What is your level of consciousness? Are you vibrating at a level of peace or joy (high levels) or vibrating at fear or shame (lower levels)? Where you vibrate will determine what you attract in your life. The law of attraction says, "what you think about, comes about." If that is true, Wayne Dyer told us, then we 'better be careful what we think about!'

Climate change and chiropractic? A recent article in Lancet gave disturbing details to what we already know about climate change, but even more disturbing was that it failed to truly describe the toll on our children. Our children are directly impacted by climate change and are sicker and have more neurological issues than ever before, but so are their parents and caregivers! Chiropractic can help kids by enhancing their neuroplasticity and that of their parents! Article link: https://www.lancetcountdownus.org/2021-lancet-countdown-us-brief/

When our practice members come in with postural issues like high shoulders, high hips, or forward head tilts, are we telling them that their brain thinks this is normal? That when they wake up in the morning, their bodies shift into this posture because that has been patterned into them? How to interrupt this pattern? Chiropractic and functional neurological exercises!

What's your 'jam'? What is your "that something" that drives you, that gets you up in the morning? There are unlimited possibilities of "that something's" out there. There is something greater out there, waiting for all of us, that will hook you and keep you passionate and excited. BJ Palmer says, "Find that something!"

Chiropractic is founded on tone, as DD Palmer said back in 1910. The nerve system can be likened to a musical instrument. Is it in tune? If not, then it can be tuned up! You can pull out the Fender guitar tuning app and make sure each string is the right tune, otherwise the songs don't sound right. That's what we chiropractors do...tune up our patient's nerve systems so that they are at the ideal frequency for improved health.

Be disruptive! Break a pattern. Interrupt your normal day-to-day. Chiropractic was born out of disruption. DD Palmer had a disruptive thought to deliver the first adjustment! But then he wanted to keep chiropractic a secret...but BJ Palmer made chiropractic a worldwide disruptive factor! Be disruptive and tell the world about chiropractic!

There's always an endless amount of questions from students about starting a practice, and Dr Rubin answers some very astute ones that relate to building a disruptive pediatric practice!

To disrupt is to be "innovative and groud-breaking." The path has been laid out for us by disruptive chiropractors like Dr. Larry Webster and Dr. Jeanne Ohm. They boldly led us to think not just outside the box, but to think as if there is no box at all! It is time for us to take their call to action and become disruptive pediatric chiropractors!

What are you doing that is different? Are you connecting to what BJ Palmer called the "sacred trust?" This 'trust' is not determined by what your office looks like or your paperwork or your EHR. It is determined by you, answering this unspoken question from the parent who brought their kid in: will you take care of my kids like they are your own? Will they sense that from you and your staff?

Pre-Covid, approximately 12% of kids ages 4-17 were labeled as either depressed or had anxiety. Now those numbers in kids ages 4-17 have doubled, to 20% with anxiety and 25% with depression!. What is the missing link? How many of those kids are getting adjusted regularly? In pediatric chiropractic offices, we see that kids who are adjusted over the long term are overall healthier and less susceptible to illnesses and disorders!
