Balance, for the most part, involves your ability to stay upright. It’s closely aligned with agility. One of the issues with balance and staying upright is that there are a lot of things working against us, with the main one being gravity! Then there are all the other things we slip on and trip over on a daily basis that try to knock us down. It can be a challenge at times. Proper balance involves multiples areas of your anatomy all working together. Your inner ear has circular canals filled with fluid that detects motion in any direction and sends signals to your brain telling it what is going on. Your brain sends signals to your musculoskeletal system to contract or relax specific muscles to keep you upright. Your eyes also send signals to your brain about how you are moving. All of this happens over and over in a fraction of a second and when everything is working just right, you’re upright and doing your thing. Pretty amazing, huh? So what can you do to maintain good balance? Dr. Schaffer will give you the general things to work on first because they fit right into the 6 Principles of his Vibrant Lifestyle Program!You can find Dr. Schaffer at: Website: https://www.drglenschaffer.comEssential Oils: https://www.doterra.com/US/en/site/drglenschafferFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/SanCarlosChiro/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SanCarlos_Chiro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Fjfzgxs4ST677GnYbCvSgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drglenchirohealth/ Contact Dr. Schaffer: gsspine@gmail.com

What would it mean to you to be healthy and vibrant into your 70's, 80's or 90's? What would it mean to you for your family to be healthy and vibrant? Did you know, for the most part, you're in control of your health and as a parent, the health and wellbeing of your family?Doc Here! I just want to share with you some projects I’m working on that will be rolled out in the very near future. I’m super excited to be completing the initial phase of my Vibrant Lifestyle Program. I’m currently working on two applications of this program: the first is a 90-Day program designed for small 10 people groups and the second is customized corporate programs. A third application will follow these two, which is an annual membership.Why am I so excited about this program and why am I doing this? Well, that’s a good question and let me explain. I’ve told this story before but it bares repeating. 12 years ago I’m sitting in a convention auditorium in Orlando, FL with about 500 of my chiropractic colleagues listening to a MD’s presentation. I know that sounds strange doesn’t it, a MD speaking with chiropractors. He was telling us that the majority of health conditions in our country are lifestyle related. He focused on the top 10, which he explained were almost all directly related to our poor lifestyle. The top 10 alone, back then, were costing our country $600B annual to Tx. He then wentthrough each and every medication that his profession was utilizing to treat these Top 10 conditions. He clearly demonstrated through a mountain of research that the majority of these medications were both ineffective and caused considerable harm in the form of side effects.

Today Dr. Schaffer is going to talk about our need for other people. Maybe that seems odd to you, but this fits into Principal #4 Proper Mental, Emotional and Spiritual Well-being. As Dr. Schaffer previously mentioned, he firmly believes we are designed by God to live in relationship with Him, but also in relationship with others. We need God and we need other people. Other people need us. We are designed to live in community. The development of how we go about being involved with those around us stated back when we were infants. This is compounded in the early development year 1-3. The foundation is laid here for interacting with the world around us. Social, emotional and personal development starts to take shape: making relationships, managing behavior and feelings and becoming more aware of self and confidence, yes, started in those early formative years. Countless books and college courses have be written on the “how to” of this topic.Genesis 2:18 (English Standard Version -ESV)18 Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for] him.”Acts 20:35 (English Standard Version -ESV)35 In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.You can find Dr. Schaffer at: Website: https://www.drglenschaffer.comEssential Oils: https://www.doterra.com/US/en/site/drglenschafferFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/SanCarlosChiro/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SanCarlos_Chiro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Fjfzgxs4ST677GnYbCvSgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drglenchirohealth/ Contact Dr. Schaffer: gsspine@gmail.com
It all starts with the core! Today Dr. Schaffer is going to talk about core strength. So far in the area of exercise, Principal #1, Dr. Schaffer has given you an overview of what proper exercise is. He has gotten you moving with general activity and how proper posture is necessary AT ALL TIMES especially while exercising. Today’s episode is another foundational lesion to any exercise program and that is our need for core strength. Dr. Schaffer will explain what this is in today’s show, but think of your core muscles as the glue that holds everything else together. #AllAboutTheCoreCore Exercise Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIODJ7Q4VJ4 You can find Dr. Schaffer at: Website: https://www.drglenschaffer.comEssential Oils: https://www.doterra.com/US/en/site/drglenschafferFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/SanCarlosChiro/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SanCarlos_Chiro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Fjfzgxs4ST677GnYbCvSgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drglenchirohealth/ Contact Dr. Schaffer: gsspine@gmail.com
Have you tried all the diet programs and nothing seems to help you have freedom in your diet while living a healthy life?In today’s episode, Dr. Schaffer is going to share with you something new he started doing in his diet that has given him freedom in his health….#Whole30. Doc here, I’m going to talk to you about another tool, The “Whole 30” diet by Melissa and Dallas Hartwig. They also wrote the bestselling book, “It Starts with FOOD”. Now if you listen to me very much or listened to my episode on Proper Nutrition, you know I’m not a big fan of dieting. So am I going to be hypocritical here and recommend a diet? Not really, and I’ll explain. Whole30 addresses (from the book), an unhealthy relationship with food (psychological, cravings), a disrupted digestive system, a sluggish metabolism and an overactive immune systems. This last one ties into several episodes ago when I spoke about inflammatory foods. Immune system can overreact by creating chronic systemic inflammation, which has been linked to a slew of health conditions, probably many that you are suffering with.

Do you have a difficult time falling asleep or staying asleep? There are certainly times when all of us have difficulty getting a good night’s sleep, either falling asleep or staying asleep. Approx 50 million people struggle with focus during the day due to poor sleep and roughly 150 million Americans struggle at least one night per week getting a good night’s rest. I’ve talked about our need for proper rest in episode 6, so I won’t get back into all of that today, but having proper sleep allows our body to heal and rejuvenate. Occasionally, we will all have a night or two that we don’t sleep well. Typically, these resolve themselves. But for some, getting a good night’s sleep is difficult most every night. Sleeping pills are not the answer, there are risks and the quality of sleep is poor. Are there some natural sleep aids that can help? I’ve found a few I think can help, without resorting to pharmaceuticals or medicines. John 15:5 (English Standard Version - ESV)5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

Host, Dr. Glen Schaffer’s topic today is on proper posture, something he feels is a foundational issue that we need to focus on whether we’re exercising, sitting at your desk at work, sleeping, traveling…really everything we do. If you’re exercising with poor posture, you may be helping one aspect of your health but causing harm to another area. Poor posture can also be a causative factor in lower back pain, middle back pain, “hunchback” syndrome or what he calls, becoming a carpet inspector, neck pain, headaches, and even a variety of internal conditions. As you can see, proper posture is very important today and for your long term health.Do you know what proper posture really looks like or how you can improve your posture?

We made it to my final principal of my Vibrant Lifestyle Program; Eliminating Toxins! You might be thinking, what are toxins? Well, the Nemours Foundation describes body toxins as, "A toxin is a chemical or poison that is known to have harmful effects on the body. Toxins can come from food or water, from chemicals used to grow or prepare food, and even from the air that we breathe. Our bodies process those toxins through organs like the liver and kidneys and eliminate them in the form of sweat, urine, and feces." I know this might be overwhelming but I am going to break it down for you in simple terms! Plus, I will give you tips on how to eliminate these toxins in your home and nutrition for you and your family. A few tips mentioned to help eliminate toxins in your body: Drink lots of water with lemonEat whole, unprocessed foodsExercise regularly Websites Mentionedhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2008-01-16/do-cholesterol-drugs-do-any-goodhttps://experiencelife.com/article/8-hidden-toxins-whats-lurking-in-your-cleaning-products/You can find me at: Website: https://www.drglenschaffer.comEssential Oils: https://www.doterra.com/US/en/site/drglenschafferFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/SanCarlosChiro/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SanCarlos_Chiro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Fjfzgxs4ST677GnYbCvSgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drglenchirohealth/ Contact Me: gsspine@gmail.com
What is proper structure? What kind of problems are caused by structural issues? What is this prin, Proper Structure? Every aspect of the human body is designed for function. Every part has a specific movement and function. This is especially true when it involves our musculoskeletal system, but also for all the internal systems as well. Misalignment and/or improper function will cause problems and eventually pain and disease. When your musculoskeletal parts aren’t working properly it causes your joints to wear out faster and have permanent damage. This is true for our internal systems as well, the longer they’re not functioning properly, the greater the chance for permanent damage! Therefore, helping to maintain proper function, for your musculoskeletal system and internal systems, will help prevent faster wearing out and damage. But there is a whole lot more to this and how it relates to your overall well-being, so listen along and learn how you can have proper structure in your everyday life!

Today I will be discussing Principle # 4 in my Vibrant Lifestyle Program, Proper Mental, Emotional and Spiritual well-being. This is a very in-depth and rich topic that plays a very important role in our overall wellbeing and health. I won’t be able to go into as much depth in this topic in one show so be sure to know that there will be a follow up show in the near future! The emotional or mental side of our health has a direct impact on our physical well-being and vise-versa. As I have been mentioning, most of the 6 principles of my Vibrant Lifestyle Program overlap each other and weakness in one principle cause a negative impact in another. Likewise, strength in one area can cause improvement in another principle. Weakness in exercise, nutrition, rest, structure and toxins will have a negative impact on emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. For folks that are working on getting healthy, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being is probably the one principle that most will not think about or try to work on during a wellness program. I am excited to share with you how vitally important our mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being is and to give you practical tips to become stronger in these areas.

How is your sleep routine or should I say, how many hours of quality sleep do you get a night?Sleep is the time for our bodies to rest and re-energize for the next day, so why would we not take our sleep seriously. I have come up with 10 benefits to your health that sleep will give you plus natural tips to help you have a better overall sound sleep. So, rather than depriving yourself of good health and the attendant benefits, you should make the right move and apply these practical suggestions that will help you enjoy better sleep every night.You can find me at: Website: https://www.drglenschaffer.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/SanCarlosChiro/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SanCarlos_Chiro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Fjfzgxs4ST677GnYbCvSgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drglenchirohealth/
Have you been struggling to determine what proper nutrition really is? There are millions of diet plans and foods to eat or not eat but today I am going to give you the steps to take to clean up your diet. Our nation is in desperate need of nutritional change but you do not need to be a nutritionist to make a change. While there are 6 Core Principles to my Vibrant Lifestyle Program, I’ve listed Proper Exercise and Proper Nutrition first. A lot can be accomplished if we get moving and start eating better. Unfortunately, most folks only concentrate on the first two when trying to attain better health and as I explained in episode #1, all 6 principles are important. Proper nutrition is about quality and quantity, eat good food and in the correct amounts. That’s a simple summary isn’t it?!? It’s safe to assume that not all foods are created equal! Some foods will help to keep you healthy and others foods contribute to sickness and disease! Let’s dig into that a bit and see if we can determine a good starting point for quality and quantity!

This week’s episode is all about Essential Oils and I have a special guest to chat about this popular approach to a more holistic lifestyle. Essential Oils have been around for thousands of years, used for a variety of purposes, including health applications, they have become increasingly more popular in recent years. There are several reasons for this: ability to harvest and mass produce large quantities of high quality, pure oils is probably the biggest reason allowing usage to grow.I’m very excited today to talk with Allison Alexander, the individual that introduced me to Essential Oils. Allison helps explain Essential Oils in simple terms as we cover 1) Basics about what Essential Oils are 2) what they’re used for 3) How to use them and 4) How folks can get these products.You can find me at: Essential Oils: https://www.doterra.com/US/en/site/drglenschafferWebsite: https://www.drglenschaffer.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/SanCarlosChiro/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SanCarlos_Chiro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Fjfzgxs4ST677GnYbCvSgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drglenchirohealth/
Do you know what your purpose is? I am not sure what your background is or what your spiritual beliefs are but I will share with you what I have learned on how to find my purpose in life. God spoke to the people of Israel to tell them not to be afraid and that He see them as precious to Him and He loves them. Isaiah 43:1-7 (English Standard Version-ESV)43 But now thus says the Lord, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. 3 For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I give Egypt as your ransom, Cush and Seba in exchange for you.4 Because you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you, I give men in return for you, peoples in exchange for your life. 5 Fear not, for I am with you. I will bring your offspring from the east, and from the west I will gather you. 6 I will say to the north, Give up, and to the south, Do not withhold; bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the end of the earth, 7 everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.”I will share with you the health benefits along with having a purpose for your life and how I have incorporated it in my everyday life in hopes to help you find your purpose. Quotes: “The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.”― Ralph Waldo Emerson “The purpose of life is a life of purpose.”― Robert BryneJeremiah 29:11 (English Standard Version-ESV)11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare[a] and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.We have a NEED for purpose in our life regardless of where your stand from a spiritual perspective doesn’t matter. Research scientist and mental health workers all agree that statement is TRUE!2 Corinthians 5:17 (English Standard Version- ESV)17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.[a] The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.2 Timothy 2:11 (English Standard Version -ESV)11The saying is trustworthy, for: If we have died with him, we will also live with him;Galatians 2:20 (English Standard Version -ESV)20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.You can find me at: Website: https://www.drglenschaffer.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/SanCarlosChiro/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/SanCarlos_Chiro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Fjfzgxs4ST677GnYbCvSgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drglenchirohealth/
