So today I celebrate life. 60 awesome year!!!😲
For those that don't know (I really don't talk about it too often) I was very sick most of my childhood. I was born with a congenital kidney disease and the doctors did their best with numerous surgeries but truthfully back in the early 60s they really had no idea what to do. I spent my childhood in and out of hospitals and on a ton of pharmaceuticals.
In my early twenties I got sick of being sick. I started figuring some things out on my own. I incorporated diet and exercise into my lifestyle. I found out that drinking soda really irritated my kidneys. Certain foods would always give me a bladder infection. I had no immune system. Anytime a cold or flu would go around I'd be sick for days. When I contracted chicken pox in fifth grade it landed me in the hospital for months, and mono my senior year school almost sent me to my death bed. It was a miracle that I got to graduate with my class.
Why am I sharing this with you today? I feel we all know people that feel there is no hope with their diseases and ailments. The world has changed in 60 years and there's so many things that we can do big and small to encourage healthy living.
There actually are a lot of moments that I'm so blessed that this is all happened to me. I feel that I would not be the person I am today without these childhood events. It has taught me so much compassion, strength, and determination. And the most awesome thing is I don't think I ever would have pursued a career in Chinese medicine if it hadn't been for all of this.
I really don't need any comments from this post. What I am asking is that you share this with people that you know that are in unhealthy lifestyle and want to get better. I would love to help them on their Journey and/or refer them to people I know that could help them. With a lot of hard work and determination and someone to guide them I feel that anything is possible!!!
Acupuncture, Chiropractic, Nutrition , exercise, mindfulness, meditation, sunshine, friends, even some great supplementation (Juice Plus) can so impact your health. Know that all of these can be so powerful.
So come on.. let's get healthy together!!!
Thanks for listening!

Did you know acupuncture helps with insomnia?
The 3 organs linked to insomnia are the spleen, heart and kidneys.
An imbalance with the spleen can show itself in overthinking or your brain not being able to shut off.
AN imbalance with the heart is often presented in the form of anxiety.
Imbalance in the kidneys or adrenals can cause fluctuation in body temperature and make it difficult to get comfortable.

Chiropractic and weight loss.
Who knew??? ⬇️
When a spinal subluxation occurs, the nerve pathways become misaligned. Because the spinal column contains nerves that send information to the rest of the body, this can hinder its reception. The signals to your brain, for example, that indicate that your body is full or that you are hunger can be hampered.
Spinal subluxations can also result in a decreased range of motion or chronic pain. This can make it difficult for you to be physically active so you can lose weight

Let's talk about massage and trauma. Here's how massage can support trauma healing:
--Massage is particularly relevant to trauma treatment because traumatized individuals often suffer from hyper-arousal and hyper-vigilance. In a state of stress and tension, their muscles may be constricted, and their bodies flooded with cortisol, a stress hormone that can be harmful with long-term exposure--
🫐Why are berries important?🫐
.
Berries are full of antioxidants which are molecules that fight free radicals in the body. If the amount of free radicals in your body is too high, you increase your risk of illness, disease, and even cancer. So antioxidants, help keep that number down in order to keep you healthy.
.
Added bonus? Berries are generally lower in sugar than other fruits, which makes them a great low carb snacking option!! Plus they're delicious 😋
