It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Regardless of your religious affiliation or beliefs, we can all agree that the holidays are for family and friends. It’s the only time of the year dedicated to being with those we love. However, this isn’t always the common mindset of Americans. Many people instead get lost in the pageantry of Christmas, which includes all the decorations and gifts that are bought in order to make this Christmas the best Christmas! This isn’t usually the most ideal approach, as it usually leads to increased amounts of stress, fatigue, sickness, and wishing the holiday season to end. America is the land of plenty. Because of that, we have opportunity and abilities to purchase items that most people in the world would never dream of having. However, because we have such spoils, we tend to not be as satisfied with our belongings in life. After all, material items never bring true happiness and so the search for more never stops. However, we consume them like it’s the only way to reach nirvana. This time of year tends to bring this out more than any other time, which is a shame because of the beauty the holidays should represent. This holiday season, I’m going to ask you to do one thing, become aware of just how perverted our holiday season has become. Take a step back and see what you can do to be more present with those you love and care about, because ultimately, they’re your most important gifts. Do that one thing, and see what a difference it makes in your stress...

If you want great results, you must continuously practice the activity or exercise that will bring about the results you desire. For example, take gaining muscle. For many people, having a sculpted physique and muscles to show off is important. In order to achieve the look they’re after they hit the gym routinely, usually multiple times per week in order to build their muscles so they pop out instead of droop down. If these people were to stop for a few weeks, months, or altogether, what do you think would happen to all the gains they’d experienced? That’s right, the gains would go out the window. The muscles would begin to droop and more fatty tissue would begin moving back in. Our body and nervous system is no different. Just like building muscle, if we want to build a nervous system that functions at the optimum level, without interference, it’s important to get checked and adjusted by a chiropractor routinely. Doing it once will deliver some benefit however, it will be drastly different than the results you could receive by getting checked and adjusted on a regular basis. To some this may be frustrating. However, when you step back and look at our body, this is how all processes work. A one-time experiment could show some positive change but, more consistent effort will show a tremendous positive change. Stay healthy my...

The word service gets thrown around a lot these days and can be used for anything from playing sports all the way to handing out cups of soup to the poor on a Saturday. To be clear, when we talk about “service”, we mean helping those who are in need, or less fortunate than you. Mother Theresa and Gandhi portrayed this very well throughout their lives. By serving out of a sense of abundance, they changed tens of thousands of lives. We should all be striving to do the exact same thing in our daily lives. When you look around you often see that people get stuck in the rat race trying to make as much money as they can, so they can enjoy their lives. Unfortunately, happiness doesn’t come from money. It comes from fulfillment. One of the quickest ways to fulfillment is to engage in activities to give back to others. Service not only brings fulfillment and happiness, but it also brings more of what you put out. Your energy and your compassion always come back around to you. So, get into the mode of service. Give more. Love more. Serve more. Stay healthy...

Harmony Music is amazing. Thinking about all the complexities and nuances to music can literally go on forever. One of the most beautiful things about music is the harmony, when one’s vocals blend perfectly with another’s. Music just sounds better when it’s in harmony. When it’s not, it sounds wrong, hard to listen to, like nails on a chalkboard. Just like music, our bodies work best in harmony. When we are in harmony with our environment, our bodies project health and well-being. When we’re out of harmony, disease and illness moves in. Our nervous system is constantly communicating all over our body. If there is disruption in this communication signal, there is a loss of harmony. In other words, wherever the signal was supposed to be going is effectively shut off from the rest of the body. At first there may not be symptoms. However, if left uncorrected long enough, disease begins and symptoms will usually start to increase. The nervous system is the master control of the body and it needs harmony to work. Harmony exists in all life, not just in our bodies or in music. Everything works better when it works together, as a team. See how you can produce more harmony in your body by living closer with the laws of nature. Hint: You do this by eating, thinking, and moving correctly. We will discuss each of these in more detail in upcoming blogs. Stay healthy...
