Everyone has one… a shadow that is! The darker more hidden side of oneself which is not yet conscious, that we try our best to hide and not show to others in fear of not being liked or accepted. We do our very best to push it down and hold it at bay as it exposes our vulnerabilities and imperfections. Eventually, over time, for better or for worse, it raises itself and seeps out into our longer-term relationships. Dr Carl Jung, wisely said” if we don’t embrace our shadow, our shadow embraces us”. The more we can recognize and take ownership of our shadow parts…the healthier and less defensive our relationships both with ourselves and others become.

For someone with hearing loss, social situations are challenging. Help improve communication with them by following these simple tips:
• Gain their attention before you begin talking.
• Speak naturally & don’t shout. Speak distinctly, at a normal rate, using pauses to give the person time to process speech.
• Keep your hands away from your face while talking.
• Avoid sudden changes of topic. And if the subject is changed, tell them what you are talking about now.
• Seat them where they can see as many faces as possible.
• Check in. If you think your listener may not be following, convey the information again in shorter, clearer sentences.

“Runner’s knee” is commonly used to describe two types of injuries of the knee, iliotibial band syndrome and patellofemoral pain syndrome. Both fall into the category of overuse or repetitive strain type injuries. They can occur in isolation or in combination, but both have been shown to be related to poor running mechanics and improper training volumes. What’s the solution? First step is a proper diagnosis by your healthcare practitioner. This should be followed by strength and mobility exercises to improve biomechanics, adjustment of training volumes as needed, and possibly gait analysis and footwear adjustments if it is deemed necessary.

Why is chiropractic care so important during pregnancy? At its most basic premise, chiropractic will help you and your nervous system adapt during this major shift. It will help you deal with all the structural, hormonal and emotional stressors. Structurally, chiropractic will help keep your joints moving appropriately so you can make room for your growing baby. When the pelvis and low back vertebrae are moving appropriately, your nerves can freely flow to all your muscles and organs, which may result in less pain and improved movement. Other benefits seen during chiropractic during pregnancy may include headache relief, decrease in low back pain and overall stress reduction.
