EPISODE SUMMARY: In this wild and wacky PodCast, Dr. Pearson tells you how to mitigate your own body discomfort by mobilizing various fluids in the body. Have no idea what she is talking about? Take a listen.  ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS… Dr. Pearson is going to talk to us about mitigating discomfort by mobilizing various fluids in our bodies. There will be three different kinds of discomfort that she will get into. We all know sweating is good for you and there are many different ways to sweat. Sweat helps release toxins from our bodies, but it’s important that you replace it with healthy electrolytes.  Dr. Pearson recommends Lyte Balance. Now to really get into what Dr. Pearson wanted to talk about. Taking supplements on an empty stomach. Dr. Pearson stood at the top of her stairs and walked down the stairs on her hands, leaving her in an almost downward dog position and then did several deep heavy breaths. This is not recommended if you have weak arms or can get dizzy easily. This can also be done on your bed.  Have your knees on your bed and slowly reach down to your floor; you may need assistance. Another discomfort is minstrel cramps. You can try the same movements as Dr. Pearson previously mentioned or you can even do a handstand against a wall. Lastly, there is heartburn.  Chug a large glass of water (10 oz) then jump up and down about 20 times. If you have back problems and it hurts to jump you can just press up on your toes and come back down, just be careful to not come back down too hard on your heels.

EPISODE SUMMARY: Dr. Pearson talks about how to stand your ground physically in order to be present and to hear the truth. So much time is wasted in life not hearing the truth or telling the truth, so let your body be in good form to make this easier. Secondly, she talks about the maintenance of the most important joint in our body, the hips. ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS… Standing up for yourself or speaking up for yourself. Telling your truth. If you are not grounded it will be very hard to be present in knowing the truth. You will also not be willing to be open or move forward. Practice this week in being grounded in your body. Moving to your important hip joints. If you can not squat down then that is not good. Do what you can to pull your knee to your chest for a minute. Stand against a wall and pull your knee to your chest or lay on your back with a pillow if needed and try it that way if you must. Dr. Pearson gives several different ways you can do it if you have different difficulties.  A little resistance is good. Do not wait too long as it could turn into a bigger problem. The last thing to talk about is the importance of always learning. It would be great to try to learn something new every day.  Think about it…what is the one big thing that you want to learn about?

EPISODE SUMMARY: Dr. Pearson talks about how our culture of denial is so pervasive that it blinds us to knowing when to reach out for help. She shares a very interesting case study that typified how denial leads to disability.  ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS… Book reference: At Peace by Samuel Harrington MD. This podcast is not about death, but Dr. Pearson has always embraced the fact that she will die and believes all of us should do the same. Denial is a lie and the more you lie to yourself the more you will believe it. Marketing is a great tool of denial as it makes you believe something that might not be true. Remember it’s important to find out what the cause of the pain is so going back to the beginning is what is going to help you the most not what it is currently. What is it that you are denying?  What is it that you are pretending to not be a problem when it is? Do not be afraid to ask around if you don’t know what to do.

EPISODE SUMMARY: Dr. Pearson celebrates some learning she had from a recent flare of pain. She teaches how to stay aware, take action and don’t pretend there is nothing wrong. Putting the pieces together as to why something happened is easier than you think. ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS… Dr. Pearson talks about how grateful she is for her husband. Then she tells us how she hurt her ankle while walking her dogs. Doc should have seen someone for help, but she didn’t and later re-hurt herself. Dr. Pearson realized that she needed to get these injuries looked at and fixed before things ended up even worse. Once you identify where your limitation is it is easy to fix it. It’s important to stretch into the pain but to be aware if it’s extreme pain and why that might be. Is it possible your joint is not lined up correctly? Should you seek professional help to get realigned? It’s important to have a team of people that you can go to that can help you. The longer you wait the harder it will be to recover. Recognize that everything feeds into everything else so if you hurt yourself in one spot it can totally affect you in another area of your body. CALLS-TO-ACTION: Get a copy of the book on Amazon.
