  • 8 Minutes to Ageless - Episode 39 - Civility Workshop

    EPISODE SUMMARY:

    Dr. Pearson describes an amazing experience in her civility workshop, where two women who were on the opposite side of the table, told their stories of how their belief systems came to be. The kindness, respect, and compassion for each other at the end of the course was nothing more than magical. She will be telling you more about how to sign up for one of these great workshops in the future.

    ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS…

    • Dr. Pearson is doing the workshops in person for the time being but will be doing them on zoom in the near future.
    • If your heart and mindset aren’t in the right place it is harder to heal.
    • Learn how to fully authentically listen to people.
    • Learn how to let things go even if you don’t believe it or feel the same way.
    • Learn how to authentically interview someone with a different perspective.
    • Dr. Pearson talks about one of the one-on-one conversations in the workshop.
    • The experiences of COVID helped one lady see that some people might be influenced by dark or evil forces and turn back to God to seek understanding.
    • The other lady had the complete opposite view on the topic, but still listened and didn’t judge or interrupt.
    • Then she was able to tell her side without judgment or interruption.
    • By the end, both ladies had tears in their eyes and they hugged each other.
    • They didn’t agree with each other, but they respected each other which is the whole point of the workshop.
    • Dr. Pearson has decided to write a second book based on the stories from her workshop and she will still share some of the stories here on the podcast.
    • Seek to understand others, but be respectful of their thoughts and never try to change someone else.

        • 8 Minutes to Ageless - Episode 38 - Mindset vs Thinking

          EPISODE SUMMARY:

          Dr. Pearson discusses two case studies and illustrates how important our mindset is related to what we think our body can do, cannot do, what we think it needs or what we are unwilling to do!

          ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS…

          • Everyone has a back story.
          • A Younger gentleman in his late thirty’s is our first case study.
          • He was raised to believe that you just buck up and let the body do what it can or wants to do and you just move on.
          • He didn’t believe in stretches.
          • Dr. Pearson got him to do 10 hinges twice a day for two weeks.
          • If you feel like something is a waste of time, maybe try asking how long it would take before you start noticing a difference and you might not find it a waste of time anymore.
          • The second case study is a retired gentleman who is always on the go.
          • He suffered from back pains and learned how to live with them.
          • After being told by many massage therapists that he was so stiff he started to believe that was just how he was.
          • He would do every stretch that was suggested to him.
          • He had a great range of motion.
          • Dr. Pearson had him do a sit and decompress device (that you can look up online)
          • They weren’t making a lot of progress and it was causing a lot of frustration.
          • They switched to a rotational stretch and it seemed to help.
          • Sometimes slowing down stretches is what is really needed.

                                  EPISODE SUMMARY:

                                  When Dr. Kelli hears “aging is horrible”, she wants to correct the false assumption.  Getting hurt as ignoring the pain is what leads to crummy aging. She describes a situation where a big toe injury led to back pain and gives you some simple suggestions for how to do a better job of managing your injuries.

                                  ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS…

                                  • He did not seek medical care to get this injury taken care of.
                                  • However, his injury created a bigger problem than he had thought it would.
                                  • Improper movement in a joint can cause problems in other parts of your body.
                                  • Dr. Pearson explains how that works.
                                  • With work, he was able to start moving his big toe again and the back pain began to fade away.
                                  • Early treatment makes all the difference.
                                  • If you get treatment early you don’t have to age poorly you could age extremely well.
                                  • Do not ignore your injuries!

                                                          • We have to stop being upset and mad about things and learn from them instead.
