The Canadian Council of the Blind Podcast

An often requested topic, finally here!

Have listen to my take on the subject and chime in with your thoughts!  

Note:  This is the longest episode we've done.I guess I have lots to say!!

A quick episode that devulges one of my biggest secrets to staying motivated....umm ok, you can probably tell from the title.

Write it down!!!

 

Take a listen to learn more:)

In this episode we discuss the important of managing blood pressure and medications in as natural a way as possible.  Medications is a super important part of staying healthy HOWEVER we can do some things to help our body do things “o natural” !!!

 

Enjoy!

Yup you read that correctly!!  In this episode we recap a few items regarding the program and then we share a bit about Ryan’s experience trying something new..  Trying to prove that pretty much anything can be adapted and enjoyed by those with vision loss.

Lots of updates in this episode and a bit of an analogy (atempted anyways) on why choosing the bumpy, scary, winding path through life may be more difficult but is ultimatley more rewarding.  Don't let your blindness force you onto the freeway...it may be easier, but certainly not as fun!

NOTE:  This is epidode 23, really it is!!!  Realized after the fact I kept calling it 22....but such is life!

 

In this episode we touch very briefly on the topic of mental health, the stigma, or shall i say “hopefully disappearing stigma” of mental health.  We touch on coping mechanisms and then review our “local champions” and “#eyeammmore” campaigns.

 

Would LOVE to hear your ways of dealing with stress, depression or any other mental health concerns you face.

Also REALLY want to hear your #eyeammore story, what makes you...you!!

March 2018 is starting off with some HUGE news!!

#eyeammore. & “Local Champions” 

 

You can get involved in both and help engage, educate and empower your fellow listeners!

This was a bit of an impromptu podcast on a topic I was going to cover in a few weeks time.  However I was sparked by somethign I read and thought I'd get some thoughts out there!

A lot of the discussion here comes from my personal experiences, thoughts and opinions on what is "possible". There really is not an official "kinesiolgoy" hat I'm wearing for this one but rather tapping into my para-athleteics background and how to deal with "barrieris".

 

I absolutley want to hear your thoughts!!!!  Enjoy

***NOTE****

I apologize for eh low volume on the intro and outdo..i’m Playing around with some new music and my settings were a bit off...BUT the middle is good as gold!!

 

In this episode, we take a look at sweat, heart rate and what “activities” are really countable as a replacement for exercise.

 

Take a listen, let us know if you have any questions!!

Thanks “Bob”!  

We received a listener question on how to step up their workout...how to progress and keep things lively.

We all need to start from the basics but certainly need to learn how to progress in our activities in order to keep the body challenged.

 

Take a listen and I encourage you to submit your listener questions as well!
