Dr. Pearson talks about the marvel of walking, mainly walking without pain. Nothing makes the heart sing more than a movement that does not hurt.

19 min - 8 Minutes to Ageless - Episode 46 - Elbow and Wrist Pain
EPISODE SUMMARY:
Dr. Pearson talks about how the lack of proper grounding can result in body pain. She refers to her personal history of having a wrist fracture while a co-ed at UCLA, and relates the upstream challenges she had later in life. More importantly, she will discuss how self-mobilization and self-treatment can work to unwind those faulty patterns, and allow you to have a better relationship with gravity, leading to better grounding and less pain.

- Do you plant your foot properly?
- How do your hands relate to what you are touching daily?
- Dr. Pearson gives an example from personal experience.

- Luckily she never really had any problems until about 5 years ago when she slipped on the ice and re-injured it.
- Dr. Pearson teaches us how to get down on the floor and see if our hands can be properly grounded.
- She then teaches us ways we can help get our alignment back to where it needs to be.
- If you would like extra help there will be a video available. Just email Kelli at [email protected]
- Next week we will be talking about grounding through the feet, but in the meantime feel and study how you do in that area.

ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS…
- The Civility Workshop has been going great.
- The goal of this workshop is not to change people’s minds, even though that sometimes happens, but rather to understand mindsets.

- In that, you begin to change, but the changes are little by little
- Dr. Pearson tells us about a gentleman that really struggled with listening to someone else tell their different thoughts
- He really had to tell himself to stop and actually listen, be curious and listen to the story
- Towards the end, it did get a lot easier
- Dr. Pearson is reading a great book right now called “The Way Out How to overcome Toxic Polarization” by Peter T. Coleman

- While the two women felt differently about the subject they both realized there were things they never thought about before

About 8 Minutes to Ageless
From the publisher's feed
This podcast is terrific for anyone over 40 and under 100! It’s an excellent listen for those who want to live well up to the day they die. While that sounds morbid, it is better than dying a slow…
death unable to move during the ten years before that final day.
