Are you a recovering perfectionist??? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
(currently raising my hand)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's real. I feel like I spent most of my childhood pushing myself to meet expectations and doing a horrible job at setting my own personal boundaries. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sound like you?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How do we bounce back from that? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One thing we can do is BREATHE. Someone once pointed out to me that the physical manifestation of perfectionism is a tight ribcage. I resistant ribcage. Because god forbid it felt free. So to reset that perfectionist box you've put yourself in? BREATHE.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Try the box breathing for starters: 4 counts in, 4 count hold, 4 counts out, 4 count hold. This brings your power back into your breath and allows for you to set your own boundaries while staying in a place of ease. If you are connected to your breath, you are connected to you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Any other questions about breathwork? There are so many ways to approach this!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Curious how chiropractors can help release the rigidity in the ribcage? (My favorite thing ever). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

A big thing I hear from my patients is that I’m not just a “wham bam thank you ma’am” type of chiropractor. I spend TIME to listen, understand and assess the body, the system, the person as a whole. That energetic resonance is important as a chiropractor, and as a healer in general. Show up for your people in full capacity. They’re truly just waiting to be heard.

Your reality is what you create. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Trust me, I've been there. I've been the victim and I've held onto that story HARD. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And this post isn't here to invalidate what you're going through. I find that a lot of people who come across this statement feel like they're being brushed off to "stop complaining," That's not it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I hear you. I feel you. Your voice is valid, your call for help is heard. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But are you working on how you speak to yourself?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How can you be your best partner? How can you nurture yourself as you nurture a child? How do we take all the things that have let us down in the past and breathe life into the opportunities they opened for us or the lessons they taught us to make us stronger, wiser, smarter, better?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your journey is only being given to you because you, ONLY YOU, can handle it. I am a firm believer of this. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our imperfections, our challenges and our greatest sorrows are ultimately our deepest lessons.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Healing always starts with you. How can you look at yourself as a badass resilient warrior instead of a victim?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What are you grateful for? Start there and keep moving. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Happy evolution!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Did you know chiropractic isn't just for PAIN??​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Yes - we help alleviate pain, absolutely. But pain doesn't happen without dysfunction. What are other signs of nervous system dysfunction? Muscle tightness, anxiety, insomnia or sleep issues, hormonal imbalance, food sensitivities or gut dysregulation, headaches, frequent ear infections, vertigo, tinnitus, incontinence, numbness/tingling, and the list goes on...​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Feeling off?? Come see me! I would love to help :)​​​​​​​​
