Are We Raising Weekend Warriors… Or Burnt-Out Kids?
Summer hits and suddenly it’s:
- Tournaments every weekend
- Back-to-back games
- Travel teams
- Hours in the car
- Long, hot days
We call them “weekend warriors.”
But here’s the question no one asks:
Are they actually thriving or just surviving the schedule?
Because Success Isn’t Just Playing More
It’s easy to think:
-More reps = better athlete
-More games = more success
But thriving kids need more than just playtime.
They need:
- Rest between the chaos
- Fuel that actually supports their body
- Hydration (not just sports drinks and snacks)
- Recovery for growing muscles and joints
- A nervous system that isn’t constantly overwhelmed
The Part That Is Often Overlooked
-Kids are still developing.
-Their bodies adapt quickly but they also fatigue quickly when there’s no balance.
Without recovery, you’ll see:
- More injuries
- More irritability
- Less focus
- Burnout (even if they love the sport)
Thriving isn’t about doing more.
It’s about supporting better.
It looks like:
-Prioritizing sleep even during busy weekends
- Making time for recovery, not just performance
- Supporting their growing bodies (yes, spine and nervous system too)
- Letting them be kids, not just athletes
The Real Win
The goal isn’t to raise the busiest kid.
It’s to raise:
-Confident kids
-Resilient kids
-Healthy kids
-Kids who love what they do -- long term
The Question to Ask

Are we building athletes for this weekend or building healthy humans for life?
Because the kids who truly succeed aren’t just the ones who play the most.
They’re the ones who are supported the best and are Inspired;)

- Energy hits different

- You keep going without the crash
Why Everyone’s Loving It:
-It tastes like summer…and works like science.
Grab your water.
Add your LMNT.
And go SQUEEZE THE DAY.

04/15/2026

What if your child isn’t ‘just going through a phase’… but their body is asking for help?
-Sleepless nights.
-Constant meltdowns.
-Focus struggles.
-Recurring ear infections.
You’ve been told:
“They’ll grow out of it.”
But what if…
- Their nervous system is overwhelmed
- Their body is stuck in stress mode
- Their health isn’t adapting the way it should..and what if there was a natural way to help them regulate, heal, and thrive?
At Inspired Living Chiropractic, we focus on one thing:
Helping your child’s nervous system function at its best...because when the nervous system is clear…
- Sleep improves
- Behavior balances
- Immunity strengthens
- Focus sharpens
This isn’t about “cracking backs.”
This is about restoring connection within your child’s body.
If you’ve ever thought:
“I just want my child to feel better…”
“I know something isn’t right…”
“There has to be another way besides meds…”
You’re not crazy.
And you’re not alone.
Most parents are told to wait, watch, and/or medicate.
But here’s the truth:
- Health is not about symptoms… it’s about function
- Your child doesn’t need to be “sick” to not be healthy
- The earlier you support the nervous system, the better the outcome as they are in developmental stages.
Your child’s body is intelligent.
It just needs the right environment to heal that is Inspiring;)
Imagine this…
- Your child sleeping peacefully
- Calmer mornings, fewer battles
- A body that adapts instead of reacts
-That version of your child already exists....we just help unlock it.
It's really as simple as making a choice...
1. Keep waiting and hoping things change…
2. Or take one step toward real answers
We’re offering a limited number of New Patient Pediatric Assessment Scans this month while we prepare for chaos of the Summer months.
- Message us “KIDS”
-Or give us a call at 319-827-2045 for more information
Let’s find out how your child is really functioning...and what’s possible next.

Why Do Some Parents Choose Consistent Chiropractic Care for Their Kids?

A lot of parents ask:
“Why would my child need regular adjustments if they’re not in pain?”
Fair question.
But here’s the truth:
Kids don’t live static lives.
They’re constantly:
- Growing
- Falling
- Twisting
- Learning to move
- Carrying backpacks
- Playing sports
- Adapting to stress
Their bodies are in a constant state of change.
-The Big Misunderstanding
Most people think care is only needed when something is wrong.
But kids don’t always show dysfunction with pain.
Instead, it may show up as:
- Sleep challenges
- Focus issues
- Emotional ups and downs
- Digestive changes
- Coordination struggles
Because their nervous system is still developing.

Here is Why Consistency Matters
Sporadic care says:
“Let’s address it when something shows up.”
Consistent care says:
“Let’s support the system while it’s developing.”
Think about it like this:
You don’t brush your child’s teeth once when there’s a cavity.
You do it daily to prevent one.
The Nervous System Piece
Your child’s spine protects their nervous system — the system that controls:
- Growth
- Development
- Immune function
- Movement
- Behavior
When that system is supported consistently…
Their body has a better chance to:
- Adapt
- Regulate
- Develop optimally
The Goal Isn’t Just “Fixing”
It’s building.
Building a strong, adaptable, resilient system
while they’re growing the fastest they ever will.
The Question to Ask
Do I want to wait until something is off or support my child while everything is still developing?
Because kids don’t need chiropractic care because they’re broken.
They benefit from it because they’re growing and living Inspired;)

You Can’t Heal in a Hurry… Especially If You’re Not Sleeping.

Let’s talk about something most women I see struggle with…
You’re tired.
But you keep going.
Kids.
Work.
Schedules.
Everyone comes first.
And sleep?
“I’ll catch up later.”
But here’s the truth:
Healing doesn’t happen when you’re busy.
It happens when your nervous system is calm enough to allow it.
Your body doesn’t repair during the day.
It repairs at night.
That’s when:
-Hormones rebalance
- Tissues repair
- Inflammation decreases
- Your nervous system shifts into rest-and-heal mode
Here’s Where Chiropractic Fits In

If your nervous system is stuck in stress mode…
You can be in bed for 8 hours
and still not truly recover.
Stress, tension, and spinal dysfunction can keep your body in a low-level fight-or-flight state.
And a stressed nervous system…
Doesn’t heal well.
Doesn’t rest deeply.
Doesn’t recover fully.
Chiropractic helps support:
- Better nervous system regulation
- Improved ability to shift into rest mode
- Less tension in the body
- More restorative sleep
And Here’s the Part No One Talks About

You can be doing “all the right things”:
Eating better
Getting adjusted
Trying to move more
But if your sleep is off... or your system is stuck in stress…

Healing slows down.
Healing Is a Process...Not an event.
It’s not:
One good night
One good workout
One healthy meal
It’s what you do consistently over time.
So Let Me Ask You This:

Are you giving your body the time and state it needs to heal…
Or are you expecting results
while running on empty?
You deserve more than just getting through the day.
You deserve to actually feel good again.
And that starts with a calm nervous system and a good night’s sleep.

Ladies and gentlemen… we have reached the end of the road.

The Inspired Living March to Madness Step Challenge Championship Game is complete… and the numbers are nothing short of legendary.

The Championship game between Becky & Julie VS Meagan and Mackenzie equated to…768,303 total steps. (*Read that again.)

That’s roughly 350 to 390 miles traveled in 7 days … on foot… step by step… choice by choice.

This wasn’t just a challenge.
This was a journey to forge momentum.
And every team showed up.

To each of our championship teams…Congratulations!

And to all of the 24 teams that competed this year...

Thank you.

You didn’t just join a challenge. You proved that small, daily actions add up to something powerful.

Win or lose… you’ve already changed the game.

But here’s the thing…
There is no “off switch.”
The offseason starts now.

Because the people who saw results with their energy levels and overall happiness this month because of the extra movement?

They don’t stop.
They keep walking.They keep moving.They keep building.

So enjoy this moment.

Celebrate what you’ve done.
And then get back to work.
Because next season?
It’s coming.

With all of that said and having drawn this out as long as I can....

Here are the Championship Results:

The team of...

Becky Bohling & Julie Steinbron averaged to a total of: 203, 394 steps this week.

Meagan Thoma & Makenzie Reiter averaged to a total of: 180,745 steps this week.

EACH MEMBER of the winning team will receive:

1. A year supply of Dairy Kone ice cream (*wink ;)
2. $100 Scheels Gift Card to get some new shoes.
3. A combo pack of LMNT electrolytes to hydrate those cells

As always....

You Schedule Meetings… But Not Your Recovery?

You block off time for:
-Work.
-Appointments.
-Kids’ activities.
-Deadlines.
But when it comes to:
-Rest…
-Vacation…
-Mental health…...It’s “when I get time."
If you don’t schedule rest…..you’ll be forced into it through:
- Burnout
- Exhaustion
- Irritability
- Lack of focus
- Feeling constantly “on edge”
Your body always collects what you ignore.
Scheduling vacations and mental health days isn’t lazy.
It’s strategic.
It gives your nervous system:
- Time to reset
- Space to breathe
- A break from constant stimulation
- A chance to recover and recharge
And when you come back?
-You’re sharper.
-More present.
-More patient.
-More productive.
The Truth Most People Need to Hear
Rest is not a reward.
It’s a requirement.
You don’t earn it.
You need it.
Stop asking:
“Do I have time to take a break?”
Start asking:
“What happens if I don’t?”
Because the best version of you…
Isn’t the busiest one.
It’s the one that knows when to pause.
Go ahead
-Schedule the trip.
-Take the day.
-Step away.
Your future self (and everyone around you) will thank you.

Top 3 Ways to Fall Asleep Faster (Without Tossing for Hours)”

We’ve all been there…
-Tired.
-In bed.
-Eyes closed.
But your brain?
Running a full marathon.
-- Calm Your Nervous System First
You can’t fall asleep if your body thinks it needs to stay alert.
Try:
• Deep breathing (in 4 seconds, out 6–8 seconds)
• Turning lights down 30–60 minutes before bed
• No intense scrolling or emails
Sleep isn’t something you force.
It’s something you allow.
-- Lower the Stimulation
Your brain needs a clear signal:
“It’s time to shut down.”
That means:
- Cool, dark room
- Minimal noise (or white noise)
- No bright screens right before bed
If your environment is loud and bright…
Your brain stays “on.”
--Keep a Consistent Sleep Time
Your body loves rhythm.
Going to bed at random times every night?
That’s like giving your brain jet lag on purpose.
Try:
- Same bedtime (within 30–60 minutes)
- Same wake time
- Consistent routine
Over time, your body starts falling asleep faster automatically.
The Truth
Sleep isn’t about being exhausted.
It’s about being regulated.
A calm nervous system falls asleep.
A stressed one stays awake.
Start with one habit tonight.
Your future mornings will thank you.
See you soon-

Today is World Health Day.
A global reminder that health isn’t just something we hope for…
It’s something we build.
But here’s the truth:
A healthier world doesn’t start in hospitals.
It starts in homes.
-In daily choices.
-In small habits.
-In what you do when no one is watching.
Want to Do Your Part?
Start here:
- Move your body today — even if it’s just a walk
- Drink more water than you think you need
- Eat something real, not processed
- Get outside and breathe fresh air
- Go to bed earlier than usual
- Take care of your nervous system
- Check in on someone you care about
The Bigger Picture
Health isn’t just personal.
When you take care of yourself:
- You show up better for your family
- You have more energy for your kids
- You create a ripple effect for this community
Your choices matter more than you think.
Today’s Inspired Challenge:
-What is ONE thing you can do today that your future self will thank you for?
Start there.
Because a healthier world…
Starts with healthier and Inspired;) individuals.

There’s no autopilot for health.
Only patterns.
And your patterns are your responsibility.
You don’t lose health overnight.
You hand it over… one decision at a time.
Or you build it… the same way.

04/06/2026

We love to think life changes in one big decision.
A fresh start.
A big goal.
A moment of motivation.
But that’s not how it works.
Your life is shaped by what you do…
Repeatedly.
Patterns Create Outcomes
-Not once.
-Not occasionally.
Daily.
In Health:
One workout won’t change your body.
But the pattern of:
- Moving daily
- Eating intentionally
- Sleeping consistently
That changes everything.
In Finances:
One good paycheck doesn’t build wealth.
But the pattern of:
- Saving regularly
- Spending intentionally
- Investing consistently
That builds freedom.
The Hard Truth
-You don’t rise to your goals.
-You fall to your patterns.
The Real Question
What patterns are you reinforcing daily?
Are you stopping by the gas station for breakfast everymorning?
Are you staying up late scrolling on your phone...every night?
Are those patterns building the life you want…
Or quietly creating one you don’t?

Because in the end:
-Success isn’t an event.
-Health isn’t an event.
-Happiness isn’t an event.
-They’re patterns.
And patterns…can be changed.
Starting today.
See you soon-
