1/21/26Episode SummaryThe host, Scott Austin, talks with Jordan Brannon from Coalition about ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliance for online stores and why it has become a major concern for Shopify merchants. They discuss how ADA compliance is currently not clearly defined in law, leading to a surge in lawsuits from attorneys targeting e-commerce sites.Key points covered include:What ADA compliance means for online stores and why it matters domestically in the U.S. context.How stores built with Shopify themes may be partially compliant out-of-the-box but often require additional work, especially after customizations or apps are added.Tools and practices that help evaluate and improve accessibility, such as contrast checks and alt text for images.Limitations of low-cost ADA apps and the need for deeper adjustments like CSS changes and structured content.Discussion on when to bring in an agency for compliance support and what to look for in a partner.Overall, the episode emphasizes that ADA compliance is important for accessibility and legal risk reduction, but achieving it requires more than just add-on tools — it involves careful evaluation and ongoing effort.Show LinksCoalition - https://coalitiontechnologies.com/Wave Evaluation Tool for Chrome - https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/wave-evaluation-tool/jbbplnpkjmmeebjpijfedlgcdilocofhaxe DevTools Web Accessibility Testing for Chrome - https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/axe-devtools-web-accessib/lhdoppojpmngadmnindnejefpokejbddAccessibly Shopify app - https://apps.shopify.com/accessibly-app?ref=835204AccessPro Accessibility Widget - https://apps.shopify.com/access-pro?ref=835204Badgezilla - https://apps.shopify.com/badgezillaVideo & Transcript https://jadepuma.com/blogs/the-shopify-solutions-podcast/episode-177-ada-compliance-with-jordan-brannon
Playing #poker well can be viewed as making the highest-EV decision at every opportunity. In some situations, such as facing an all-in, calculating EV is relatively trivial. But what about more complex situations, particularly on early streets, where the EV formula is hard to apply? Enter EV modeling; an approach that estimates the EV of different actions by modeling multiple branches of the game tree. In this episode of the Red Chip Poker podcast, coach w34z3l presents several practical EV modeling methods so you can optimize your poker decisions.

What if the failure rate in clinical trials isn't about picking the wrong drug candidates—but about testing them in the wrong models?When you move cells from a 2D culture plate into a bioreactor, you're not simply scaling volume. You're fundamentally changing the biological context. Cell density shifts. Mass transfer dynamics evolve. Mechanical cues emerge. The cells sense these changes and respond—often in ways that derail strategies built on oversimplified assumptions.Most preclinical research still relies on flat plastic surfaces and animal models that miss critical aspects of human biology. The result? Therapeutics fail late in development because the models couldn't predict how human tissues would actually respond.In this episode, David Brühlmann speaks with Catarina Brito, Principal Investigator at ITQB NOVA and Head of the Advanced Cell Models Laboratory at iBET and ITQB NOVA in Portugal. Catarina's career-defining insight came early: studying glycan-protein interactions in murine versus human cells revealed that species differences weren't just nuances—they were fundamental gaps that could mislead entire research programs.Catarina and her team have developed neural, liver, and tumor models that capture the multicellular complexity and microenvironmental cues that 2D cultures cannot replicate. Her work creates preclinical models sophisticated enough to predict human responses while remaining scalable for drug development workflows.Highlights of the episode:Limitations of traditional 2D cell cultures and animal models in capturing realistic tissue behavior and therapeutic responses (06:27)Catarina Brito's personal scientific journey: from discovering model limitations to pioneering 3D culture systems in neural and liver tissues (04:19)How advanced 3D models recreate cell-to-cell interactions, tissue-specific microenvironments, diffusion gradients, and multicellular complexity (10:35)Regulatory movements toward reducing animal models, and the challenge of validating advanced alternatives for systemic biology studies (09:10)Key differences in designing bioreactors for various cell types, with practical examples from liver and neural models (15:16)The impact of scalable, robust 3D models on accelerating drug development and improving selection of candidate therapies (17:22)Key Takeaway:Bioprocess development starts when you choose the model that validates your therapeutic approach. If that model can't capture the biology that matters, every downstream optimization is built on a flawed foundation.In Part 2, Catarina reveals how 3D tumor microenvironments expose drug resistance mechanisms invisible in 2D cultures, and her vision for AI-powered digital twins enabling personalized medicine.Subscribe & Review:If this conversation changed how you think about preclinical model selection, leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most common questions in his 20 years of practice: what to do about enlarged adenoids, tonsils, and chronic ear infections. He reveals the hidden root cause that most doctors overlook—the "plumbing problem" caused by subluxation and lack of movement in the neurospinal system. Dr. Tony explains why movement is essential for drainage and provides a balanced decision-making framework for parents, including when natural care is enough and when surgical intervention may be necessary as a last resort.----Links & ResourcesNEI supersystem episode [Apple/Spotify]Deep Dive Episode on PANDAS/PANS [Apple/Spotify]-----Key Topics & Timestamps05:00 The Hidden Root Cause: The Plumbing Problem07:00 Why Antibiotics & Ear Tubes Don't Fix the Root Issue10:00 Movement is Life: The Key to Drainage14:00 The Role of Diet, Inflammation & Mucus Production17:00 The Balanced Approach: Natural First, Medical as Last Resort18:00 Principle #24: The Limitations of Matter22:00 Age Matters: Younger Kids Have More Neuroplasticity'27:00 The Decision-Making Framework: Exhaust Natural Options First-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Send us a textLesson 17: The Journey of the SoulOpening SectionParagraphs: 16-19What if the world doesn't need fixing—and neither do you? We dive into a bracing, compassionate teaching from Jeshua that reframes suffering, service, and the endless drive to optimize. Instead of chasing control, we explore how judgment disguises fear, how the ego builds identity on action and opinion, and why a higher awareness perceives no problems to solve.From there, we zoom out to the soul's vantage point. Spirit abides beyond time and chooses incarnation as a relational, creative experience. We talk about soul groups, resonant lessons like forgiveness and courage, and the veil of forgetfulness that makes the human game meaningful. No outside force compels us to be here; sovereignty sits at the center, dissolving narratives of punishment or fate. That single insight can soften resistance and awaken responsibility without shame.We also challenge optimization culture. When the drive to improve comes from lack, it never ends. Limitation, approached with curiosity, becomes a forge for creativity and compassion. We share practical ways to remember—breath work, prayer, nature, movement—and how to meet pain without bypassing it. Daily life becomes your ashram: a place to practice presence, to welcome constraints, and to ask the transformative question, Can I find God here too?If this perspective stirs something in you, join us for the full conversation.

Welcome to the DMF. I'm Justin Younts, and in this episode, Alexandra Beller dives deep into the four categories of energy: weight, space, time, and flow—and how understanding these elements can radically transform an actor's process.Alexandra explains that each category exists on a spectrum, and learning to work with them gives actors practical, embodied tools instead of vague direction. She addresses a common frustration performers face: when a director asks for something like “more aggressive” without explaining what that actually means. Alexandra breaks down how to translate those abstract notes into clear, physical choices that live in the body.She emphasizes that the body often understands things language can't articulate, and that tapping into physical instinct leads to more truthful, grounded performances. Alexandra also shares her approach to directing, which prioritizes physicality, intuition, and energetic awareness over rigid intellectual analysis.Throughout the conversation, she explores how actors can use energy dynamics to deepen their work—whether in rehearsal, performance, or character preparation. Alexandra also discusses the balance between instinct and analysis, showing how both can coexist to elevate an actor's craft rather than compete with each other.If you're an actor looking to unlock new levels of creativity, presence, and expression, this episode offers powerful tools to rethink how you approach performance. Join us as we explore the language of energy—and how it can revolutionize your acting journey.00:00:00 - Introduction00:00:05 - Understanding the Four Categories of Energy00:00:38 - Interpreting Directing Terms00:00:56 - Interpreting Directing Terms: Case Study00:01:27 - The Limitations of Traditional Directing Terms00:02:35 - The Role of Embodiment in Acting00:04:10 - The Limitations of Vocabulary00:04:41 - The Power of Body Language00:06:44 - The Role of Contradiction in Acting00:08:36 - The Importance of Balance Between Analysis and Intuition00:11:04 - The Role of Analysis in the Creative Process00:11:15 - The Role of Intuition in the Creative Process00:12:57 - The Importance of Tasting the Work00:14:08 - The Role of Animal Instincts in Acting00:15:20 - Analyzing an Actor's Kinesphere00:16:03 - The Case of Antonio's Song00:16:51 - Using Animal Instincts in Character Development00:17:42 - The Process of Character Movement Analysis00:18:14 - Creating Character Profiles for Performance00:19:08 - The Challenge of Multiple Characters in One PerformanceCheck out her website: https://www.alexandrabellerdances.org/
Every year around this time, you probably find yourself caught up in the same cycle. You tell yourself that when the calendar flips to January, everything will be different.Even if you keep announcing a new year and a new you, you have to realize that it has nothing to do with actual change. A different number on the calendar doesn't have the power to fix your habits or your bank account. Change only happens when you make a conscious choice to stop doing things that don't work and start doing things that do.In this Diamond Life Mentor Uncut episode, Balazs W Kardos celebrates the New Year as he looks back with an Accelerator call to debunk what it's like to lie to yourself at the end of the holidays.You will hear powerful insights and motivation around:Limitations of financial successReflecting every New YearMaking consistent healthy habitsChanging for the betterTransitioning into a psychopathic business builderBalazs wants you to start by being honest with yourself about where you are right now. It is easy to live in a state of delusion where you think you are more successful than you actually are. In your head, you might think you are a great spouse, a hard worker, or a healthy person. But if you want to know the truth, look at the data.Look at your bank statements. Look at your calendar. Look at your health metrics. These numbers reveal your real priorities. They show you exactly where you spent your time, money, and energy over the last twelve months.If you feel stuck, it might be because your work lacks purpose. You might be using your job as a stepping stone, which is fine, but you eventually have to build something that provides the freedom you want. When you get clear on your priorities, you stop making excuses. You start taking every call and attending every meeting because you have a vision that is bigger than your comfort zone."What has to do with change is actually a conscious choice of what you're going to eliminate and what you're going to start doing as a swap of your energy, habits, income, time, and replacing things that no longer serve you." - Balazs W KardosIf you are tired of the same results, you have to stop the excuses.

In this conversation, the discussion with C. Thi Nguyen revolves around the nature of metrics, qualitative knowledge, and the duality of scoring systems, particularly in the context of climbing. The speaker shares personal experiences with climbing as a case study to illustrate how scoring systems can both enhance and detract from the experience. The conversation delves into the beauty of climbing, the subtlety of value in metrics, and the importance of savoring moments in games. It also explores the tension between purpose and game mechanics, the role of enjoyment, and the complexities of scoring systems in both games and life. Ultimately, the conversation highlights the challenges of balancing values in decision-making and the risks associated with the gamification of various aspects of life.Takeaways Metrics can miss the subtlety of qualitative knowledge. Scoring systems can enhance or detract from experiences. Climbing serves as a unique case study for scoring systems. The beauty of climbing lies in its scoring system. Values can become obscured when metrics are prioritized. Games allow for exploration of different scoring systems. Achievement play focuses on winning, while striving play values the process. External expectations can pressure individuals to conform to metrics. The addictive nature of games can lead to negative experiences.Chapters 00:00 The Intricacies of Portability and Judgment 01:12 Introduction and Social Media Presence 03:40 The Value of Climbing and Scoring Systems 07:16 The Impact of Numbers in Climbing 09:42 Savoring the Moment vs. Obsession with Scoring 10:59 Goals vs. Purpose in Games 12:39 Understanding Value Capture 17:53 The Shift in Standards of Success 20:33 The Limitations of Metrics 21:42 Games as a Reflection of Human Desire 24:37 The Purpose Behind Scoring Systems 26:07 The Magic Circle of Games 29:15 Achievement Play vs. Striving Play 34:47 When Games Become Unsafe 38:21 The Pitfalls of Portability in MetricsFollow Thi on Twitter, Bluesky, and find his website.

In a recent episode of the Joe Rogan show, evolutionary biologist and public intellectual Bret Weinstein observed that two emerging features of contemporary societies, especially, though not exclusively in the West, are challenging the very meaning and purpose of human life: 1) the decoupling of human sexuality from human reproduction—defining sex primarily as recreational and 2) with the rise of AI and robotics, the real possibility that having a job will become entirely optional in the future. By secular standards, pursuing both of these goals seems entirely rational, if not laudable: raising children and going to work are, indeed, challenging, so why shouldn't we live in a world in which both become increasingly rare? Weinstein, however—who doesn't profess adherence to any religious tradition—suggests that humanity may lose something important, if not essential, if we continue down this path. Is he right to be concerned? Is it, in fact, wise to relegate having children and going to work—which defined how most people spent most of their adult lives throughout history—entirely to the realm of subjective preference? Or, in seeking ever greater freedom from these responsibilities, are we undermining what it means to live a fully human life? A listener asks: How can I respond to "God loves me the way I am"? Topics Covered: 00:00 | Introduction 01:39 | Bishop Barron's Christmas season 02:48 | Examining Bret Weinstein's grim assessment 06:36 | Procreation as a sign of the covenant 09:34 | Why not frame children through the lens of lifestyle choice? 13:23 | The valorization of personal choice 16:31 | What about celibate priests? 17:52 | Work and technology 23:42 | Can AI or robotics truly replace the human genius? 25:48 | Limitations for using AI 28:06 | The necessity of work in giving a gift 30:02 | Why can't technology help us create heaven on earth now? 33:01 | The active dimension of rest 37:03 | Join the Word on Fire Institute Links: Papal Encyclical, Humanae Vitae: Vatican website Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/ NOTE: Do you like this podcast?

🧭 REBEL Rundown 🗝️ Key Points 💨 NIV = Support without a tube: CPAP, BiPAP, and HFNC improve oxygenation and reduce the work of breathing.🫁 CPAP = Continuous pressure: Best for hypoxemic patients (e.g., pulmonary edema, OSA).️ BiPAP = Two pressures (IPAP/EPAP): Great for hypercapnic failure (e.g., COPD, obesity hypoventilation).🌬️ HFNC = Heated, humidified high flow: Reduces effort, improves comfort, and enhances oxygen delivery.🩺 Supportive, not definitive: NIV stabilizes patients while the underlying cause is treated. Click here for Direct Download of the Podcast. 📝 Introduction Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) refers to respiratory support provided without endotracheal intubation. The most common modalities include continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP), and high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC). These therapies aim to improve oxygenation, reduce the work of breathing, and potentially prevent invasive mechanical ventilation. 💨 CPAP and BiPAP CPAP delivers a single, continuous pressure during inspiration and expiration. This pressure (commonly 5–10 cm H₂O) helps recruit atelectatic alveoli, reduce shunt, and improve oxygenation. It is commonly used for conditions like pulmonary edema, obstructive sleep apnea, or mild hypoxemia without significant ventilatory failure.BiPAP alternates between two pressures:Inspiratory positive airway pressure (IPAP), augments tidal volume and unloads inspiratory muscles.Expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP), maintains alveolar recruitment and improves oxygenation.The differential between IPAP and EPAP is critical for reducing hypercapnia in patients with COPD exacerbations or acute hypercapnic respiratory failure.IndicationsCPAP: hypoxemia without major ventilatory failure (e.g., cardiogenic pulmonary edema, atelectasis, OSA).BiPAP: hypercapnia with increased work of breathing (e.g., COPD exacerbation, neuromuscular weakness, obesity hypoventilation).A helpful way to conceptualize CPAP and BiPAP is through the hairdryer analogy. Imagine placing a hairdryer in your mouth: 🩺 Clinical Considerations Masks can be uncomfortable, impair secretion clearance, and limit oral intake.Some patients require sedation to tolerate NIV, but this carries risks in patients with unprotected airways.NIV is thus a high-stakes intervention requiring close monitoring.Common starting dose to understand titration, but start at the level appropriate for your patient: IPAP 10 cm H₂O / EPAP 5 cm H₂O (“10/5”) and are titrated:Increase IPAP to improve tidal volume and CO₂ clearance.Increase EPAP to recruit alveoli and improve oxygenation.Both may be raised simultaneously if the patient is both hypoxemic and hypercapnic. 🚀 High-Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) H: Heated & humidified – improves mucociliary clearance, prevents airway drying, and enhances tolerance. I: Inspiratory flow – high flow meets or exceeds patient demand, reducing respiratory rate and effort.F: Functional residual capacity – modest generation of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), promoting alveolar recruitment.L: Lighter – generally more comfortable and less restrictive than mask-based NIV.O: Oxygen dilution – minimizes entrainment of room air, delivering higher and more predictable FiO₂.W: Washout – flushes anatomical dead space, reducing CO₂ rebreathing.HFNC delivers heated, humidified oxygen at high flow rates (30–60 L/min) through wide-bore nasal prongs. A mnemonic, H-I-F-L-O-W, helps summarize its mechanisms:Indications: Traditionally used for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (e.g., pneumonia), HFNC is increasingly studied for hypercapnic failure as well, with trials suggesting non-inferiority to BiPAP in select populations.

Ben Leonberg is the writer and director of Good Boy, the breakout indie horror film told entirely from the point of view of a dog. Shot over three years with a crew of three people and made for under seventy thousand dollars, Good Boy became a theatrical and streaming success, earning over $8 million at the box office, mostly due to its inventiveness, emotional depth, and commitment to a single, bold idea.In this episode, Ben tells us the whole story behind Good Boy, from humble beginnings to box office breakout. He also gets into the details behind shooting horror from a dog's point of view, the critical importance of sound design in horror, and the practical lessons he learned while shooting more than four hundred days with his dog Indie.Here are some key takeaways from this conversation with Ben Leonberg.Limitations can be a feature, not a bugBen's process making Good Boy was a masterclass in embracing creative limitations. From directing a dog who couldn't take cues, to shooting without a traditional crew, all while working within a $70,000 budget, Ben built the film around his constraints instead of fighting them. He followed the classic Robert Rodriguez rule: write the movie around what you already have. In Ben's case, that meant a dog and an old cabin.He and his wife shot most of the movie themselves, structuring the entire production around their available resources. The mindset of designing a film around what you can uniquely do is a powerful model for indie filmmakers. In Ben's case, those constraints led to a strikingly original idea: a horror movie told entirely from the perspective of a dog. That single choice shaped every creative decision; camera height, lensing, blocking, editing, sound, and pacing. What began as a limitation became the film's identity.Sound is vital for horrorAs we've covered many times, in horror, sound goes a long way, and Jennifer Kent, Director of The Babadook, even says it's just as important as your visuals. In Good Boy, which had minimal traditional exposition or visual cues, sound became essential—not just for scares, but for tone, tension, and atmosphere. Composer Sam Boutilier went so far as to build a custom instrument to create the film's signature eerie, otherworldly tones that had never been heard before. For horror filmmakers working with limited budgets, sound design isn't just a finishing touch but an opportunity to elevate the entire film.A long production timeline can be an advantageThe film was shot over three years, across more than 400 shoot days. With such a small team and total control over gear and scheduling, Ben was able to work slowly and deliberately, testing ideas, reshooting scenes, refining edits, and evolving the movie over the course of years. In most productions, time is the scarcest and most expensive resource. But when you own the entire timeline, time becomes your biggest asset because it gives you the space to problem-solve creatively, discover better choices, and polish your film beyond the limits of its budget.Show NotesMovies MentionedGood BoyPoltergeistThe ShiningPsychoJawsRaiders of the Lost ArkDuelDrag Me...
For four (plus) years, the USA descended into clear insanity. The Rule of Law has been consistently undermined since long before that. COVID tyranny was followed up by the spectacle of a senile imposter and a regime that was so far gone that ‘wokeness’ demanded the blind to even be incapable of discerning a man from a woman, much less right from wrong. And then, finally, the pendulum seemed to be to swing back in the opposite direction. The election fraud, while almost overwhelming, proved insufficient to overcome the backlash against Idiocy on Parade. And much has been reversed. At least temporarily. But not a single indictment, much less prosecution for treason, has happened. Now the Statue of Limitations for many of the obvious crimes associated with the J6 Fedsurrection has been allowed to pass, to no real effect, and the Somali-land Minnesota Fraud-o-rama seems to have given way to the long-anticipated “We NEED Another George Floyd – NOW” riot parade. And “AI” seems capable of manipulating information, and perhaps even Truth, like never before. But at least we have been warned. Prepare for War

Are you ever truly safe? Recently, I have noticed more and more studies around the impact it has on the body when someone doesn't feel safe. But what if you never feel safe? What then? Are you doomed to have a fried nervous system? Or an overreaction to everything? Is there any hope of peace?True safety comes from awareness. It comes from knowing, being, perceiving and receiving. Not from a conclusion that someone or something is “safe”. So what if all you have to do is expand those? What would your reality be like then? Let's explore more in the Curious Universe Podcast

In this essential episode of the Prolonged Field Care (PFC) Podcast, host Dennis sits down with CRNA Kevin to dive deep into one of the most overlooked yet critical issues in trauma care: Hypothermia prevention and management. Even in warm environments, trauma patients can rapidly become hypothermic—leading to coagulopathy, increased bleeding, wound infections, and worse outcomes. Dennis and Kevin break down the science, real-world lessons from deployments, and practical strategies for austere and prolonged field care settings.Whether you're a medic, provider, or anyone involved in combat casualty care, this episode will change how you approach keeping patients warm under fire or in remote locations.Episode Highlights:The four main mechanisms of heat loss: radiation (40-60% of total loss), convection, conduction, and evaporation—and how to counter each one effectively.Why even healthy patients cool rapidly under anesthesia, and why trauma patients in the field are at much higher risk.Practical tips for austere environments: using tents, inflatable structures, insulation from the ground, wool blankets, and body heat to raise ambient temperature.Common mistakes that actively cool patients: wet clothing, cold airways (LMAs/ventilation), uncovered exposure, and cold blood/fluid administration.Best bang-for-buck interventions: covering the head, minimizing exposure, drying the patient, using HME filters, and insulating from the ground.Real deployed experiences: keeping trauma bays warm, pre-warming gear, using camping pads on litters, and limitations of Ready-Heat and HPMKs at altitude or in extreme cold.Advanced rewarming techniques (when available): fluid warming, bladder lavage, peritoneal lavage, and ECMO.Temperature monitoring challenges in the field: esophageal, nasopharyngeal, rectal, Foley, and forehead strips—plus how to interpret trends.Chapters:00:00 – Introduction & Why Hypothermia Matters in Trauma Care02:30 – Heat Loss in Anesthesia: Vasodilation and the First-Hour Temperature Drop04:50 – Mechanisms of Heat Loss: Radiation, Convection, Conduction, Evaporation07:10 – OR Strategies: Room Temperature, Head Covering, Fluid Warming, Bear Huggers09:29 – Environmental Control in the Field: Raising Ambient Temperature & Reducing Wind11:52 – Using Tents and Structures to Trap Body Heat14:14 – Insulation from the Ground: Litters, Wool Blankets, Camping Pads, Air Mattresses17:53 – Preventing Conduction & Pressure Sores with Padding19:56 – Avoid Actively Cooling Patients: Cold LMAs, Unheated Ventilation, Wet Clothing22:21 – Heat Moisture Exchangers (HME) & Humidified Gas26:40 – Blood Resuscitation: Cold Fluids vs. Hypovolemia—What Kills First?31:17 – Team-Based Rewarming: Minimize Exposure, Pre-Warm Gear, Dry HPMKs35:22 – Limitations of Battery-Powered Warmers & Bear Huggers in Austere Settings40:04 – Prevention First: Insulate, Cover, Dry—Then Active Rewarming Works Better42:24 – Downstream Effects of Hypothermia: Lethal Triad & Wound Infections44:51 – Aggressive Rewarming Options: Chest Tubes, Gastric/Bladder Lavage, ECMO47:15 – Temperature Monitoring in the Field: Probes, Strips, and Trend InterpretationFor more content, go to www.prolongedfieldcare.orgConsider supporting us: patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective or www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care

Experiencing physical limitations as you age is a normal process for everyone. We may not always be able to do the things we used to as we get older and accepting this reality can be difficult for some. Many older active adults have physical limitations that could have been caused by many things including past injuries, illness or normal wear and tear. Making sure you are OK with these changes and accepting them gracefully will help contribute to a longer and healthier life. In This Episode You Will Learn: 1). Why we decided to dedicate an episode to this important topic and some of the emails and feedback we get from our subscribers regarding their struggles of dealing with physical limitations. 2). How easy it can be to overestimate the amount of energy required to do a workout especially if you've been away from exercise for a while or have struggled with past physical challenges. 3). How our attitudes about why we exercise can change over time and why that can be a good thing later in life. 4). How dealing with physical limitations over time can affect your mental and emotional state. 5). The importance of prioritizing the big picture and long game when it comes to aging and your physical limitations. /// We hope the tips we suggested in this episode are helpful to you or someone you know who may be struggling with their physical limitations and the mental and emotional toll that it can take. Being OK with this is key to becoming the best aging version of yourself and believing that YOU are still all you need. Team MeredithSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
