“Wow, I can’t believe that adjustment REALLY worked!”
Said me 😂
I had quite an interesting experience this weekend I wanted to share with you 💌
Friday morning, I went to the gym to do my workout.
And I went even though my neck and back felt kind of tight, “cracky,” and just plain off. Do you know what I mean?
I know myself well enough to know that I could do the workout, despite not exactly brimming with energy and connection through my nervous system and body.
So I did the workout, feeling glad that I was doing it, but not exactly enjoying the process if you know what I mean 😱😂🙏
Saturday morning I went to the gym again and did the SAME workout 💥😮💥
As I went along, I kept thinking “Wow, I can’t believe how great I feel!”
I felt energized, alive, and connected. Every movement was a joy! And when I ran, I felt different in my hips and legs; like I could actually focus into them and feel even better and more aligned ✨
This time, my workout felt like an opportunity to feel and function well. I felt like I was suddenly anchoring proper movements and biomechanics through my nervous system and into my body!
So what was different? More sleep? Less tired from seeing clients? More hydrated?
Nope. Nope. And nope 😂😱😬
I had actually been out to dinner with these two bright souls of New Day where I drank wine and then came home to not get the greatest night’s sleep before waking up to a busy morning with clients in the sunshine room at New Day 😳
Later on in the afternoon, after the workout and when I was back at home, it finally dawned on me why I felt so different.
“Wow. I can’t believe it. That adjustment really worked!”
I had seen the chiropractor I’ve been seeing on Friday shortly after the workout 💥😮💥🙌
Some of you might recognize these lovely ladies from the
“old New Day” ☀️👯♀️💗
So you might be wondering why I, a chiropractor, am so surprised that chiropractic worked on me 🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️
I’ve had a mentor –another chiropractor– tell me once that she HATES when new clients come to her office who are used to receiving Network Spinal 😱
“They’re snobs. They think they know everything,” she would say.
And I couldn’t exactly disagree 😂😂🙏
We are spoiled, I suppose, by a technique that 1) doesn’t pose harm to us 2) doesn’t overstimulate us 3) and doesn’t activate our fight/flight/freeze response in an effort to force things into place and outsmart our bodies 🙌
But once you get past the particulars of comparing Network Spinal the technique to other forms of chiropractic, there’s something else underneath that.
I alluded to this last week in my blog about my care for you not simply being a kinder, gentler, or even a “smarter” way for you to temporarily win a fight with your body 😬😐💪😱
I am very clear, and wish for you to be increasingly clear, that Network Spinal works because it changes YOU, your nervous system, and how you process life and feedback from your body ✨🥰✨
Your particular pain that you want to get better in my care? When that gets better, it’s a SIDE BENEFIT to the real benefit you’re receiving.
The real benefit? The pencil is getting sharper! The lenses havwe been cleaned! the operating system has been updated!!!
And so yes, I am going to be VERY choosy about my own care (and I hope you are too when it comes to adding members to your healing team!) ☀️
Many of you are already aware that there simply aren’t very many other Network Spinal doctors around these parts 🤠
Because of this, I don’t receive Network Spinal anywhere near as often as you probably do! 😮😮😮
And so that makes it tough on my healing team. Because I’m not regularly receiving care that does so much for me.
And when I try to add members to my healing team, I have sometimes found that it is NOT a fit 🛑
They’re busy trying to “fix” and change my alignment– and I’m over here wishing for something that would give my “observer” new prescription lenses (metaphorically speaking) 🤓
When it comes to receiving amazing, transformational care, I double down when I get the chance. Going to The Gate, Joe Dispenza. Tony Robbins, and other Energy Rich and transformational events.
In an effort to get more care for myself, I’ve tried some things recently that were not only not helpful, but actually made me worse! (I’ll tell you in person)
Recently I’ve been seeing Dr. Will of Light Touch chiropractic. He’s been doing what he’s doing forever, and I very much value his focus and care.
And sometimes. as I described, I get a result that connects me to my big picture and helps propel me forward!!
Thank you for your connection and engagement, sunshine. I look forward to seeing you tomorrow, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and beyond 💖
I made some borscht today! So tasty! #nevertoowarmforsoup
