We had a follow-up with .jesslofgren and as soon as we finished Jackson said well I was prescribed to increase my adjustments so…. I need an adjustment 🤣🤣

Thankful for all your knowledge ❤️

One of the things we are working on with Jackson is integrating a reflex by using sensations, rehab, and adjustments to the back. All putting information into the skin, muscles, and brain 🧠

I'm leaving my puffy marshmallow phase! 👋 30 lbs down and feeling great! 🎉

I've struggled with my weight for most of my life, so finally seeing progress is really exciting.

I always try to approach things naturally, and I found a homeopathic program that has really helped kick things into gear. To all the ladies out there who are doing all the right things but not seeing results, I understand your frustration, but there is hope! 🙋‍♀️

I just love that when a problem arises my family knows to come get adjusted and laser first. I hate that he injured himself but while he was in the office I made him snap a photo with me 📸

Did you know that chiropractic care can actually change your brain and improve your emotional control? It’s true! Chiropractic adjustments have been found to affect a part of the brain called the pre-frontal cortex, which is responsible for calming down your emotional brain - also known as the limbic system.

This is great news for people who struggle with anxiety and depression, as these conditions are often associated with an overactive limbic system and a low-functioning pre-frontal cortex.

So if you’re looking for a natural and effective way to improve your emotional well-being, consider giving chiropractic care a try! 🧠

If you are feeling out of sorts due to the time change, chiropractic can help! The time change can affect your circadian rhythms, leading to sleep difficulties.

The amount of sleep that’s recommended varies depending on age. Toddlers should get 11-14 hours of sleep, preschool-aged children should get 10-13 hours, school-aged children need 9-12 hours, teenagers require 8-10 hours, and adults between 18 and 60 years old should aim for 7-9 hours of sleep per night. This range is also recommended for individuals over 60.

A recent study conducted in the US found that 40% of people who visited a chiropractor reported improved sleep. So, if you’re struggling with the time change, know you’re not alone. I encourage you to stop by and get adjusted this week.

Some other tips I like include spending time outside in the morning and early evening light can help regulate your melatonin production and improve your sleep.

Using color therapy glasses during the evening can help block out the blue light and help your brain relax.

What's your favorite hack to help adjust to the time change?

Last year Dad and I bought some raised beds and did a little gardening. I was surprised at how calming it was and how much I enjoyed being out there in the garden we planted strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, pomegranates trees, squash, zucchini, lettuce, cucumbers, bell peppers, and tomatoes. I think we did pretty well for our first year.

As a funny side issue of gardening, and gardening while grounding, when I went to have a pedicure, the woman thought I didn’t own any shoes 😂

This weekend Dad helped me prepare the beds so we can start planting again. Hopefully, this year will be even better! Heres is it funny side to learning and growing 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾

if you have a favorite place to order seeds, let me know!

I love this chapter. It’s such a good reminder that God has given many different kinds of gifts to each of us. We need each other and community.

I believe that healing can manifest in various forms. It may occur as a miracle, or God can guide you to someone who has the knowledge to help you on your healing journey. We are all one body in Christ, and I am grateful for all of the beautiful parts. ❤️
