Healing Without Medicine! That's What I'm Talking About!

 
 
Since having Hasting, I have really done a TON of research. I've came to realization that medicine isn't the cure to everything. Dr's are quick to prescribe medicine, instead of really focusing on thier patient and finding other healthier options.
My lifestyle since birthing Hasting has become more laid back, therefore creating a more postive natural living atmosphere for my family & I. I've met a GREAT support system of moms locally, whom we all share a TON of common interests in. We have a "natural-living, attachment parenting" page on FB, and are all very close knit. One day while searching over the page, there was conversation of pediatric chiropractor care. My first thoughts were, "That's insane, taking your CHILD to see a chiro". Like all, I was quick to judge and had done NO research..like most people are quick to do. So I looked in to it more.
Chiropractic care for children addresses children's health conditions associated with the nervous and musculoskeletal systems. It is gentle, noninvasive and drug free. Chiropractic adjustments treat, resolve and prevent a wide range of health problems

 
This was my cup of tea. Anything drug free to help my child is an AMEN, HECK YES! Chiro care can help to treat acute and chronic conditions as well!
Here is a list of common childhood conditions that families have seen great impact from chiropractic care that you may not have thought of as chiropractic issues. Chiropractors do not necessarily treat or cure these conditions, but they have been shown to help in profound ways by treating the children suffering from them and enhancing their general health.
  • ADHD & Autism Spectrum Disorders
  • Ear infections
  • Common Cold
  • Colic
  • Constipation
  • Growing pains
  • Plagiocephaly
  • Scoliosis
  • Bed wetting
  • Breastfeeding difficulties
  • Birthing Trauma
  • Sports injuries (like Little League Elbow)
 
Hasting and I went for the first time with my best friend Jess and her daughter. They reffered us to an awesome Dr here in Kernersville. I decided it was time to go after Jess' daughter had been seen and had been adjusted. She was having issues with an ear ache, and after seeing Dr. Meylor, her symptoms improved tremendously and she was back on track. I decided to take Hasting just to check on things with him, and to see if there was anything he could do to help with Hasting's consitpation and the fact that he is a SUPER high needs child. So off we went.
This is where we go. The best part is, I could walk there from my house if I needed to (and if I had to, I seriously would!)
 
This is Dr. Meylor. THE most AWESOME Chiropractor EVER. wanna know something else awesome? He doesn't believe in vaccinations!!!!!! HOLY WOW right?
The first time Hasting and I went to see Dr. Meylor it was great! I had some xrays done so we could see what was going on with my body. Hasting had a spine alignment and had some pressure released from his neck. He was excellent, and wasn't scared at all!
As for me...
My neck is shifted slightly to the right
My right hip bone sits higher than my left
My spine is slightly curved (which could have led to Scoliosis)
My pubic bone sits really low from birthing Hasting, and squishes my lady bits!
And my left leg is slightly longer than my right.
So. The awesome things is, I can expect improvement in ALL of these things in 12-15 adjustments. Ican't tell you how much better I have felt since we have started going. Hasting's attitude has improved tremendously, and he poops on the reg now :)
I also have extremely horrible sinus problems, AND I can't seem to kick the habit of smoking. Guess what? I'm about to begin acupuncture for that.
 
Dude, they seriously do it ALL. If you have never been, I HIGHLY reccomend it. You never know, you may have some issues going on that you didn't know about like me!
If you're local, check out Dr. Meylor, and tell him Lindsay sent you!!!

Setbacks Over Progress. 

Tonight I was going through my phone, looking through old notes I had left myself in my phone. I noticed one from December 31, 2017. It was before 2018 hit us, and 10 days before our world started to  turn completely upside down.  It was a list of all the good things and accomplishments of 2017.  “Became pregnant with our fourth child”.  Just like that.  I remembered something I’ve been doing a LOT of recently. I’ve caught myself if the good moments, reflecting, but not in a good way. I look at old photos, from before Sadler, or before his pregnancy took a high risk turn, and I just bask in those moments of happiness. I try so hard to remember the happiness i felt in those photos. And just like that, hello guilt.  Almost 5 months has passed, and while there is no routine of how grief plays out, you begin to realize patterns and ways of how you deal and cope with all things associated with your grief. But as the time goes on, you start to notice thi...

DIY ok to wake clock!

Recently, I added an "OK to wake" clock in my Amazon shopping cart. Hasting needs help determining when the time is appropriate for him to wake, and when it's appropriate for him to come out of his room. Some days it's normal hours, others, not so much. I need time to myself to start my day. I've been wanting to wake around 6am myself, have time to make (and enjoy) a HOT cup of coffee, meditate, complete some morning yoga, and talk to Jesus. BUT , with a kid thinking it's ok to take over my space at 6am, I haven't been able to even START that sort of routine.  A while back a friend had talked about a DIY "ok to wake" clock. Up until now, I had shoved the idea off, and wanted to just buy one because they seemed cooler, lit up, and played cool noises. But, I quickly discovered they're $30. So, I decided since I had all I needed to do the DIY clock, why not give it a whirl first, seeing as I love being thrifty and like saving money and all. So, ...

Strawberry Oat Flaxseed Muffins

I'm a sucker for muffins, and even better... So is my son. Which in my case is great.  I used to buy the lovely processed packages that we are all guilty of probably purchasing at least  once.. Right? But then, once upon a time, we decided that crap is SO bad for us. As much as I hate cooking, I've actually found that the more I do it, and the healthier it is, the more I like to do it.  So I started looking around for muffin recipes that I could basically just alter, and pump with natural ingredients to replace things like butter and sugar, and preservatives to be replaced with real fruit. May I also add, homegirl at pioneer woman has got it goin on (I love her recipes).  So here's what I came up with. ** You can use bananas instead of honey as a sweetener if you'd like, but since Hasting is having issues with bowel movements, I'm staying clear of bananas atm. Use 2 bananas if you use bananas ** 2.5C old fashioned oats  1C vanilla Greek yogurt 2 eggs  3 tsp...
