Show Notes
In this episode, Dr. Kashey talks about his free workshop titled "How to Love Using Your Body, Even If It's Embarrassing, and It Sucks," which aims to help individuals overcome the frustrations and barriers associated with adopting an active lifestyle. He introduces the SRO (Stimulus-Response-Outcome) model, which focuses on addressing the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral aspects that contribute to the avoidance of physical activity. Dr. Kashey shares the inspiring story of Tabitha, a former client who successfully transformed her life by losing over 120 pounds, reversing diabetes, and learning to enjoy using her body through the techniques taught in the workshop. The workshop emphasizes the importance of identifying and challenging distorted beliefs, negative emotions, and avoidance behaviors related to exercise. Dr. Kashey stresses the concept of self-respect, which involves forming conclusions about actions and outcomes rather than defining oneself based on perceived laziness or inactivity. He highlights Tabitha's journey from being the "empress of avoiding sports" to gradually increasing her physical activity and experiencing numerous health benefits as a result.
