I LOVE this post! Learning is an incredibly complicated process involving who knows how many cells and biochemical reactions. Guess what coordinates it all?

Your nervous system!!

You have an Innate intelligence that knows how to do this. It’s the same intelligence that knows how to heal and cut or grow a whole human being inside a pregnant mother.

Interference to this Innate intelligence will reduce the ability to grow, heal and learn.

Chiropractors find areas of interference (subluxations) in the nervous system. We use adjustments to correct them so your Innate can flow and let your brilliance shine. It’s that simple.

If you have a spine, you need a chiropractor who will check it regularly for subluxations.

Stay connected! Questions! Just reach out 😊

Learning isn’t just in your head - it’s chemistry in action 🧠⚡

Every new idea triggers chemical signals that strengthen brain connections. That “aha” moment? Your brain literally rewiring itself!

Today is Blue Monday. For some, this is one of the hardest days of the year to get through. The holidays are done, the Christmas lights are down, the bills are flooding in and winter still seems endless.

There is light for you. We're on the other side of the longest day. The evenings are getting longer and the sun is coming up earlier in the morning. Your community cares about you. You are not alone. Join your Port Perry business community today and enjoy some calming, encouraging and brightening of the Blue. There are several events happening throughout the day to help you see the light at the end of winter.

This calendar features events beginning at 11am today. Check them out and let your community love on you a little! Put a comment in the post if you're planning to attend. Tag any of us if you join us!

Monday January 19th is . It is dubbed as the saddest day of the year. Cold weather, dark days, post holiday let down and credit card bills 🤢.

This year, connect with others and at our community events.

You can “Calm the Blue” at Elevate Women’s Health Centre between 5 and 6pm. Bring your journal or just a pen and we’ll provide various journaling prompts to get you started. Enjoy beverages and light snacks while your parasympathetic nervous system kicks in to chill mode.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Beginning Tuesday January 13th, I'm teaming up with Little Gems Nursery and Playschool in Port Perry to offer a "learn and play" workshop series. "Growing Healthy Kids" allows parents to learn while their toddlers play under the supervision of Little Gems staff.

If you've ever wondered how to help your kids grow and develop in the healthiest way possible, this series is for you! Questions like how to support sleep, how the nervous system affects emotional regulation, how car seats and carriers can be used in a way that doesn't negatively impact growing spines and posture and how to create healthy family routines that support your child's confidence and development will be addressed.

This series runs Tuesday afternoons from 4:30 - 5:30pm from January 13th to February 10th (there will be no meet up on Tuesday February 3rd). The cost is $50 and includes all 4 weeks.

Hope to see you there!
P.S. please share in any other parent groups you may be in!

This learn and play series allows parents to learn about healthy child development while their little ones play together!
