25.01.2022 ‘To show up bravely and boldly as one’s truest self, even if it doesn’t match the world’s expectations - that’s what I want for my child and for yours too. ‘ Rachel Macy Stafford Tom dressed himself today, and chose to wear his pants backwards because - pockets! #love

24.01.2022 Everyday miracles bring deep joy Todays @dreamy_moons affirmation card is one of my favourites (its also the first time Ive pulled this card ). The more I practice gratefulness, the more everyday miracles I see. #everydaymiracles #joy #grateful #chiropractic #gentlechiropractic #positivity #heartbasedbusiness #energyhealing

24.01.2022 What does Chiropractic mean to me? I know chiropractic is a tool to allow the body to heal and express health. Chiropractic is more than a mechanism of popping and cracking joints to alleviate pain. The way I practice is more than that, I use gentle touch to free your body of limitations, enabling you to unwind, centre, heal. My hands, my intelligence and my intuition serve to honour your bodys natural process of healing. #gentlechiropractic #chiropractic #heal #craniosacral #health #innateintelligence #unwind #nervoussystem #authenticity #emergingradiance #connection

22.01.2022 As 2020 races to the finish, I’m taking a few days out of practice to learn and to enjoy life I’m away Thursday 29/10- Sunday 1/11 for a craniosacral therapy workshop I’m looking forward to integrating this into my practice.... Then a little vacay for me from Thursday 12/11 - Tuesday 17/11 I am happy to change a few hours around to be flexible with appointments during the next few weeks #happydays #craniosacraltherapy #vacay #learn #livelife #gentlechiropractic #oneblessedlife

21.01.2022 It was hard knowing what to post after sharing the black square. This year has been something else. Bushfires, pandemic, isolation, and for many a complete disconnection from humanity. The constant chaos and change has us scrambling for direction toward another new normal. And nobody has the answers for us, because this is all unknown. Its always been unknown. But your nervous system wasnt so shocked 6 months ago. Years ago I read The Big Idea poem, and I loved the idea ...that if we can help one person feel better through kindness and caring for their nervous system, then that would flow onto someone they see, and so on to reach all. Caring for our nervous system, learning how to connect, calm and heal matters. I know its not the only thing that will change the world, but its a great way to start. #kindnessmatters #nervoussystemhealth #polyvagaltheory #connection #community #chiropractor #authentic #gentlechiropractic #rainbow #thebigidea #happypotter #sunshine #winter #kind #intotheunknown See more

21.01.2022 Flowing, not forcing Gentle chiropractic care and craniosacral therapy work directly with your nervous system and it’s ability to adapt to stress. Regular care helps you become aware of what stimulates and stresses your nervous system, and what soothes and settles your nervous system. ... When our nervous system is soothed and settled, we bring more ease into our life #gentlechiropractic #chiropractic #craniosacraltherapy #cranialcare #vagusnerve #polyvagaltheory #nervoussystemregulation

21.01.2022 This morning we picked roses for Audrey’s teacher. We were blessed again by a ladybug Love, protection & good fortune #thelittlethings #joy #spring #mygirl #gentlechiropractic

20.01.2022 One of my top 5 values for 2020 is Education Ive always loved to read and to learn. I never seem to read one book at a time, preferring to go with my energy and feelings on the day Inspired by @thequirkycupcollective and @integralhealththerapies heres my current reading list. Included is my iPad for the Kindle books Im reading and Audible book Im listening to while I drive or cook ... Audible - Why Wont You Apologize by Harriet Lerner Kindle - Trauma Essentials by Babette Rothschild, and Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng What are you reading? #read #listen #education #values #chiropractic #gentlechiropractic #alwayslearning #togetherwegrow #alwayslearningsomethingnew #connection #love #radiance #authentic

20.01.2022 I love watching little people grow and explore. I love helping people have ease in their body. Sometimes when mum lies down it can be confronting for babies and children, even when this has been normal for a long time. Its ok. We can sing songs, play with the magic rainbow, and help give checkers I allow longer appointments for families to find our way through. Together we can help mums (dads, grandmas...) get the care they need ... #gentlechiropractic #chiropractic #mumlife #welcome #grateful #love #authentic #kids #homepractice #connection #handsonlearning #youshouldseewhatmykidsdo

Aldinga people Ill see you on Monday 20/7 ... #schoolholidaysjuly2020 #chiropractic #gentlechiropractic #connection #love #family #together #timetoplay #rejuvenate #sandyfeet

16.01.2022 I have the power to create the space to love to be radiant to be authentic for education ... for connection for resilience This is what I am creating space for this coming month. A conscious effort to change things in my life to focus on what matters. What will you create the space for? #createthespace #emergingradiance #choosinghealth #gentlechiropractic

16.01.2022 I love it so much when coming to see me for a ‘checker’ becomes part of a family’s life One of the best parts of adjusting babies is seeing them grow into healthy, happy, and strong children I’ve had the honour I’d knowing this little guy since he was in his mumma’s womb #chiropractic #gentlechiropractic #paediatricchiropractic #healthy #happy #connection #community #family #iloveoxfordcommas

16.01.2022 Education is one of my top 5 values for 2020. I’ve always loved learning, and usually have 5 or 6 books on the go. Today I’m excited to start formal training in Craniosacral Therapy. Craniosacral therapy is a treatment that can support your body’s natural ability to heal itself by listening to the vital forces that move, create, form, maintain and restore health within it. Right up my alley as a gentle chiropractor ... When we experience trauma, or something our brains perceive as life threatening, we are given three choices: fight, flight or freeze. In order to prepare ourselves for any of these options our bodies flood with energy (adrenaline). Once the threat has passed, we need time to discharge this energy. Trauma survivors are unable to properly rid themselves of this energy which can dysregulate their nervous system. When your nervous system is dysregulated, it’s hard to cope with the ups and downs of daily life, let alone any other traumatic events. CST uses gentle bodywork to help people to understand and explore the link between physical, bodily sensations, past traumatic events and related emotions. As a chiropractor I love helping people regulate their nervous system and lead happier, healthier lives. I look forward to integrating CST into my practice. #education #gentlechiropractic #ilovelearning #craniosacraltherapy #traumarecovery #happierhealthieryou #healing #chiropractic #values

15.01.2022 Heal your gut with full spectrum sunlight

15.01.2022 "Fight or flight" games After a stressful event, such as going to the dentist or the doctor, we can help our little ones discharge the energy that mobilised ...inside of them during the appointment. _ WHY DOES SURVIVAL ENERGY GET MOBILISED? _ When a doctor (although well intentioned) is coming at the child with tools in hand to do things on his body (even though they're helpful and could even save his life!), the child's body will perceive this as an invasion. His nervous system will automatically go into a survival response, in order to protect him. And to protect him from harm, his nervous system will try to: - fight: push away, yell, hit, ... - or flee: run away, hide, ... That's the "fight or flight" response. _ WHEN THE ENERGY IS NOT RELEASED _ Now, of course the child knows that he should not (or is prevented from) hitting the doctors and running away. But this fight or flight energy is getting mobilised in his body anyway! And it will keep mobilising until it completes its cycle of protection. Because yes, your child's body is very well made (so is yours ;-) ), and is ALWAYS trying to protect him (through the fight or flight responses). But it doesn't differentiate: even though the dentist or doctors appointment is finished, his frightened system, if not given the opportunity to complete its protection, will keep trying to protect him, it will keep mobilising this un-processed energy. A child with unprocessed fight or flight energy will look: - agitated (at all times, or in situations that remind him of the initial trauma, such as when brushing teeth, or washing hair), - on guard, - easily startled, - anxious, - angry or aggressive - hyper-active, going from thing to the next, - having difficulties focusing on a task, - difficulties sleeping and eating well, etc. [Same symptoms for us adults, by the way. I'm sure many of us relate to this description...] _ HOW CAN WE HELP OUR CHILDREN? _ By helping their body complete its defence. We can do this playfully, while having fun together. Examples of games that help completing a FIGHT response: - playing "pushing away": inviting the child to push on your hands (and comment on how strong his body is). - playing setting boundaries: you walk towards the child (slowly!) and when he says "stop", you immediately stop. Examples of games that help completing a FLIGHT response: - running towards a safe place: play running towards daddy, or play "escaping from the doctor's office" (materialised by the couch for instance), to a safe place (the bed for instance, or your arms). - play jumping off the doctor's chair: at home, pretend to be the doctor or dentist and invite your child to "jump off" the chair (and comment on how fast he's running away!) Role reversal -> let your child be the doctor/dentist, while you pretend to be the patient (and pretend that you're a bit scared, in a funny way ;-) ) Stay open to your child's own invitations to play in this way! After her last appointment at the dentist, my daughter immediately initiated a game to complete her flight response: "Let's run, Mama!" "Okay, let's run away from the dentist together!"

13.01.2022 We are all just waiting for someone to noticenotice our pain, notice our scars, notice our fear, notice our joy, notice our triumphs, notice our courage. And ...the one who notices is a rare & beautiful gift. Rachel Macy Stafford Today marks the 14th birthday of the girl who inspired the words above words that have allowed people described as too distracted too sensitive too emotional too slow to look down at themselves and say, Wait. Maybe theres NOT something wrong with me. Maybe I am just what this world needs. Avery is a Noticer, and I believe her gift is cultivated by the way she checks in with her heart before she makes decisions, big and small. When she is tired, she rests. When she is sad, she writes, sings, or talks about it. When she sees something interesting, she stops to look at it. When she feels inclined to help, she offers. This child does not live by the clock, by societal standards, or by the expectations of others; she lives by heart. Avery has always been acutely aware of the needs, emotions, struggles, and triumphs of those around her. I think it is because she is so in tune with her own heart that shes able to notice and respond compassionately to the pain of others. As I do multiple times a day, I closed my eyes this morning and gave thanks for this remarkable human being. God knew I needed her and perhaps that the world did too. Every year, on August 12, I hear from people who have been able to see themselves in a whole new way thanks to Avery. One unforgettable message was from a sixty-year-old reader of my blog. She wrote: When I was six, my dad took me to the circus, and I kept turning around. My dad scolded me and told me I needed to watch the show. I rather watch the people behind me. All my life I thought there was something wrong with me. Now I know there is not. I am a Noticer. Perhaps August 12th should become National Noticing Day. I bet we all will encounter someone today just waiting to be noticed. Lets do it. Thank you, Avery, for reminding us to stop and feel our beating hearts every chance we get. Real living happens when we pause to notice and respond with love. Rachel Macy Stafford 2020 Averys noticing gift makes for beautiful music.

09.01.2022 We can get busy doing many things. We can forget to listen to our body, to who we are, to who we want to be. We switch onto autopilot and ride through the turbulence hoping that one day it will end. As a human first and a mum second (chiropractor is in there too ) I get busy in the stuff too. Im still learning each day to take care of my nervous system first. To honour my body with good care - sleep, nourishing food, regular chiropractic care, exercise, sunshine, creat...e, play (the stuff I love to do) and connect with others. Im being more me, and that means I can help you be more you #togetherwecan #beingmoreme #igetheadaches #chiropractic #gentlechiropractic #polyvagal #calmyournerves #connection #love #authentic #rainbow #imperfectlyperfect #parasympatheticnervoussystem #heartbasedbusiness See more

08.01.2022 Hold The Vision As a chiro grad I thought I had my future mapped out - see lots of people in short appointments, set up a multi-disciplinary clinic named Maven House, and help people feel and function better. Over the years, my life has changed and my vision and practice have transformed. ... I really love helping people feel and function better, it brings me so much joy. I love longer appointments in my home clinic, and I love the community of practitioners I know and refer to - massage therapists, yoga teachers, acupuncturists, TCM, osteopaths, podiatrists, manual chiropractors, nutritionists, naturopaths, dentists, IBCLC, speech pathologists... Im grateful for the original vision to pursue this incredible career Yesterday I spent the day creating the month ahead with a group of amazing women. Our theme for the day was Hold The Vision, thank you @project_work_life for your vision #holdthevision #goforit #evolve #chiropractic #gentlechiropractic #grateful #emergingradiance #connection #authentic #love #community

07.01.2022 One of the most amazing parts about what I do is helping babies overcome health issues and grow into healthy, happy and resilient children. Our nervous system controls everything, so we often see kids function better after a gentle adjustment. Gentle chiropractic care is great for feeding issues, reflux, plagiocephaly, earache, constipation, breathing issues, childhood headache/migraine, sensory issues, and much more. #gentlechiropractic #chiropractic #children #makingmemories #chirokids #getadjusted #joy #love #bettertogether #paediatricchiropractic #happy #chiropracticlifestyle #aldinga #chandlershill #adelaidechiro
