Posture Transformation – The Posture of Spirit

July 7th, 2010

(See if you can pick out the "magic phrase" in the video that our new "Posture 2.0" coaching program is based on and put it in the comments below!  And let me know what you think about it…I'm curious.)

 

So many people make posture correction so complicated when it's really very simple.

All you have to do is be 100% at peace and constantly feeling the feeling of growth, renewal, and expansion!

Simple Right???

Yes, except for the fact that the many stresses of the modern world keeps you from ever feeling that feeling of bliss!

So what actually happens to your body when you perceive mental, physical, or chemical stress?  

Your body responds by jaw clenching, chin poking, shoulder shrugging, chest breathing, hip closing, and on and on.

When you do this, you create joints that are way out of balance and alignment.  And guess what signal this gives to your brain and central nervous system (CNS)?  MORE STRESS!!

And what happens when the CNS perceives stress?  The stress hormone, cortisol, is released that:

- Tears down muscle and turns it into fat (nice, huh)

-Undercuts your immune system (colds, flu, or allergies, anyone?)

-Demineralizes your bones (ever wonder why they say never to get more than 3 cortisone (synthetic highly concentrated cortisol) injections?  Because it eats away your bones!

-Signals your body to use SUGAR instead of FAT for fuel (that means the next size up on your jeans and more INSANE CRAVINGS!)

-Causes decreased amounts of sex hormones to be produced (anybody got any Viagra? or something for these hot flashes?????

-Theres' LOTS more, but that should be enough to get your attention!

I was just talking to a client this afternoon about how amazing it was that just by changing your posture so your joints and muscles are in their most perfectly aligned state, you can make HUGE metabolic changes in your body so you start burning more fat, having less cravings, having better sex, and lots of other wonderful things that make life MORE FUN!

But my point in the video above is that

It ALL starts with your INTENTION.

Are you holding an intention of peace or an intention of stress?

Your body knows.  Just look in the mirror.

Remember, it's all just programs in your brain that are just waiting to be "released and rewired"  

It's your choice, you can reprogram your mind, remodel your posture, and completely change your life!

Anti-Gravity Posture Through Finger Spreading – How To Make Your Arms Float!

June 4th, 2010

I released this exercise about a year ago to the people who were in my first Myobalance Method home program trial group.
 
 
It's pretty amazing and all you need is a very light theraband (we use yellow).
 
 
In the video I refer to an exercise you have not yet seen but it doesn't take away from the power of the message.
 
Even if you don't have a band you'll still benefit with better posture and less pain if you take the "spreading" concept to heart.
 
Enjoy!
 
Dr. Steve
 
BTW…my apologies for being absent over the last few weeks.  A couple of family illnesses have diverted our attention recently.  (Rebecca, I, and the boys are all fine!)
 
But we're getting back on track and I've got the wheels in motion on new coaching program for people who want to get rid of the painful posture of aging and take "Organic" Posture Transformation and Functional fitness to the next level.
 
I'll also be offering solutions to some of the great comments we've been getting on the blog in an upcoming video, so stay tuned!

Goodbye Core Wellness, Hello Core Wellness INSTITUTE!

April 1st, 2010

The Only Constant Is CHANGE!

After 5 AWESOME years on Spring Street in downtown Jeffersonville, IN, Rebecca and I have decided it's time to move on and embrace the change we've been contemplating over the past year.

Now that we are moving away from our original intent of creating a "Curves-like" exercise circuit facility and are full speed ahead  creating multi-media home training and study courses, we are headed to the Nolan Centre at 131 E. Court Ave. in Jeffersonville just 3 blocks away!

The new space allows us to let go of some of the wide open wasted space and create much more functional studio space for creating new content and will serve as home base for our new online educational adventures with the upcoming CoreWellnessInstitute.com!

Join Rebecca and I in this bittersweet episode of Core Wellness TV as we say goodbye to Core Wellness on Spring Street and hello to Core Wellness Institute, LLC!

And in case you're wondering, YES, I will continue doing chiropractic rehabilitation sessions and nutritional medicine consults at the Institute!!

P.S.  If you're local and would like to leave a comment about any experiences or health breakthroughs you've had at the Spring Street location, please do!  I've been honored to be a partner in some miraculous transformations in this space and would love to hear your side of the story!

GardenCast! Easy Compost Bins And Organic Fertilizer

March 8th, 2010

It's time to get that garden going! 

Remember…the best way to ensure good, organic, nutrient dense food is to GROW YOUR OWN!

It starts with the soil, of course.  And composting is the best way to get started in your gardening adventures!

In this episode you'll see the simple compost bins I made with FREE materials!

Plus…we get to visit our friends at their farm as we thank their horses for their "contribution" to the garden this year. 

Even if you don't make your own garden, It's SO important to get connected to your growers and BUY LOCAL whenever possible.

Also…our boys and our neighbor got to come along to cure some of their "Nature Deficit Disorder"

Enjoy and LEAVE A COMMENT to let me know what your biggest question is about starting or maintaining a successful organic garden!
