I have some time before I am off on my commute to Boise for work and school and wondering how best to spend it. Homework? Nah.  Making Raw food wraps? Nah, already have other wraps in fridge. Oh I know! How's about this here blog? Why, yes indeed. This is a brilliant idea.


Within the past month I began chiropractic treatment. Stumbled upon a wonderful wellness minded chiro who is part of the Maximized Living movement, AND they support raw food for maximum nutrition, so up my alley, aye? My Doc's name is Jake Erickson and before he begins treatment he takes an x-ray of your spine, then discusses with you what he discovered. http://www.maximizedlivingdrerickson.com 


Being an Iyengar-style yoga instructor and a warrior for wellness anyway I was uber-curious as to what story my x-ray would tell. What a surprise! The car wreck in 2005 did leave a visible shift in my spine and my neck is straight, que horror! Yes, of course, treatment begins.  


Now just barely a month into this treatment I am discovering interesting detoxing going on. For example, my body is releasing the car accident. I had a huge bruise show up on the inside of my left knee and although not painful weird how it got there, it puzzled me for awhile. The only other time I had a similar bruise was from my car wreck. My right knee is wonky due to realignment and body memory releasing. Ca-razy. It wasn't until yesterday that I connected my car wreck with my wonky body, wow! Huge awareness this is and fortunately I can tap into various sources and work more deeply with releasing this energy from my experience. yippee!


Oh and as far as my neck goes, apparently I have not been doing my headstands in the correct spot which would support the natural curve of our necks. More on this later. 


So the story continues. I recognize that the good Dr. Jake is helping me live a quality life longer than if I had not met him, Thank you Dr. Jake. I also acknowledge that regardless of where we are on our paths, no matter how much spiritual training, body training one has, we can be open to more joy, more love, more peace, and more ENTHUSIASM. I am grateful that I remain teachable and can pay attention to spirit's voice in my life. Woop woop, ah-dee ah -dee woop! 


Have a blessed day!
