In this episode of the Schofield Chiropractic Training podcast, Dr. Fred Schofield rings the bell, a nostalgic nod to his boarding school days, to kick off a thought-provoking discussion. Dr. Fred reflects on how his boarding school teacher and coach made a profound impact on his life during a time of personal chaos. He shares that everyone faces storms in life, but it's how we adapt and find balance that matters most.

Dr. Fred dives into the concept of Functional Analysis, exploring the idea that "input equals output." He references the book The Tree of Knowledge: The Biological Roots of Human Understanding by Humberto R. Maturana and Francisco J. Varela, discussing the notion of autopoiesis and the importance of internal organization and coherence.

In this episode, Dr. Fred emphasizes the need to understand and maintain our physiological adaptation range. He explains the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, highlighting the significance of achieving an autonomic, balanced state. Whether you're too pumped up or too relaxed, finding that balance is key to optimal health.

Dr. Fred challenges listeners to make a paradigm shift from focusing on symptoms to understanding the underlying causes of dysfunction. He underscores the body's innate ability to heal itself when in alignment and encourages embracing a systems approach to life.
