This document discusses how the mind can influence the body's experience of pain through belief and balancing the autonomic nervous system. It explains that belief can activate the placebo effect, which is effective 30% of the time. Additionally, balancing the sympathetic "fight or flight" system with the parasympathetic "rest and digest" system can help reduce pain. Specific techniques like yoga, meditation, and relaxation exercises can help balance the autonomic system and train the mind to influence the body.

Ltd 2011 fibromyalgie
The document discusses fibromyalgia (FM), a chronic pain syndrome characterized by widespread muscle pain and fatigue. It outlines various theories for the causes of FM, including mental illness, abnormal brain signaling, and neuro-immune-hormonal dysfunction. Common FM triggers include stress, trauma, infection, and disrupted sleep. The document also lists many common FM symptoms and discusses diagnosis, treatment options, lifestyle factors that can relieve symptoms or make them worse, and the role of the autonomic nervous system in the experience of pain.
Parasympathethic system
The document summarizes the parasympathetic nervous system. It is the involuntary nervous system that slows the heart rate, increases intestinal and glandular activity, and relaxes sphincter muscles. Together with the sympathetic nervous system, it constitutes the autonomic nervous system. The parasympathetic system works to return the body to homeostasis after experiencing stress or pain by slowing the heart rate and relaxing muscles. It is consistently active at a low level.
Physical Pain
1) The document discusses pain physiology and why we experience both acute and chronic pain. It explains that pain serves an important protective function but can persist even after an injury has healed.
2) When an injury occurs, inflammation causes swelling and sensitizes nerves to detect harmful stimuli. Chronic pain develops when nerves and tissues become highly sensitized over long periods of time.
3) Managing chronic pain involves understanding its causes, staying active, addressing mental health, avoiding overexertion, and setting new goals rather than focusing on eliminating pain completely. Treatment options like physiotherapy and exercise programs can help coping strategies.
15 Natural Mood Enhancer
1. Many Americans are taking antidepressants due to chemical imbalances caused by stress, poor diet and lifestyle choices that can lower serotonin and disrupt hormones.
2. There are natural mood enhancers that can effectively address these imbalances, including exercise, sleep, probiotics to balance gut health, yoga, massage, spending time in nature and with pets, and supplements.
3. Making positive lifestyle changes to reduce stress, eat a nutritious diet, spend time outdoors and socializing can help stabilize mood without side effects from prescription medications.

Hypothalamus overdrive explanation
The hypothalamus regulates homeostasis but can malfunction and work at an increased rate, causing various symptoms. When overactive, the hypothalamus sends excessive signals that interfere with brain function and cause issues like brain fog and disrupted sleep patterns. It can also trigger symptoms by activating the fight or flight response, producing low mood, temperature fluctuations, IBS, heart/blood pressure changes, muscle issues, headaches, and immune system changes. The immune system initially fights infections better but then drops below normal, allowing opportunistic illnesses.

Why Movement is Key to Healthy Aging
…and how to add fitness to your routine easily & effectively
Kate Voiles, Certified Health and Lifestyle Coach
Aging can be a beautiful and rewarding process. It is important to take steps to stay healthy and active as we age. Fitness and movement can play a vital role in helping us age with grace and wellness.
There are many benefits to being physically active as we age. Exercise can help us maintain our strength, flexibility, and balance. It can also help reduce our risk of chronic diseases and can improve our mood, sleep quality, and overall sense of well-being.
The first in the 2023 Series of Mancos Wellness Talks, “Why Movement is Key to Healthy Aging” focuses on fitness and the benefits to our bodies, minds, and lifestyle as we age through the decades.
Humans are meant to move. All of our systems are designed to move and only function properly when we do. Kate Voiles, a Certified Health and Lifestyle Coach, will show us how the mind is the first step on the road to wellness and how it is interrelated with movement.
The goal is to create a healthier, happier mind, brain, and body in a simple and effective way. Kate will give us easy ways to live a naturally healthy life without feeling deprived. She will also show us how to combine movement with stress-relieving techniques and mindset shifts to help create routines for healthy habits and lifestyle. Whether you're an Olympic athlete or a couch potato, you'll benefit from these combined daily practices!

Certified Health and Lifestyle Coach
Owner, Aspire Life Wellness
How do health coaches work with clients? In the gym, meet in person or online to help keep their client aware and on track of their desired healthy lifestyle and coach them through their mental blocks.
Why a health coach? Kate was diagnosed with SSCD, with a CT scan in Jan of 2019, a condition where holes are found throughout the inner ear encompassing bones. It wreaks havoc with your vestibular system, creates sound sensitivity, bodily sounds are heard, and creates overwhelming stress on the brain.
When looking at a half million worth of brain surgeries, out of state, with a year recovery time, with no guarantees, at 54, she set out to look at natural ways of dealing with this condition. This brought her to researching and learning- then receiving her certification as a health and lifestyle coach.
Kate continues to learn all she can, and is currently in a certified physical fitness personal trainer program.

Riley sowle empowered health presentation (1)
This document provides biographical information about Riley Sowle and outlines his approach to health and wellness. It discusses how the nervous system controls the body and can be impacted by stress, leading to impaired function. Sowle's program focuses on chiropractic, nutrition, exercise and lifestyle habits to empower personal health and optimal function through relief, corrective and wellness care plans. The goal is to educate people to take control of their health and make choices that support the body's natural ability to heal.
The vestibular system is the part of the inner ear that helps us m.docx
The vestibular system is the part of the inner ear that helps us maintain our balance and sense of head orientation and movement. It's as old as the cochlea in evolutionary time. The systems are highly similar. In both, hair cells transduce motion into nerve
signals, but the vestibular system senses much slower vibrations of just a few Hz in contrast to the cochlea's 20 to 20,000 Hz.
The cochlea, on the right hand of the picture, gives us our sense of hearing. The three semicircular canals of the vestibular apparatus, on the left, are fluid-filled tunnels in the skullbone. Each semicircular canal contains hair cells in the bulge at its base, the ampulla. Because the semicircular canals on each side of the head are oriented roughly at right angles to each other, they signal head movement no matter how we move.
The utricle and saccule sense static head position. They contain particles of calcium carbonate that pull on hair cells. The hairs in the utricle are vertical, while those of the saccule are horizontal; thus the organ can tell you the angle of the head in geometric coordinates! If one of the bony particles, called otoconia, should slip out of position you may experience a form of dizziness when you bend over that is called benign paraoxysmal positional vertigo (sometimes the "paraoxysmal" is left out). A doctor will tell you how to bend your head to reposition the otoconia and return to normal or it may slip back on its own in a few months. You can find more about vertigo here.
Understanding the vestibular part of the inner ear helps to explain why we get so dizzy when we spin, a joy that diminishes with age. If you are a parent of toddlers, know that when you reach middle age they will be just the age to delight in carnival rides, and of course you will be invited to join them after a large, greasy lunch. A noble calling, parenthood.
We judge motion by comparing what the eyes see with what the vestibular organs sense about our body movement. If the vestibular apparatus says that we're not moving, then any movement sensed by the eyes must be outside the body. (The brain discounts the appearance of movement caused by eye movement itself.) Then the brain tells the eyes just how to move to keep track of the moving object. If we're moving and the world is moving, too, we need to keep track of the objects while adjusting for our body's movement. The eyes and the semicircular canals have to work together on this. However, if you twirl around and set the fluid of one or two pairs of the semicircular canals into motion and then stop suddenly, you fool the brain into thinking the world is spinning. The reason is that the vestibular fluid is moving as though you're moving, so the eyes are moved to track objects.
This eye movement, called nystagmus, makes the world seem to spin. You can produce the same effect by drinking alcohol, which lowers the specific gravity of the fluid of the semicircular canals and stimulates the vestibular hair ce ...

Riley sowle empowered health presentation (1)
This document provides biographical information about Riley Sowle and outlines his approach to health and wellness. It discusses how the nervous system controls the body and can be impacted by stress, leading to impaired function. Sowle's program focuses on chiropractic, nutrition, exercise and lifestyle habits to empower personal health and optimal function through relief, corrective and wellness care plans. The goal is to educate people to take control of their health and make choices that support the body's natural ability to heal.
The vestibular system is the part of the inner ear that helps us m.docx
The vestibular system is the part of the inner ear that helps us maintain our balance and sense of head orientation and movement. It's as old as the cochlea in evolutionary time. The systems are highly similar. In both, hair cells transduce motion into nerve
signals, but the vestibular system senses much slower vibrations of just a few Hz in contrast to the cochlea's 20 to 20,000 Hz.
The cochlea, on the right hand of the picture, gives us our sense of hearing. The three semicircular canals of the vestibular apparatus, on the left, are fluid-filled tunnels in the skullbone. Each semicircular canal contains hair cells in the bulge at its base, the ampulla. Because the semicircular canals on each side of the head are oriented roughly at right angles to each other, they signal head movement no matter how we move.
The utricle and saccule sense static head position. They contain particles of calcium carbonate that pull on hair cells. The hairs in the utricle are vertical, while those of the saccule are horizontal; thus the organ can tell you the angle of the head in geometric coordinates! If one of the bony particles, called otoconia, should slip out of position you may experience a form of dizziness when you bend over that is called benign paraoxysmal positional vertigo (sometimes the "paraoxysmal" is left out). A doctor will tell you how to bend your head to reposition the otoconia and return to normal or it may slip back on its own in a few months. You can find more about vertigo here.
Understanding the vestibular part of the inner ear helps to explain why we get so dizzy when we spin, a joy that diminishes with age. If you are a parent of toddlers, know that when you reach middle age they will be just the age to delight in carnival rides, and of course you will be invited to join them after a large, greasy lunch. A noble calling, parenthood.
We judge motion by comparing what the eyes see with what the vestibular organs sense about our body movement. If the vestibular apparatus says that we're not moving, then any movement sensed by the eyes must be outside the body. (The brain discounts the appearance of movement caused by eye movement itself.) Then the brain tells the eyes just how to move to keep track of the moving object. If we're moving and the world is moving, too, we need to keep track of the objects while adjusting for our body's movement. The eyes and the semicircular canals have to work together on this. However, if you twirl around and set the fluid of one or two pairs of the semicircular canals into motion and then stop suddenly, you fool the brain into thinking the world is spinning. The reason is that the vestibular fluid is moving as though you're moving, so the eyes are moved to track objects.
This eye movement, called nystagmus, makes the world seem to spin. You can produce the same effect by drinking alcohol, which lowers the specific gravity of the fluid of the semicircular canals and stimulates the vestibular hair ce ...
Halfhourhealth Chiro Ed
This document provides information about the importance of education in healthcare. It discusses how educated patients get better results faster and at lower cost by understanding their options and how their body works. It notes that the United States ranks last in health outcomes despite spending the most on healthcare. Chiropractic care is presented as an alternative that can remove nerve interference called subluxations, boost the immune system, and increase overall health and function over time through consistent wellness-focused care rather than just managing pain.
New exam prep - website
This document provides information and tips for exam preparation and stress management. It discusses what stress is, common causes of stress like poor time management and social media overuse, and how stress can sometimes be beneficial in small amounts by boosting immune and brain function. The document then gives many suggestions for dealing with stress such as eating a healthy diet high in vitamins and minerals, staying organized, relaxing with hobbies, exercising, sleeping well, breathing exercises, helping others, and planning exam preparation the night before and on the day of the exam.
Dr venitia young
This document provides information on stress, its physical and psychological symptoms, and strategies for managing stress. It discusses how stress can affect breathing patterns and tension in the body. Easy breathing techniques are recommended to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system and reduce stress symptoms. Specific breathing exercises like 7/11 breathing and square breathing are outlined. The benefits of abdominal breathing over chest breathing are explained. Recommended books and resources on breathing and stress management are also provided.
Dealing with Stress
The document discusses the negative effects of stress on health and provides natural stress relief methods. It states that stress contributes to 80-85% of illnesses and costs businesses $200-300 billion per year. Chronic stress can cause high blood pressure, skin problems, and other issues. Chiropractic care is presented as an effective drug-free approach to stress management by reducing nervous system interference from vertebral subluxations. Maintaining good posture and getting regular chiropractic adjustments can help the body better manage stress.
RRR HEALTH CENTRE AURICULO
Auricular therapy involves placing small needles in specific points on the ears to stimulate the central nervous system and balance energy flow. This can address physical and emotional issues by reprogramming cellular memories from traumatic experiences. Stimulating reflex points on the ears sends messages to the brain to release stress hormones and relax the body. Auricular therapy can effectively treat conditions like stress, anxiety, depression, pain, and addictions, as it balances the body's systems in a gentle, non-invasive way without side effects.
Posutre Hhth
The document discusses the importance of proper posture and reducing spinal subluxations for health. It notes that subluxations can reduce nerve function by 60% and correcting them early is important. Poor posture can accelerate aging by increasing strain on the nervous system and placing pressure on internal organs. Regular chiropractic care can help maintain optimal spinal alignment and nerve function for improved health.
Discover Better Health
The document discusses how chiropractic care and maintaining a healthy nervous system can help people live longer, healthier, happier lives with more energy and less sickness. It explains that chiropractic adjustments have been shown in studies to improve brain function and that even minor issues like a nerve being compressed by the weight of a dime can reduce spinal nerve transmission by 70%. The document promotes chiropractic care for maintaining spinal and nervous system health to avoid issues and feel better.

5 simple ways_to_end_anxiety_and_panic_attacks
The document discusses techniques for preventing and stopping panic attacks. It explains that panic attacks are caused by the body's emergency response activating in non-dangerous situations. This causes uncontrolled fear and physical symptoms. Five techniques are presented for interrupting panic attacks: focusing on deep breathing to calm the nervous system; controlling anxious thoughts through meditation; relaxing the tense muscles through progressive muscle relaxation; reducing stress through regular exercise; and improving mood by avoiding foods that can trigger anxiety symptoms or imbalances. Mastering these techniques allows sufferers to gain control over panic attacks rather than feeling controlled by them.
DrRic Stress (slide share edition)
The document discusses stress relief and relaxation techniques. It recommends cultivating the relaxation response through meditation, deep breathing exercises, yoga, nutrition, and lifestyle changes. The goal is to lower stress levels and reduce health risks by controlling the body's reaction to stressors.
Dr You Ppt
A presentation designed to remind us that we are usually capable of more than we give ourselves credit for.
Report of Findings
The document discusses how movement and proper spinal alignment are essential for health and brain function. It explains that over half the spinal cord is composed of nerves that deliver proprioception signals to the brain and that a vertebral subluxation complex can decrease these positive signals and increase stress hormones. Achieving normal spinal motion and alignment through chiropractic adjustments along with lifestyle changes can help correct vertebral subluxations and increase health and vitality.

Editor's Notes
- This is a good example of comfort changing the experience of pain. The mother may not even talk about or touch the painful spot, but her gift of Comfort changes how her child feels.
- Herbert Benson started out as a cardiologist, but he soon realized that what really interested him was the mind/body connection. He founded, and still directs, the Mind Body Institute within Harvard Medical School. When he started studying it in the 1960s, the mind/body connection wasn’t very popular, but thanks in part to Dr. Benson’s work, we now have a substantial body of scientific knowledge about this subject. Benson was especially intrigued with the placebo effect, which he says is incorrectly named, and has gotten an undeserved poor reputation. The accepted rule of thumb for medication experiments is that 30% of participants will have improvements from the placebo effect. Benson prefers to call this “Remembered Wellness.” He explains that each cell of the human body is programmed to know what it is like to be well. Since the mind and body are so powerfully connected, a suggestion from the mind that the body may get well is enough to trigger the body to return to this remembered state of wellness. In his book Timeless Healing , Benson outlines his studies of remembered wellness. He consistently elicited a 70-90% response rate, rather than the accepted 30% (that’s higher than most medications). I highly recommend this reading.
