- Healing Pain Through Movement with David Jeters
In this transformative episode of Mind Over Matter, we welcome David Jeters, a seasoned physical therapist from Acceleration Physical Therapy in Spokane. With a deep focus on manual therapy and functional exercise, David redefines how we view chronic pain. Rather than turning to medications or surgery first, he urges us to look inward—toward alignment, movement, and mindful care. From the misunderstood causes of joint pain to the psychology behind chronic discomfort, this conversation explores the real root of healing. David also shares actionable steps to reconnect with your body and shift your mindset from managing symptoms to creating lasting change.
About the Guest:David Jeters is a licensed physical therapist specializing in manual therapy and functional movement. At Acceleration Physical Therapy in Spokane, he works with a range of patients—from elite athletes to older adults—empowering them to heal through mobility, strength, and nervous system regulation. His mission is to change the narrative around pain and to prove that healing begins not with surgery, but with mindful, intentional movement.
Key Takeaways:
Pain is often the result—not the cause—of dysfunction; movement is the key to healing.
Delaying therapy can lead to worsening conditions; early intervention often means quicker recovery.
Chronic pain isn’t just physical—it’s deeply psychological, driven by fear and avoidance of movement.
Manual therapy restores motion, while functional exercise retrains the brain and body for safe, strong movement.
One mindset shift? Degeneration on X-rays doesn’t always equal pain.
Healing starts with understanding that your body isn't broken—it’s communicating.

★ Support this podcast ★24 min - From Burnout to Balance: Yvonne Lee-Hawkins on Healing, Energy & Leadership
In this powerful episode of Mind Over Matter, we sit down with Yvonne Lee-Hawkins — corporate leader turned holistic coach — to unpack the emotional, physical, and energetic toll of burnout. Yvonne shares her personal wake-up calls, from decision fatigue to dangerously high blood pressure, and how she redefined success without sacrificing well-being. She reveals how grounding, energy healing, and setting sacred boundaries became her path to true balance. Whether you're teetering on the edge or deep in the trenches of burnout, this conversation is a compassionate call to pause, reflect, and reclaim your vitality.
About the Guest:
Yvonne Lee-Hawkins is a leadership strategist and certified advanced pranic healer who empowers high-achievers to recover from burnout and realign with their purpose. After two major episodes of burnout during a thriving career, Yvonne now blends holistic practices with practical leadership tools to guide others toward sustainable success.Key Takeaways:
Yvonne experienced burnout twice in her career — first mentally, then physically — realizing that high performance without self-care is unsustainable. She outlines the four burnout triggers: physical, mental, emotional, and energetic. A pivotal moment came when she couldn’t even choose a pair of socks — a metaphor for total overwhelm. Yvonne’s healing included grounding rituals, daily meditation, and the discovery of pranic energy healing, which reshaped how she manages stress and relationships. She also teaches clients how to set healthy boundaries at work without guilt — reframing self-care as strategic leadership. Her biggest non-negotiables? Quality sleep and honoring her energy. Burnout, Yvonne says, doesn’t have to mean failure; it can be the start of a more conscious, joy-filled chapter.Connect with Yvonne Lee-Hawkins:
