Do you think Stress is a bad thing? Stress actually helps us learn, grow, heal, evolve, and adapt! Stress is absolutely necessary in our life, as a means of not only surviving, but thriving!
Stress that allows us to grow positively as individuals is termed “Eustress.”
Now we all can relate to feelings of overwhelment, anxiety, fear, worry, doubt, and absolute rotten pain! This type of stress can be termed “Distress.”
Here is what is amazing. We as humans with the Power of our own Minds have the capacity and ability to turn ANY Distress into Eustress! What does that mean exactly? That means you can take a perceived negative stressor and with the Power of your thought and emotion, you can turn it into a positive stressor ~ something that will allow you to grow, learn, heal, evolve and adapt!
Look at stress in a new light ~ look at it as something that can support you gain ultimately more fulfillment in Life. Even those aches and pains for instance can be perceived as an opportunity for you to learn about your body and what it requires from you to live with more vibrancy, so those aches and pains dissolve.
This takes courage, self-discipline, and self-responsibility. We are here to help you on your journey!

Light Bulb Moments
My 6 year old daughter has this peculiar desire to learn how to play chess. Despite my lack of superb chess playing skill, I knew I could teach her the basics. So we sat down this past Saturday morning and fought it out on the chess board. I’m not one to “let my kids win,” yet I point out the good, bad, and downright ugly catastrophic moves. Along the way I absolutely relished watching her mind THINK. I could see her eyes look at a piece and play out the next couple sequential moves in her head. Occasionally her eyes would “light up,” with excitement and her mouth would drop open wide with a smile as she would swipe one of my pieces off the board.
Watching her learn this game of chess made me realize we are never supposed to stop learning. Life is made so much more rich and fulfilling when we are ever expanding our Minds and accumulating those “light bulb,” moments.
Those “light bulb,” moments is where experience imprints itself upon us. Those “light bulb” moments become ingrained so we never forget them. That is where experience creates Wisdom.
We can choose to go about our lives content and satisfied, or worse, cynical and judgmental ~ assuming we know it all about our world OR we can search out and discover what that unconscious desire for growth and expansion is all about in this thing we call LIFE.
Our challenge to you is to engage LIFE to the fullest!

Back Pain/ Neck Pain/ Headaches/ Emotional Well-Being?
Chiropractic was founded on 4 principles:
1. The body is a self-healing organism (you cut your finger versus a corpse’s finger – who’s going to heal?).
2. The nerve system is the master and director of all bodily activity. Everything we experience is processed through our nerve system.
3. Interference can take place to the communication flow from our nerve system to the rest of our body. That interference results in physical, bio-chemical, and emotional symptoms and can lead not only to a sick individual, but a sick society.
4. The chiropractor’s Purpose is to remove the interference taking place over the nerve system (the master communication system) which allows your body to heal and maintain itself from the inside-out. This leads to a healthy, happy individual and multiply that by thousands and you have a healthy, happy society!
So yes, chiropractic is well-known for and can help back pain, neck pain, headaches, etc… BUT chiropractic was never intended for that. It was intended to allow an individual to express and experience 100% LIFE and begin to reach their individual potential!
A greater quality of LIFE, a greater sense of confidence and Well-Being – these are the effects of consistent chiropractic care!

Saving Lives
Your body is either right now this very moment dying or growing. Every moment you truly have the opportunity to save your life, and the lives of others. Every smile, every kind gesture, every act of hope and love saves lives. It is the accumulation of these events that causes life to perpetuate.
Whenever we engage in behavior that is destructive to life – consuming food and beverages that aren’t meant to be consumed; downward spiraling into negative thought patterns of fear, worry, grief, and depression; causing our physical structure to break down because of overuse repetitive motion, lack of exercise, etc…,etc…. we create for ourselves a slow death.
What do you choose? More life expressed in every moment or a slow death?
The chiropractic adjustment you receive restores LIFE! It absolutely removes interference from the communication flow from your brain to your body – increasing your healing, and increasing your performance in every realm of your life!
Who is the real hero? The one who at the end of someone’s life of a slow death – defers death for moments, minutes, days, months, maybe years longer OR the people who choose moment by moment to be on a mission of SAVING LIVES almost INTANGIBLY through sharing more hope, love, optimism and inspiration?
