True/False, Multiple Choice or Essay...
As school is starting up I'm intrigued by how the kids are excited for or loathing the first day back. I see parents that are stressed and figuring out new schedules of how to get little Johnny to school, soccer practice and swim lessons. There are so many challenges of time committments, work schedules and making healthy choices to eat right for the whole family. My question is...when kids come home from school, do the parents ask, "how was your day?" or "what did you learn at school today?"
Children need to be positively encouraged and need questions that make them think.
Prepping for tests was never easy...if there was an essay test we all studied a little more and a little harder not knowing what could be on the test.
If it was an multiple choice test...maybe we skimmed through some chapters but we could weed out and figure out the answers and still pull a good grade.
If it was a true/false test/quiz...did we really study?
Apply those ideas to kids...if you ask them "how was their day?"... most answer "good" and keep playing video games.
BUT...if you know their favorite subject is science and ask what did you learn in biology today? they will be EXCITED and their answer will be thoughtful and EPIC. How will they feel if you know and ask about what they enjoy in school?
Do you want your childrens education to be "good"....or "EPIC"?
Think about what you ask and to whom...

"I got 99 problems but my kids on drugs ain't one"
I read this quote today while skimming across my Facebook newsfeed.
It caught my attention as it is a parody of an old school rap song.
Then I looked at it again and realized that it meant much more than just
being a funny line.
This is the reality for many people. Children hooked on medications. Parents addicted to pain killers. Kids selling their prescription meds in school. And these are the LEGAL drugs!
Sadly so much of this could be prevented and changed if people simply were told the truth. The truth that drugs are never the answer. Yes, they can save your life in a crisis, but they will NEVER create health. They simply cause your body to weaken and depend on them more when taken long-term.
You see, your body was created with all the health it ever needed. The Power inside our body that was there when we started as a sperm and an egg is still there now. It resides inside of us and flows thru our nerves to every cell in our body making sure everything is working properly and at it's best!
This is why it is so important that we have a fully functioning nerve system. When our brain can communicate thru nerves that are working at 100%, then the rest of our body functions at 100% too! When there is nerve disturbance anywhere in the system it weakens the body to less than it's best. This makes us more susceptible to sickness, disease and many other problems that are completely preventable.
A Chiropractic checkup is your best chance at preventing these problems and giving yourself the opportunity for an amazingly high quality of life! Just Do It!!!

Kids and Chiropractic
I was talking with my neighbor the other day and we got on the
subject of children and their health. She mentioned how it was really
hard because you never know if your kids are going to be healthy or
sick...she said 'you just have to hope for the best.'
I explained to her that our daughters were amazingly healthy and that we made choices that increased their potential to be healthy. I listed Chiropractic among other things and she was noticeably confused. She said 'but children don't have bad backs, do they?'
I explained to her how Chiropractic wasn't about bad backs and pain, but how your nerve system is the master control system of your body and how the healthier the nerve system is the better health potential you and your children have. Her eyes began to get bigger as she started to understand the reality of what I was explaining to her.
You see, we don't see kids necessarily because they have anything wrong with them. Nor do we see adults for that reason. We actually see them because we want them to have the best life experience possible and the only way to do that is to have a nerve system that is free of interference and functioning at its highest potential.

It's not the Band Aid...
Have you ever wondered when you cut yourself how the body heals? Or
is it just me? As a little boy I "used" to think that the band aid had
the magic powers...when your parents put it on they had this special gift and this band aid would "heal" the injury...guess what...NOT TRUE!!
That gift resides within YOU...that in itself is the gift. I mean how amazing is this, you possess the gift to heal..to recover...inside of YOU, and sadly...some, not all take it for granted without even realizing or even worse yet, taking proper care of that "thing" that helps you recover or "heal."
You see it's not the band-aid, the pill, the lotion or motion, or even the health care provider (although it does play a part, they have to be competant in respecting you and your ability to recover properly), it all comes down to YOU...the Master Machine. How cool is that!!!
But what is the 'GIFT" that controls us..simple, it is YOUR NERVE SYSTEM, the master controller, it's not BIG PHARMA, is your inner response team. And it not only controls the recovery of the body, it regulates YOU 100%...but what if it is not functioning properly?
Think for a bit, what if the thermostat in your refrigerator was not working right, what would happen to the "stuff" inside, how would that milk taste? Yep...you got it, you just got that taste in your mind!!
Who focuses on your NERVE SYSTEM...WE do, Doctors of Chiropractic, so to make it simple, get your nerve system checked regularly, because you LIVE YOUR LIFE THROUGH YOUR NERVE SYSTEM...time to start LIVING...
It's As Simple As That...

I ate a carrot..
It amazes me that if we think we just ate "good" that would be the
key to good health...that is not the "key"...it is part of the
plan...but if all you did was just "eat a carrot" or drink a healthy
smoothie, but neglected the most important system in your body...it
will NOT work.
I see this posted all over Facebook and other "things" on the internet, etc...eat this, drink this or come to this class on how to live better. And yes good fuel is important, but if you DO NOT HAVE THE POWER SUPPLY all that is useless. If you do not have the power supply the "carrot" that you are eating to BE better just sits in your belly and rots...and then you become organic waste.
Lesson here...make sure that you get your most important system checked, and then if it is not functioning properly get adjusted by your Doctor of Chiropractic, with a Specific Adjustment to return the POWER SOURCE...you see the most important system in your body is your NERVE SYSTEM...
If if is not right, the carrot is just plain a waste!!
BE YOU...

I slept wrong??
Have you ever woke up with a toothache? Have you ever woke up with a
broken arm? Have you ever woke up with neck pain...then said to
yourself..."I must have slept wrong!"
So with that model, and we have all done it or heard it sometime in our life..then does that mean when you wake up feeling great...YOU MUST HAVE SLEPT RIGHT??!!?!? That throws a completely different twist to things doesn't it?
Health and Ill-Health is not a wake up scenario...they are both due to accumulation. Ill-health or Dis-ease is due to the bodies inability to continue to adapt to lifestyle stressors, i.e., the things that you do on a daily basis. The three major categories are Mental...Physical...Chemical Stressors...when the bodies ability to adapt is beyond what it can handle, the tendency for you to "feel" it is reached.
Examples of Chemical Stressors are bad foods...fast foods/processed foods, drugs, alcohol, coffee, etc, Physical Stressors are lack of exercise, sitting, improper exercise habits, slips, falls and Mentral Stressors are life..the stuff that we mentally think about ALL the times and do nothing about them...then think we can go to sleep and it goes away. It doesn't...because the subconcsious brain is still thinking about it...it is always. there.
Then what happens is these ALL accumulate, time after time, day after day, we "think" when we shut our eyes it does away, will get better OR worse yet, take some type of pill to "feel" better when in all reality YOU are doing nothing to address the cause.
Here is the quandry that society has fallen into, by great marketing by Big Pharma...and the neat butterfly that lands on your backside...you don't feel right, THERE HAS TO BE A PILL or POTION FOR IT....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Stop that madness, because you are acutally masking the cause, doing nothing to address the REASON your life is being less lived that it's potential.
So my question to you is two fold...we are aware that you cannot wake up FEELING great because you slept "right"..why would you think just the opposite, because it is not bad luck that you "slept" in that position...bad bed? and when your health is not right why do you add a drug? Because I cannot understand that?
What I would like you to do...is sit down and evaluate where you want to BE in 5 years from now in your health, contact one of THE BOYZ...Dr. Koca, Francoeur and Price and let us know so WE can BE a part of your change...WE LOVE GOOD NEWS and VISION!!
And cease thinking that because you "slept wrong" you woke up unhealthy, because remember you don't "sleep right" and wake up feeling great...although you can wake up feeling great, but that is other factors involved!!!
And realize that today YOU have a choice in your health and families life, and enjoying the benefits of the Chiropractic Lifestyle can be HUGE in assisting you...WE relish that opportuntity!!
BE YOU...so much easier!!

Happiness
Happiness...what creates happiness? Is it getting better at something
or is it being less of something? Neither because you are always
DOing...it's the journey that brings you happiness, not the destination.
So many people, including myself up until a few years ago, are so focused on that end-point, the destination, that will provide the with happiness, that they lose the joy along the way...the DO of who they are working to BE or the HAVE.
So as I share with you today, and you can start DOing today, start your journey and along the path happiness surrounds you in all forms, look around, silence your mind and open your heart and you will see happiness all around you.
It took me years to figure this out, and the last few months I have deeply begun to focus on my journey, and as I go on this journey, I am documenting the process, journaling MY personal destination, there is joy in that process, but there is far greater joy in reviewing the process. Both allow me to ENJOY the moment, as I am doing and reflecting.
Each day you are on a journey, you are creating your legacy, you just don't know what it will bring, but what you can know is to start enjoying the journey, each day have soulful happiness in your journey, BE here right now, BE present with the moment and silence yourself to that moment. Keep silent in your mind, remove the noise, or better yet don't even allow the noise IN and the day, the journey will be pure happiness.
Have complete disregard to the toxins or "plastic" around you that is attempting, but YOU are stopping, RIGHT...to come into your mind, because YOU have committed today to enjoying the journey, knowing that your destination is YOUR legacy.
Know that right now, if you are asked where are you, your reply is HERE, and who are you...ME and the journey becomes YOUR.
BE, have fun...
