In this episode of "Mental Health Today," host Ken Stearns engages in a conversation with Bizzie Gold, an industry disruptor in the field of mental health. Bizzie discusses the intricacies of building rapport in therapeutic relationships and how traditional therapy often involves a lengthy process of establishing trust. She highlights a key challenge in therapy where the therapist aims to gather information from the client's free-form storytelling in the hope of fitting it into predetermined molds or patterns.Bizzie emphasizes the importance of moving beyond storytelling and focusing on data-driven approaches in therapy. She argues that the brain primarily functions on data rather than stories and that therapists should prioritize sustainability and effectiveness.

She highlights the importance of helping clients break free from this entanglement and regain a sense of freedom and identity.The episode touches on various aspects of therapy, including the need for innovation in the field, the challenges of breaking away from traditional therapeutic paradigms, and the potential for clients to experience significant healing and transformation through data-driven approaches.Bizzie's insights shed light on the evolving landscape of mental health treatment and the importance of considering alternative therapeutic methods to improve outcomes for clients.For more of  Bizzie  https://www.bizziegold.com/For more of Mental Health Today, visit our:Website:      https://www.thejar.live/about-mental-health-today-by-the-jar-foundationFull episodes with video on Youtube:    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaTqB1dhDvl0Oh505ysdxTgFacebook:      https://www.facebook.com/podcast.thejarInstagram:     https://www.instagram.com/thejar_podcast/Mental Health Today With is a new branch of The Jar, funded by The Jar foundation.Disclaimer: The views stated in this episode are our guest's opinions and do not necessarily represent the views, beliefs or opinions of Mental Health Today With.

In this episode of "Mental Health Today," host Ken Stearns delves into the fascinating realm of chronic pain, mental health, and the surprising connection to posture. Joining him as a guest is Jon Clark, affectionately known as the "Posture Monster," and a true testament to the profound impact of posture therapy on physical and mental well-being.The episode begins with Ken introducing his podcast, "Mental Health Today," which has been diligently weaving a fabric of knowledge and personal stories surrounding mental health and its treatment options. With over a hundred episodes under his belt, Ken has become a curator of diverse narratives, and today's conversation with Jon adds yet another valuable thread to this ever-growing tapestry.Jon Clark's journey into the world of posture therapy and mental health is nothing short of remarkable. He starts by recounting his harrowing experience with severe chronic pain, which began at the age of 17 after a traumatic back injury. Over the course of 18 and a half years, his pain escalated to the point where he spent more than three years confined to a wheelchair. He hit rock bottom, grappling with both physical agony and the emotional toll it took on his mental health.The turning point in Jon's journey came when he discovered posture therapy, a seemingly simple yet highly effective approach. Posture therapy, as Jon explains, goes far beyond just sitting up straight; it involves understanding the alignment and functionality of all major joints in the body. Good posture, he emphasizes, is a byproduct of having a full functional range of motion in these joints. Chronic pain, often intertwined with mental health challenges, can be a result of years of dysfunctional movement patterns, deviations, and compensations in the body.Jon's story is a testament to the intricate connection between chronic pain and mental health. He highlights the alarming statistic that up to 80% of individuals with chronic pain also suffer from various mental health conditions, particularly PTSD and anxiety. The brain, in its quest to draw attention to emotional distress, can manifest physical symptoms, leading to a cycle of suffering that includes stigma and disbelief from others, including healthcare providers.As Ken and Jon discuss, the journey to healing and recovery is multifaceted. It involves not only addressing physical issues but also acknowledging the mental and emotional toll that chronic pain takes. Jon reveals a pivotal moment during a psilocybin experience where he visualized the musculoskeletal system and embarked on a profound healing journey, even for a condition he thought might be irreparable. This highlights the potential for alternative approaches to chronic pain management.The episode concludes with Jon sharing how listeners can connect with him, access his posture therapy resources, and explore his podcast, "Chronic Pain Rewired." Through this enlightening conversation, Ken and Jon shed light on the intricate interplay between chronic pain, mental health, and posture, offering hope and alternative solutions to those who may be trapped in a cycle of suffering.For more in-depth insights and the full conversation, be sure to listen to the complete episode on "Mental Health Today" featuring Jon Clark, the Posture Monster.
