosis and treatment.
The Audio Companion, a 3.5-hour audio collection of meditations, visualizations, breath work, and stress relief tools, was created to assist cancer patients through each specific phase of treatment:
- post-surgery
- chemo and/or radiation
- waiting for test results
- post-treatment
Through an affordable monthly subscription to your hospital/organization with customized program links, The Audio Companion can be utilized by your patients in the comfort of their home, hospital room, treatment center, or cancer support group, providing emotional support during a challenging time.

“As a pain psychologist and cancer researcher, I often struggle to find existing tools that are easily accessible and are tailored to patients real life worries about their cancer, anxiety waiting for test results, and discomfort with cancer symptoms and treatment. Bolster & Bridge has developed audio recordings that patients can access wherever and whenever they need it most, and best of all they integrate evidence-based techniques that have been shown to improve patients’ symptoms with cancer including pain, anxiety, depression, sleep issues, relationships, and overall coping. A true asset to patient care.”

Each day I am infinitely grateful for all that she does for Tower and for those impacted by cancer.”

“The Bolster and Bridge Audio Companion is an amazing resource and has literally been my companion on many occasions, mostly during sleepless nights when I awaken with anxiety. Simply hearing Alison’s calm and reassuring voice is as though she is right beside me, holding space with me, providing the tools so I can calm myself down. The series is in well-organized modules which allow which topic best fits specific needs. This is much more than a valuable resource, this is the crowned treasure of my self-help toolbox. Thank you Alison for putting this wonderful program together!”

“I did not want to stop the recording. I feel blessed that not only I, but many other
people are now able to take advantage of Alison’s wonderful teachings. Her
calming voice, the great meditation techniques, relaxations, and beautiful
inspiring quotes have all helped me, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Your
teachings have been my savior through treatment and the after effects. You have
helped me to heal and strengthen. Beyond cancer and life stressors, I have
learned to live in the PRESENT.”

“I am in love with the Bolster and Bridge Audio Companion. I feel like it was tailor made for me. At first, getting through my cancer treatment I found Alison’s soothing voice, recording content, and resounding compassion to have great healing power as a bridge to recovery. I had no idea how Mind and Body practices could be so beneficial. Later, I was afraid to face post treatment alone, but thanks to the Bolster and Bridge Audio program as a true Companion, I didn’t have to. I use these recordings or their content at least every other day to bolster my resilience. I especially enjoy listening when I am filled with worry, anxiety, insomnia or even pain. Thank you, Alison and Bolster and Bridge, for being a Companion by my side at all times.”
