Congratulations to Brad who correctly guessed the number of Robins eggs.  There were 152!

Allergy Help is Here!
Have you been experiencing sneezing, or running nose and itchy eyes? 
Well don’t be surprised; spring allergy season is to blame. 
Unfortunately most anti-histamines and decongestants are very drying. 
Although drying out the sinuses and mucus membranes of the nose is helpful it
is harsh on your respiratory system and can lead to sinus infections,
bronchitis and elevated blood pressure.

It is time to talk with your chiropractor about how to desensitize your body to the common airborne allergies.  Desensitization is a process of ingesting very dilute quantities of the most common airborne allergens in the this region.  These allergens include common grasses, trees, weeds and molds. In very dilute quantities the body mounts a very mild, often unperceivable, immune reaction.  Once the body is desensitized it does not react violently to large quantities of pollens that blow through the air in spring and summer.  This allows you to be exposed to pollen without experiencing a running nose, scratchy watery eyes or congested sinuses. 

The product line we carry at Arapahoe Chiropractic and Acupuncture Center is Progena Allergena.  Don’t wait until you are miserable this Summer with allergy symptoms. Call our office today for more information on how acupuncture and natural supplements can prevent allergy symptoms. 

Mention this and receive 15% off any allergy related supplements.

Flourishing

Chiropractic Care and the Possibility of Flourishing

Health issues often interfere with the ability to participate fully in life. For example, ongoing lower back pain can make a person irritable and anxious. Lower back pain reduces a person's activities, wastes valuable metabolic resources, and saps energy. The affected person's emotional range becomes restricted as she is continually compelled to be aware of her body's limitations.

Chiropractic care may provide substantial benefit in the case of lower back pain and many other physical ailments. Gentle chiropractic care helps reduce pain by restoring mobility and reducing inflammation of affected muscles, ligaments, and tendons. As the person's pain resolves her interest in daily activities begins to grow. Reducing pain is associated with increasing involvement in life. As good health is restored, the person's ability to thrive and flourish is restored as well.

How do you determine whether your life is going well? Whether you're happy and fulfilled vs. merely going through the paces? Whether you're growing and developing as a person vs. merely expressing more of the same old, same old? In short, when the alarm goes off in the morning does the prospect of a new day cause you to be filled with excited anticipation and a sense of being actively engaged? Or do you wish you could bury yourself beneath the blankets and put off your daily routine for as long as possible?

"Flourishing" is a term long-used by philosophers to describe a state of ongoing positive engagement with life.1,2,3 When a person is flourishing she is not only interested and participating, but also widening and expanding her range and her scope. Most of us are familiar with the concept of flourishing as it relates to our plants and gardens. A flourishing tree sports many new branches, many new twigs, and many shiny new leaves. The bark of a flourishing tree has deeper and richer shades of brown. The greens of such a tree's leaves are moister and wetter, reflecting the aqua tones of the rivers, streams, and sky. All the flourishing tree's semi-moving parts are joyously turned toward the sun.

A flourishing human being expresses many similar phenomena. When describing the characteristics of well-balanced individuals, psychologists and sociologists have historically used the term "happiness". But "being happy" seems a fairly passive state of affairs. It's good to be happy, certainly, but what's being referred to is more of an emotional, subjective state of being. You're happy in response to a circumstance or series of events. In contrast, when you're flourishing you're actively taking part. You are the initiator rather than the responder. You're in the driver's seat. You get to say how things are going to go.

How do you achieve a state of flourishing? As always, it's the journey, not the destination, that provides the biggest payoff - in this case, a joyous, fulfilling life. Flourishing as such is not an endpoint - it's a moving target. We need to be proactive to replenish, reinvigorate, and revivify our continuing cycle of 24-hour allotments. We want to live, rather than merely exist. Living requires imagination, invention, interest, and action. Flourishing is an outcome of playing full out, of active participation in life.
