Gratitude is such a key pillar in Anishinaabe wisdom in how to live a good life (mino bimaadiziwin) 🐢

Traditionally done with an offering like to***co (sema), at sunrise, facing the east 🌞 We take a moment to send thanks to Creator & all our relatives who we could not live without 🌊🍃🌲🦋🐟

Take little moment to feel your feet, notice the sky & send appreciation to who you know deserves it.

These small practices can start to add up to a big, beautiful life, like a butterfly effect 🙊

We were meant to live in rhythm with the natural cycles of the day, months, years, generations 🌀

So if you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or moving faster than your spirit can keep up, we feel you.

Needing support? Book a free 15-minute consultation to start your reconnection journey 🦋🥰

LWhen you start to put the pieces together, it makes a lot more sense!

I’m Dr. Sadie, a wholistic chiropractor in Ottawa, determined to help people heal pain with the body by healing the nervous system 🫶🏽

This Thursday I am going to go over in depth how hypermobility affects your health & what you can do about it!

You are one complete being: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Leading my practice with Indigenous principles has unlocked deeper understanding for me and my patients.

So let’s connect the dots 👏🏽

Firstly, what is hypermobility? 🤸‍♀️ It is a disorder that exists on a spectrum, where joints glide past their usual range, whether in a few spots or the whole body. (More on this in the talk!)

Proprioceptive confusion 🫠 too much movement sends mixed signals to the brain about where you are in space, clumsiness and those “d’oh!” moments

Bruising easily 💜 fragile capillaries might be connected to a soft tissue disorder if seen with hypermobility

Muscle tightness 😬 frustrating bc you’d think they’d be relaxed, but it’s not uncommon for the deep stabilizer muscles to work harder

Slouched posture 🦐 the body works harder against the inherit instability, the spine collapses into a hunched shape, resting on the bones

Leaning on one hip 🦩 connected to poor proprioception, your posture muscles fatigue & you shift, relying on the leg bones to support you

Clicky joints 👀 with the combo of lax ligaments & tight tendons, your soft tissue or joint capsules can even produce audible pops on normal movement

Low energy 🫩 constant micro‑adjustments drain the nervous system

Flat feet 🐾 hypermobile foot joints make it hard to resist constant joint stress

Light‑headedness 😮‍💨 connected to circulation

Crossing your legs habit ❌ now this one is interesting… the body is seeking stability by locking joints & applying pressure which feels soothing!

Your nervous system is a MASTER adapter 🙌🏽 it’s now a matter of helping to readapt a more stable body 🥹

If any of these feel familiar, you’re not alone.

Join us tomorrow to explore How To Feel Strong With Hypermobility @ 7pm - online or in person 🦋💪🏽

Struggle with feeling tired, brain foggy, & stiff?

Your posture may be telling you that something else is going on!

Hypermobility can show up in so many subtle ways

⚡️ hyperextended knees or elbows
⚡️ being “double jointed”
⚡️ sense of weak, aching or tired joints
⚡️ constant cracking or clicking in your joints
⚡️ feeling like you need to cross your legs or have them bent up when seated (more on this in the event, super interesting!!)
⚡️ challenging time holding good posture throughout the day
⚡️ fatigue or brain fog along with muscle tightness
⚡️ forward head posture with the development of a hump
⚡️ has even been linked to digestive or skin issues (depending!)

If you felt @‘ed 😅 join us next Thursday Mar 19th at 7pm

This is a huge pattern I see as a chiropractor who helps people reconnect with their bodies.

“Although I have been an environmentalist in some capacity since before I can remember and have increasingly incorporated environmental principles into several aspects of my life, I have to admit that I thought little about food and food sources, despite the fact that they are directly connected in so many ways. I came from a time, and a socio-economic reality, where you did not question what was put on your plate, you were only grateful there was something there at all. These last few years however, I have learned more about the impact of food on health, the challenges we are all facing as a society to nutritionally feed ourselves and our families, and the direct co-relation of the health of our environment and our own health.”
