Preparation….Anticipation

lifegive — Sun, 25 Apr 2010 07:37:04 +0000

Am preparing for a trip to the midwest to visit friends and family. I plan to attend my college dance company’s spring concert. I’m looking forward to that.
Modern dance instructor is mellowing a little – and I’m now wearing ear plugs to dim the noise. She says we’re all finally dancing now (she means the kids, of course). Only one more regular class at Unity for me. I like the piece I’m in – I just hope I can remember it with a 2 week break and then just a few rehearsals before the performance! Be Well – Dr. Carol

Frustration

lifegive — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 18:18:19 +0000

As much as I’m enjoying my modern dance class at the U of O, it’s annoying that the instructor yells so much at the “kids”. Are they still using shame-based learning systems? I don’t think my instructors yelled that much in my college dance classes. Of course it was a small liberal arts college and not a big university. I’m not sure it’s an environment I can continue to be in.
On another note, I’m intrigued observing the structure of the young women. Clearly many of them have upper cervical issues. Their brains cannot fully communicate with their bodies (and yelling doesn’t help!)

So much happening

Many things are on my plate these days. I’m still seeing current patients and continuing to spend time with elderly friends. I’ve joined a modern dance company and am investigating a new career opportunity. I know everything will fall into place just the way it’s supposed to. I continue to work on my own health because without it I cannot pursue my dreams. Be Well – Dr. Carol

Still Dancing…

My process continues. Sometimes dancing with people 25-30 years younger than me is frustrating. Not because I can’t do what everyone else is doing, but because I just don’t always want to move at the same pace or in the same way as I did that many years ago. Emotionally I’m different. That’s good. But it creates a whole new dimension to how I move in my body. the process continues………Be Well – Keep Moving … Dr. Carol

A New Year; A New Direction

My juice fast went well, and I’m being more cautious about what I put into my body. I need a clearer mind to help this year go well.

I’ve started dancing again. In many ways it feels like I never left it, yet my body is very different than when I was dancing in my 20′s. I’ve been a vegan/vegetarian for over 20 years – I’m not subluxated – so my brain and body can communicate better. Overall I would say the same movement takes less effort. I wanted to start dancing again to experience what it felt like to move with a body that was functioning more like it was intended. Be Well – Move Freely … Dr. Carol

A Time for Renewal

At this time of year I like to take a break from all the commotion and design my own retreat to regroup and prepare myself for a new year. This year it will be in the form of a juice fast and meditative walks. Be Well – Dr. Carol

We are all seeking our own truth

“We all sit around in a circle and suppose, while the truth sits in the middle and knows.” Robert Frost

I often feel that upper cervical work is the truth in the middle. So many people spend their time sitting in that circle, never really getting the answer/solution to their problem, etc.

Be Well,

Is your DNA torqued?

lifegive — Sat, 14 Mar 2009 06:36:03 +0000

A great book by James Oschman, PhD – Energy Medicine: The Scientific Basis. Supports upper cervical health care. Neck out = body distorts (twists, etc) = torques your DNA. This is why it’s so crucial to “get your head on straight”! The brain needs to communicate effectively with every cell in the body so we can function optimally.

Be Well, Dr. Carol
