  • 8 Minutes to Ageless - Episode 19 - Breathing

    EPISODE SUMMARY

    While it may seem ridiculous to learn how to breathe correctly, in truth we have forgotten how to do it properly. Without accurate breath managing chronic neck and lower back pain can almost be impossible. This episode Dr. Kelli will explain why and what you can do about it.

    ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS…

    • The power of Breath.
    • Dr. Kelli had the privilege of hearing from Pavel Kolar who is a physiotherapist.
    • When we are babies we learn to breathe properly, but as we grow we change and become shallow breathers that cause neck and back pains.
    • Dr. Kelli explains how breathing naturally through your diaphragm will help your muscles stretch, ligaments, and bones move to the positions they should be.
    • Being overweight can cause weakness in the abdomen and cause problems for your discs.
    • Chronic neck pain can be caused by not breathing properly because of the strain you are putting on  your muscles.
    • Dr. Kelli will walk you through stretches that will help retrain yourself on how to breathe properly.
    • This is just as easy as thinking about it. Intension is the trigger.
    • Do this for 10 mins a day for 2 weeks and you will reboot your computer.
    • Once this becomes more comfortable you may notice you are able to breathe this way doing normal day to day living.
    • There is no good reason to not learn how to breathe right. It can even help with menstruation.

        • 8 Minutes to Ageless - Episode 18 - Lumbar Roll

          Episode Summary

          Part of treating Lumbar pain is understanding how to support the natural curve of the lumbar spine. Dr. Kelli teaches us how to use the roller to support that curve that should be located in the lowest part of the lumbar spine.

          ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS…

          • Continued work on lengthening ligaments.
          • Remember there is always something you can do to deal with your pain.
          • We will be dealing with lower back pain this episode.
          • Back pain is associated with other stressors.
          • Back pain is often caused by the way we sit, walk, move & stretch.
          • Curves do create stability so we will help you create the proper curve.
          • If you have had any back surgery you should NOT do this stretch.
          • If you have been diagnosed with stenosis you can do well with this stretch, but sometimes it can be too much so you might want to skip this stretch.
          • The more you extend (or leaning back), your disc problems will get better, less swollen.
          • Placement of the roller and the stretch that will help the lower back.
          • These stretches will also help relieve your intestines and abdominal area; it could even help with bowel movements.
          • You can see a video of this stretch on Kelli’s book website.

              • 8 Minutes to Ageless - Episode 17

                There is nothing more glorious and happy-making than going for a walk with your heart leading, arms swinging, legs moving and feeling like your gluts are pushing you forward powerfully.  In order to walk well you have to have a pelvis that wiggles when it wiggles! This session talks about the need for creating space and motion in your sacroiliac joints by focusing on the ligaments that hold those joints together.

                ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS...

                • Anatomy of Ligaments of the pelvis
                • Walking and moving (wiggle)
                • Guitar Strings
                • GALS (Gravity Assisted Ligament Stretching)
                • The importance of having a little (not a lot) of movement in your sacroiliac joints
