25.01.2022 This has been a hard week for many people. How many? In my sphere at @risechiropracticau 9 to be exact. 9 people needed a big emotional release.... A good solid ugly cry. 9 people overwhelmed with their relationships, pain or just how the world is at the moment. 9 people who trust me enough to just talk and let loose. It really is an honour that I can share that with them. Have you had an ugly cry this week?

23.01.2022 #winstagram is asleep in the car and my hit rate at transferring has taken a nose dive recently... So I decided to sit (not using the proper sitting protocol) and plan an epic post spatial distancing event that will not only bring our community closer but will raise it up. Im actually super excited about this so stay tuned! *Yes I took a picture of this. I did it for the gram! #sunshinecoastbusiness #risechiropractic #loveyourlocalsc #buderim #maroochydore #mooloolaba #sunshinecoast #whatsonsunshinecoast

23.01.2022 Just sorting out the final structural touches to our SC business awards presentation tomorrow. PS. who ever told you a shorter presentation is easier is lying to you.

22.01.2022 ----------- Present.... One of the biggest lessons both @carolinemaymary and myself are relearning this pregnancy is being present. We both have been a touch anxious because of the speediness and earliness that Winston came earth side. Side note that speediness and earliness hasn't changed with him... We have been caught in this cycle of "worrying" of things that haven't happened yet which interferes with what's happening now. Enjoying our final time as just the 3 of us / Embracing how different this pregnancy has been / Supporting other things more in the moment... Just to name a few big ones. How many time have you been caught up in the future and ignored the present?

21.01.2022 Look what they did on the weekend!

20.01.2022 This is a 2020 post and this is a picture of the bear and I at the beach. ------------------ 2020 has been a year hasn't it? But like every year it's what you make of it.... For us, it has been a big year and not because of the obvious (I'm purposely not saying it because I'm sure you are all sick of the same disclaimer that the algorithm puts on a post with that word in it) This years lessons and themes were all focused on planning and community. Planning was a big one. Like many of you know effective time management with owning your own business is crucial and when you are in a service based industry where the service itself takes up most of that time it's even more important to lock that down. On top of all that we also had to factor in a Brissy locum for the past year when full time daycare wasn't an option. I'm glad to say those 10 minute spare time handoffs and late night finishes I don't miss. The realisation: we have become weapons at this and 2021 is in danger of a de Silva takeover. Community. Also big, also important. Let me just say we absolutely love our community and our people. They simply rock and I love them to bits. From the beginning @risechiropracticau purpose hinged on community. Like all things (especially how I operate) there has been alot of tinkering, fails and wins but I can solidly say that I think we found our 'sauce' and it's just starting to show. If we simmer it for a touch more I think people will be in for a treat. Now resolutions in my opinion are shit and you need to stop doing them. I am a fan of intentions but only for 12 weeks. What are your intentions for the first 3 months this year?

19.01.2022 Dr. Derek quickly has a chat about the different types of stressors that can impact your health. What type do you feel you need the most support with? C D... #risechiropractic #stress #sunshinecoast #sunnycoast #health #chiropractic

19.01.2022 It may look like I'm laying down on the job but I'm really hard at work. Working hard on resting during my scheduled rest time. Are you scheduling most things you do? Reading time? Nap time? Work time? Active time? Poop time? (Maybe not poop time) When you do, you will find that you will get more done, spend less time thinking about what's next, and not miss out on the things that "fall by the wayside"... Do you have your stuff planned out?

18.01.2022 Christmas decorating!

17.01.2022 S T R E S S This month we are going to chat about all things stress and how it effects you! But before we dive in lets talk about how not all stress is bad for... you. Distress vs eustress. Essentially, eustress is positive stress and distress is negative stress. Thats correct!! Not ALL stress can be bad for you Here are some key differences between the two. EUSTRESS - Motivates us - Short term - Feels exciting - Perceived within our coping abilities - Improves performance DISTRESS - Causes anxiety or concern - Short or long term - Feels unpleasant - Perceived outside of our coping abilities - Decreases performance It can be tricky to categorise situations and events into objective and definite lists of EUSTRESS and DISTRESS, because different people have different reactions to certain situations. Meaning - our PERCEPTION defines whether a situation is a good type of stress or a bad type of stress. Also, not all causes of eustress or distress are external. Internal responses, habitual behaviours, feelings, thoughts and beliefs can also create eustress or distress! In conclusion - dont be hating on all kinds of stress. Some stress can be good for you! Just be mindful of which stressors youre allowing to have a negative effect and which stressors youre allowing to have a positive effect. Have a look in the mirror - what do you see? Is your life reflecting more DISTRESS or more EUSTRESS?

17.01.2022 Our first baby turned 3 today! Happy birthday @risechiropracticau papa loves you @carolinemaymary

17.01.2022 The past week has been hard. Completely uninspired and absolutely physically and emotionally drained. Today though I felt the shift.... It wasnt the lack of sleep from a teething toddler. It wasnt from the amount of caffeine that it took for me to be a person again. It was his laugh (not to be confused with HIS laugh, although hearing it again probably would have the same effect) His laugh simply reminded me on the joys of life. Reminded me that I have a shit load of people to help and a community to support. Also this moment also helped. #fatherhood #sunshinecoastbusiness #fatherandson #sunshinecoast #buderim #workfromhome

17.01.2022 Happy Monday! Today we talk about some cool tests you can do to see how your brain works and how your spine relates to it. C D

16.01.2022 We are hosting an awesome workshop next Wednesday! I would love to see you there :)

15.01.2022 Wednesdays are quite different post the current COVID restrictions. We as a family no longer head down and stay overnight in Brisbane with @carolinemaymary which means early 4.30 starts. No more running around in the parks.... We temporarily closed our Wednesday shifts at @risechiropracticau These are good things. Its good that Winston and I have become alot closer. Its good because I get more of these head massages and we get to use Rise for other purposes. Its good that we have had the time to get some stuff done that we have been putting off. Its been good that we have been able to support our friends and local businesses in the area. Its been good that I have been able to commit more to my personal and professional development (thanks @thechillybow @drshawndill @drlaceybook ) Heres to good head massages #fatherhood #sunshinecoast #risechiropractic #maroochydore #mooloolaba #sunshinecoastbusiness #newdadstartup #bdc

13.01.2022 On this Monday's video we talk all about sleep and how to get a good nights worth. We cover what you sleep on and how to do your day.

13.01.2022 This is a shit post. I was seeing a client that I really enjoy seeing the other day. We have chats about anything and everything, ranging weird to the wonderful in our lives. She asked me the typical, every day question "how are you doing?" I answered I'm great! (which I am) ... This was partially a lie because in reality I'm also 'doing' other things. Why do we feel the need to do this? Fib about how we are? If you are doing shit then let people know and if someone says they are doing shit then listen. You don't need to fix someone's shit and you shouldn't expect someone to fix your shit for you (don't be a victim of your circumstances). Shit. I think this year is a good reminder for us to be more open about our feelings and thoughts. Tell people how you are actually doing and tell people the weird shit you like (you'd be surprised what shit they like) Here’s how I’m actually feeling: I feel like: I need a me at home and a me at work Shit because I havent accomplished nearly what I wanted to this year Slightly overwhelmed by all the extra things this time of year brings that take away time from my family and to provide an income for my family Angry that I can't introduce Winston in person to my family for the first time for god knows how long Deeply tired Satisfied with the amazing work I do with people and the change that it brings about in their life Covered in a love blanket by @carolinemaymary and Winston Great about how we are living and where we're going These are all great things to feel because things don't last forever, they last for how ever long you decide to let them simmer for. Be kind, we all have shit.

08.01.2022 Babes are the truest form of expression. Doing what they want when they want and not because of what others think. Showing true health by the expression of their physiology. The purest expression of love to everyone.... This is why this kid is the best and why I love checking kids like him to keep that expression firing on all cylinders. Things work better with no interference.

03.01.2022 Overwhelm. This has been a feeling that Ive been feeling over the past few days. A tonne of things to do in practice to help it grow. A tonne of things to do at home to keep things flowing freely. A tonne of things on my mind to consider and act upon. All while testing the waters on a new productivity system that Im tweaking to suit my needs. Luckily I have people in my life to keep me on track. Thanks @fromtheashers / @thechickswhoclick from a previous coaching call n...ote saying what one thing will move it forward and @drshawndill in the @theblackdiamondclub posting a picture of a phone case with the saying "felt overwhelmed there for a second but then I remembered who the fck I am" on another overwhelm post. Just remember who the fck you are and keep on moving forward. #sunshinecoast #overwhelm #maroochydore #mooloolaba #gtd #productivity #productivitytips #visitsunshinecoast #bdc #beachlife
