614: Injuries Happen - Stay Positive with Dr. Ariele Foster

Injuries can derail your best healthy lifestyle plans, and if you’re not careful, they can lead to deconditioning and loss of function. But here’s what you need to understand and accept: everyone with an active life gets injured - everyone. So rather than feeling guilt or regret about your aches and pains, it’s a much smarter approach to swiftly move into healing mode and take full ownership of the process. On this week’s podcast, you’ll meet a career yoga teacher and physical therapist whose work focuses on overcoming injuries.

Listen and learn:

• Why many injuries simply require time to heal
• The importance of things like shoes, sleep position, and lifestyle choices
• The power of walking and how to titrate movement vs. pain
• How to potentially get help from a physical therapist or qualified professional
