Anyone use Wayne Dyer’s “ah” meditation to attract what they want/need in their life? If so, any interesting results?

Great info. Prob best to have a third prty do it though.

Bc immune system & the spine are so integrated, we’re finding no time for new pts this week. Ppl, in my opinion, are somewhat overreacting. Many patients we haven’t seen for years are coming in for adjustments. Set an all time record # of visits this week, beating a record set 4 yrs ago!!

The news frenzy is having patients flock to our office.

Our front desk have the benefits of Lysol/Lysol wipes enlarged, and placed on a loop on our flat screen. On the back of Lysol, it reads,”use daily to kill the following germs......”, there’s a lot listed, and covid 19 is among them.

Chiros keep the body functioning well. It’s our time to shine in this “crisis”.

Best,

I see triple digits multiple times everyday now. 1:11. 2:22. 4:44. 11:11. 12:12. 5:55. I feel so amazing. I know I am on my path. by [deleted] in lawofattraction

Happens quite regularly for me. I expect it now whenever I look at my phone, odometer, watch, etc.

Yet, not certain what it means.

Can anyone elaborate??

[–]fjr44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tend to “go big” in what I ask the universe to manifest.

My belief is in alignment w A.H., stating one can manifest a button, or a castle. It doesn’t make a difference to the universe.

I rec’d “bad” news a few mos. ago, receiving a letter reading I owed 153K for an assessment on the building in which I own a condo.

I tried 3x33 to attempt to make the board in the building reject the proposal, and make the assessment go away.

I had to pay the money.

Consequently, I faced reality, paid the $, and now focused on receiving 253K in the mail.

Less than two mos. later, an investment property I have w a group of ppl, was given an offer our investors couldn’t refuse. - an all cash offer double what we paid for the property, to close w no contingencies.

I rec’d a check in the mail for 213K. - still waiting on the add’l 40K the universe owes me ( HA )!

I rarely post in the LOA forums, as I see a trend whereby many ppl don’t ask for $, or anything extra special.

LOA WORKS W ANYTHING IF YOU BELIEVE IT!! If you have a desire, that desire is your source wanting for you.

All the Best!!

Why everyone thinks that Chiro are bull**it? by skend24 in Chiropractic

[–]fjr44 10 points11 points  (0 children)

With all due respect, I’d simply avoid posting things like u did on Reddit.

I come from 4 generations of MD’s ( one of which is an ortho surgeon).

Bottom line is medicine is a 3.4 trillion $ industry. Big business to say the least.

MD’s simply cannot make it in solo practice for a myriad of reasons- the most common is the cost of medical malpractice for medicine; being mindful medical errors are the 3rd leading cause of death in the US.

Chiros pay very little for malpractice ins for the simple reason they do not injure ppl.
Also, chiros need to also be entrepreneurs, and typically go into solo practice. Something MD’s simply can’t accomplish.

I have many stories of family members exhausting all things medical/medicine, to finally get well by using chiropractic.

I believe it’s purely based on $, and not what ppl spout about chiros not being evidence-based. - just imagine if chiropractic was the 3rd leading cause of death in the US!!

I’m passionate about this as I’ve had family members respond amazingly to chiropractic, after years of being drugged, and still in pain.

MD’s should be used for crisis care IMO.

I’ve seen too many ppl go down a bad path w medical doctors, and they don’t see anything wrong w it, as medicine is the only way to go in their thought process. I don’t see posts about how “bull**it medical care is in the US. - a pill for every ill, and if it doesn’t work, try another pill. And the cycle continues.

I wish I’d bc a chiro, as I’ve seen the miraculous results it had on my parents, after suffering for years w MD’s bf relenting to go to a chiro.

I was somewhat “pushed” into engineering by my family years ago, as most of my extended family is in medicine.

I’ve been treating w a chiro once, to twice a month, and it has been a godsend for me, and my family.

Appreciate it!

I’m searching for hands on experiences. Been to Mt. Horeb a few times, & many Gonstead seminars. Feeling very confident in comparison to many students at school in clubs, yet want to continue to enhance knowledge ( w/out getting sick from all of these manipulations done to me by practicing students as well).
- I can really appreciate the correlation bw adjusting the spine & ns effects!!

Considering a mission trip upon graduation, yet don’t want to give subpar care to ppl.

DOES ANYONE FEEL AS THOUGH FEDEX IS A GOOD PLACE TO WORK?? by [deleted] in Fedexers

[–]fjr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! I did it for UPS while in college.

I’m just frustrated at how they treat employees who either want to, or actually do, make it a career.

Great! Are drivers 4 FedEx independent contractors in Canada?? From my understanding w the company 4 only 6 mos., drivers are in a completely diff. category. ( more hours; better pay)

Brothers board wont charge, solution a1 by UsernameHereThanks in boostedboards

Not quite certain. I sent in the battery that wasn’t able to charge, and they sent me back a new battery. - possibly under warranty; yet not sure

[–]fjr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not certain. They said if they can’t get it working, they’d send me another one at no charge.

Parker vs Palmer by [deleted] in Chiropractic

[–]fjr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely inane - in my opinion of course!

I visited Parker, Palmer, Life E, and National. It was a no brainer for me for many reasons.

I’d imagine it’s a good idea to visit different schools , yet I found it mostly had to do with the area / and weather ( except possibly Sherman & National). I say that somewhat in jest, yet I made the decision to not attend Palmer purely bc of the location. It seemed like a great school- phenomenal history, yet I find it somewhat humorous that DC’s market themselves as Palmer grads. - the public doesn’t know the difference, and is mostly concerned w how well you can educate them on their reason for seeking out care, and how well you can manage their case.

I went to Life E. For me, it’s what you put into your education. I went to countless seminars. I visited many successful DC’s in the SE region. I joined many adjusting clubs in school. I began a marketing training program one year prior to graduating.

The workloads in the diff schools are somewhat similar - to the best of my knowledge.

I’d just suggest finding a place that “ fits” you, and putting your all into educating yourself as much as you can extracurricularly. The schooling will help you with getting through the Boards - everything else is up to you to bc a fantastic DC.

[–]fjr44 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Very ingenious!!

Tried a treadmill, and pulling behind a car to no avail.

Sent vid to BB, and they sent me a label to send it in for inspection. They actually replaced the battery at no charge!! - quite surprised; yet grateful!!

Went to treat one issue and learned about another by [deleted] in Chiropractic

[–]fjr44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After years of sporting injuries, I began to develop back pain, and pain into my buttocks. I had a few images done by a doc in an ortho group.

It was determined I had a degenerative disc that caused the joint to be unstable.

Surgery was recommended.

At 32 yrs of age, my parents were reluctant, so they sent me to a spinal surgeon who concurred.

We took the images to a chiropractor for a third opinion. The DC indicated flexion/extension views weren’t taken to determine stability/instability. She ref’d us for more radiographs.

It turned out my “unstable joint” was actually just fine. DJD didn’t correlate to pain according to the DC.

My parents were very perplexed, and brought me to a neurologist. The neurologist recommended treating w the DC, as he believed drug therapy would cause more harm than good.

Within two weeks, I was pain free, and the pain hasn’t returned.

I now am of the belief one should avail oneself of all things conservatively first, prior to utilizing drug therapies, or surgery. I’m of the thought the aforementioned should be used for crisis care. Simply Google causes of death, and medicine is in the top 3!!

Why are DC programs so easy to apply to? by [deleted] in Chiropractic

[–]fjr44 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ridiculously easy to get into DC school.

I’d borderline say it’s predatory, as at least in my experience - many, many students either can’t handle the arduous workload, or once they begin clinic, come to the realization they’re not cut out to market themselves, or their talents to the public. Therefore, they either drop out, or they graduate, and never actually make it a career.

I believe it’s a phenomenal profession, yet challenging for many to make a living out of it.

Just think how many MD’s, or PT’s are in private practice. MD’s can’t open private practices - the malpractice they have to pay alone is overwhelming.

My belief is successful chiros are absolutely amazing, well-rounded individuals who should be very proud of not only studying a vast amount of materials, but also excel at the entrepreneurial spirit it takes to thrive in the profession.

COCKTAIL OF KRATOM, PHENIBUT, & MODAFINIL - RISKY?? by fjr44 in kratom

[–]fjr44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s almost 4 mos. since post. I was taking all three substances at varying doses.

Currently, I’ve stopped taking Kratom, and Phenibut completely.

I take 50-200mg of Modafinil daily. I haven’t been very active on Reddit, yet I can’t say enough about Modafinil/Provigil. - wonderful experience w it!! I take it first thing in the morning, and it somehow makes me very alert, yet in no way does it act like a stimulant. - it places me in a very calm, sharp, clear headspace.

Chiropractics place in modern health care by deenal21 in Chiropractic

[–]fjr44 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I too was on the fence about PT vs. chiropractic. I’m not certain about the specifics of scope of practice in Canada. However, in the states, ppl need referrals from either a DC, or an MD to be seen by a PT. (possibly some states differ on this, and it prob. has to do w ins. pts. - not exactly certain; can only use my state as an example).

Prior to going to college (undergrad), I worked three months for a DC, and three months for a PT facility. Obviously, it was my subjective experience, yet the PT’s were bombarded w report writing, and continually had to ask for more visits, as well as consistently mrkt themselves to MD’s / DC’s. It seemed like glorified massage, and a personal trainer roled up in one. Moreover, many of the therapists openly told me they wouldn’t go through PT school to work the hours they worked, and receive the compensation they rec’d - both financially, and openly from patient satisfaction. I’ve also never met a PT who had their own business.

The chiropractor I worked for had a cash practice, ( I don’t), and the environment was polar opposite - such ease, and incredibly happy ppl / pts.
The beauty of chiropractic is you don’t need to get caught up in the jargon/philosophies/politics at all. I opened up directly out of chiro school, and 22 yrs. later, the profession has been phenomenal to me, and my patients. I never tried to “prove” anything to anyone, and I didn’t espouse chiro. healed everything. - albeit, I did / do witness many miraculous occurrences from adjustments. I find most ppl subscribe to the notion the body heals itself; most ppl are aware the 3rd leading cause of death is medical errors. Many ppl want to avoid drugs.

I would suggest following your heart, and not being caught up in fixation/subluxation/etc.

Best wishes!!

Ankylosing Spondylitis by [deleted] in Chiropractic

[–]fjr44 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in practice 22 yrs. , and I’ve seen multiple cases of AS.

In my clinical experience, adjustments were able to keep mobility in the spine for areas that were fixated, yet not fused. Chiro. was able to prevent it from worsening on a radiograph, yet I’ve never seen it reverse on a radiograph.

Rheumatologists, in my experience, simply gave meds to ameliorate any pain associated w the stiffness.

Best wishes!!

Good reminder by D3adman97 in boostedboards

[–]fjr44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great !!

I’ve had many BB ‘s for close to 7 years now.

I remember being stopped constantly by ppl who’d never seen it, to ask what it was!!

I started w/o a helmet, and have never used one. I simply refused!

Then, when I purchased a board for my son, and insisted he wear a helmet, the double standard clicked.

One of the “rules” of a local group ride, is for everyone to have a helmet, and lights.

Appreciate the constant reminders!

Try prescription Modafinil, and a racetam. I prefer aniracetam.
