Dr. Pearson talks about the art of listening and gives a couple of examples.

Once in the door all focus was on the client.

The only question that was asked was what would you like me to know about you?

He focused on what he called the movie of the client's life that was before him.

After an extremely long pause, he would confirm that the person was finished then follow up with questions.

Gaining the trust of the client creates a safe feeling that allows the client to tell you things that they might not have.

Truly listening to someone can open your realm of possibilities and opportunities.

Never underestimate the power of listening.

Think about listening to learn, listen to understand; allow people to fully talk and let them finish.

A lot of things have been happening and going on around the office that has made Dr. Pearson realise she would like to talk about other people.

Everywhere you are you may run into someone who seems a lot more angrier than what the situation might call for.

We are living in stressful times, but finding out the back story might help us to respond better.

Sometimes you do need to give people a little bit of time to calm down.

Dr. Pearson tells us some stories to give examples of how knowing the why or background stories help us to understand why the person may be acting out of character.

Get creative with what someone’s back story might be so that you can handle the situation with more grace.

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.

Steroids do help relieve pain, but it does cause problems in the long run, so you do not want to be on them for too long.

You are the master of your inflammation.

Dr. Pearson explains what inflammation is.

What causes inflammation?

No movement

Poor hydration

Poor diet

One thing you can do to help inflammation is stop eating sugar.

Another thing to do is cold water therapy.

Always check with your doctor first before trying new things as extreme as these suggestions.

Lazor therapy can also help.

Two out of the three options Dr. Pearson gave are free!

Joint mobility helps with nerve function.

Problems in your neck or shoulder area can cause a lot of time pain in your hands.

Any disease begins at a cellular level. 

You are only as healthy as your cells are healthy.

Dr. Pearson talks about lasers and why it can actually help and be good for you.

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?

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.

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.

Dr. Pearson talks about the importance of giving yourself grace, trusting yourself, loving yourself, liking yourself and knowing you are not perfect.

You need to have your heart in the right place to have an open heart.

Listen to yourself, self-love and respect is the theme for today.

Dr. Pearson shares a letter that was written to her husband.

It is easy to forget to love yourself.

It’s easy to live in fear and fall back on old bad habits.

Sometimes it’s essential to not think about others, but about yourself and allow others to care for you.

Love your body, love your life and live every day to the fullest.

Healing yourself is possible, you just need to try. 

You just need to know that you can and understanding others that have done it can help you have the courage you need for yourself to do it.

Listen to your body and do what makes you comfortable as long as it’s taking a step in the right direction for healing.

You have to make the choice to heal in order to fully recover.

Dr. Pearson references a book called Radical Remission by Kelly A. Turner.

Make sure you and your heart are fully engaged in what you are doing.
