Life is a balancing act. Chiropractors recognize that there is a balancing act between different forces on us both from outside and inside of our bodies. A fascinating aspect of our bodies is that there are forces that build our body up and forces that break us down.

There is a tremendous amount of wisdom that we have inside of ourselves that we can benefit from if we take a moment to stop and recognize it. Chiropractors, working with the body instead of trying to “treat” it, are naturally good at recognizing this wisdom lurking within us.

How we make decisions can tell us a lot about ourselves. Oftentimes, it can show us a lot about ourselves that we didn’t even realize. For example, the simple decision “I am going to go to the store to get some food because I will be hungry.” How many factors go into how to make this decision?

And so is (nearly) everyone else.

Between television, phone screen time, coding workshops, and wired school classrooms, many kids today are growing up sedentary.

While at the same time, research has shown that we understand more than ever the benefits of movement for children’s development

Pregnancy is a very real physical change and demand. Not to mention the many aspects of delivery. “I’ve heard chiropractic care can help me be more active through my pregnancy,” is a common call on the office line. “And feel less miserable.” (If they are being honest).

Growing up, most adults today took many a tip from the most peaceful man in show business, Mr. Fred Rogers. Mr. Rogers was famous for his kind and gentle mannerisms, his soft voice, and even more so his mild-mannered attire. What better person to be the Maitre d’ of story time for young ones for generations – 31 years of television, to be precise.

We hold tremendously beneficial wisdom inside every one of us. When we stop a moment to recognize it, it can shift our perspective in powerful ways. Inside of our body, as well as in life, most of our most precious and valued possessions are fragile. An obvious example is when our children are first born, the newborn baby is both adored by all and extremely vulnerable.

Taking a very close look at the body, will reveal a constant habit that is wise to emulate in your life. That habit is the constant rejuvenation and repair that occurs inside of your body at nearly all times. In today’s ‘more is better, faster is greater’ society, so many of us live at a frantic pace that makes time for real restoration hard to come by.

A lesson you learn working in a chiropractic office is that people are motivated by pain.

You have likely experienced this yourself.

A problem arises, seems relatively minor, and gets no attention – until it gets worse, and worse, and worse, and DEMANDS your ATTENTION with PAIN.

Chiropractic is about bringing “more” into your life.

The challenge is that these days it can be hard to bring more into your life…

Without it breaking you down.
