Description

Guest: Kerrie Mansfield Rigberg, MS, CCC-SLP - In this episode, Michelle is joined by Kerrie, a highly trained pediatric speech-language pathologist, with experience in the NICU, PICU, Inpatient Pediatric Rehabilitation, Private Practice, and teletherapy. She is here today to talk about the empowering role of yoga for both our pediatric patients, as well as for the treating clinician. Kerrie, who presented, “United on the Mat: Yoga, Meditation & Mindfulness for the SLP, Audiologist & Related Healthcare Provider” at the American Speech-Language and Hearing Association (ASHA) National Convention in Washington, D.C. in November 2021, delights the listener with her favorite research to support the use of yoga for our pediatric patients, the benefits to engaging in interprofessional practice with OTR/Ls via yoga for our patients, as well as the benefits of yoga for improving the therapeutic presence for the treating clinician. Bonus points… near the end she walks the clinician through a series of stretches and quick postures that we can do while sitting at our desks between SOAP note writing! So, get comfy cozy, pull up your notepad and your yoga mat, and let Kerrie inspire you to breathe deep and keep moving forward.
