A braintrust, dear friend and fellow Chiropractor told me about a year ago, when I was on one of my rants about allopathy and their lack of respect for humanity told me....stand three times stronger for what you believe and let it all sort out, and I am working at it. Almost said I am trying, but try means that you are just not committed to doing it, and the only thing you do effectively by trying is sleeping!
It is my feeling that you should fight for your own principles, you should have a code of ethics...a vision...values that you will stick your feet in the ground and you will not budge. Called having courage. Sometimes when you do the "right thing" it creates that "unpopularity that the uncourageous or the weanies will not like, example...sending letters to you that do not have a signature or return address or posting a response without using their name or email....hmm examples that I will address later. Stand strong for right is right and moral!!!
But you have to have the courage to take a stand, without flinching or retreating even when it is unpopular and NOT flinch...obviously I am talking here when that courage is of HIGH MORAL VALUE and is a massive WIN for humanity!!!! Moral courage will challenge that risk on your principles, don't ever lose your principles, as they are your authentic blueprint of WHO you are on the inside. So take a stand and hold strong on your values and principles and don't fold.
Where I am going with this...I love this profession of ChiropracTIC so strong that I will take a stand for what IT is. The IT is what it is all about, what is YOUR IT. IT is your line in the sand, where do you draw. The IT to me is what allows humanity to live the lifestyle of THEIR dreams, to allow humanity to live a lifestyle to their full potential. For some reason we have grown to believe that adding chemistry to the body makes it run body, "BS," now before the panic hits (on both sides) there are times that allopathic intervention is required, but at the rate that we are going, enuf...better life through better chemisty, that model is well, STUPID. Do you really believe that AMERICAN home sapiens were genetically made as we evolved to need for narcotics, let's think back to our great-grandparents, they did NOT require the mass amount of "new and improved drugs" as they aged, but today we do...if we continue down this path can you imagine the amount that "the experts" will say we "need!" Time to change and change fast, this new generation of kids, for the first time, have a lower life expectancy than their parents...mom's and dad's here is your line in the sand.
I firmly believe that the ChiropracTIC adjustment does things beyond what we can even fathom on what is occuring in the body...and that you are sooo better off with and adjustment than without one. Not just for the aspect of pain, what I mean is you do NOT have to have "pain" to get adjusted...what we do is utilize the Insight Subluxation Station to measure the FUNCTION of the body, if there is evidence of a subluxation, not just pain, then an adjustment should be performed to allow the body to adapt better to it's external environment.
But if we do not address the stress factors that the body is being exposed too and reduce or eliminate them, well the subluxations will continue and evolve, to what I do not KNOW??? It is our responsibility as DOCTORS of ChiropracTIC to educated the practice member on the LIFE, because part of the DOCTOR "title" is to educate, NOT dictate (leave that to the allopaths) on what is going on with the practice members body...to educate...to teach..to lead them to a better lifestyle. If ALL (and for those who wish to blow a gasket...I mean this in the manner that there is MORE to do for our practice members and humanity..so relax) we are doing is getting a person out of pain...and when that pain factor sets in, it does feel good, but there is more, if we do NOT address the incorrect lifestyle choices, won't the subluxation return?? Should you not break the pattern of poor lifestyle choices to improve life, after all isn't that what ChiropracTIC is all about?
Our office is proud to be affiliated with an organization that our practice members can contact to be their Wellness Coach, to allow them, at their own lesiure contact someone who is engaged in positive lifestyle choices, to increase the lasting results of the Spinal Adjustment...believe it or not I received a letter with a non-return, NOT signed by a local Chiropactor...sadly I know who it is cause I recognize his handwriting mocking our office for taking that next step....saying that what we do is BS. Really...you see I stand strong for what I believe, that in addition to delivering a Spinal Adjustment that my practice members
deserve more and it is MY belief that we should coach them to better lifestyle choices, so we created an alliance with a organization that Coaches people to that...and WE proudly endorse that with our signature, we are NOT afraid post our name it.
You see some in the public are actually more afraid of their own limitations and to make an excuse for that limitation they knock down those who BELIEVE in what they are doing, you know an excuse that you give is a lie that you believe is true. Or as Zig Ziglar says and excuse is only made to please yourself...so are you happy.
