No More Super Mom!

Most mothers today tend to wear many hats in addition to their “Mom” cap – wife, sister, daughter, employee, boss, volunteer, PTO member, scout leader, club member, taxi driver, etc. Sometimes life can be overwhelming and very few women are skilled in the art of just saying “NO!” The “Super Mom” syndrome is very real, and it takes its toll on women in terms of physical, mental and emotional stress. (The three causes of subluxation.)

The following are just a few reasons why every mom needs to dump the notion that she can be a “Super Mom”:

Super Mom.
  1. There is no such thing as a perfect anybody. It just can’t be done. Trying to be perfect in every facet of your life is pure folly.

  2. It is exhausting and overwhelming to think that you can be all things to all people. Besides that, it’s an impossible goal.

  3. Children need their mother available to meet their needs, not everyone else’s.

  4. A “super mom” never lives in the joy of the moment; she is always looking at what she has to do next.

  5. Unrealistic expectations that we set for ourselves, and fail to achieve, lead to stress, anxiety and depression. Stress causes many diseases that can kill; anxiety and depression rob us of our health and overall well being.

If more women took the time to nurture themselves and their close relationships with family and friends, instead of trying to do it all perfectly, more women would lead happy and purposeful lives. No one is perfect and no one is meant to be. If you realize that, you’ll start to have a lot more fun. Being a mom is about being, not just doing!

Why is a "slipped disc" unlikely?
Separating each spinal vertebra is a disc. Its fibrous outer ring holds in a jelly-like material. Because of the way a disc attaches to the spinal bones above and below it, it can't actually "slip." However, a disc can bulge, tear, herniate, thin and collapse. But it can't slip.
What controls your pulse, blood pressure and cholesterol?
Conventional health care focuses on the various aspects of your blood. But these are merely effects. Chiropractic focuses on the integrity of your nervous system that controls, regulates and monitors every aspect of your circulatory system, every aspect of your body and every person in Fort Collins.
