At Care More Chiropractic in Roswell, GA, we see how quickly busy school schedules can affect the way families feel and function. Eat the Frog It was sitting on my to-do list. For months. Not weeks. Months. Every time I looked at it, I felt that little twinge of dread, that "ugh, I'll do it tomorrow" feeling. It lived rent-free in my brain, whispering that I was behind, behind, behind. And last week? I finally did it. It took less than five minutes. Less. Than. Five. Minutes. I literally sat there after I finished thinking: How many months did I carry that weight for a five-minute task? How much mental energy had I spent avoiding it instead of just doing it? Welcome to August, moms. If you're feeling that, you're not alone. Back to School + The Frog Effect We're in that chaotic energy season. New school clot...

Time is just flying this year!   May is almost half over and I haven’t posted a single blog about Posture.   Since May is National Perfect Posture Month, I must rectify that! Yesterday was Mother’s Day—I was blessed to be able to spend the day celebrating and honoring all of the favorite “mom’s” in my life with family and friends.   What does Mother’s Day have to do with posture???   I don’t know about you, but growing up, my mom was always saying “Don’t slouch!”—When we were doing our homework, reading or watching T.V.   In fact, I would venture to say that all of us probably heard something about our posture from mom.   Mom was absolutely correct!   Posture is vital to our health and wellness.   However, times have changed!   (I know, a total shock, right?)   Technology (smart phones, iPads, and personal gaming devices) is wrecking havoc on our posture.   I see it all the time in young and old alike—people hunc...

May is National Posture Awareness Month.   My experience is that every time I say something about “posture” I immediately see a change—people sit up straighter and uncross their legs.   We all know we should have “correct posture” (I still hear mom saying no slouching!) but do you really know why posture is so important?   What is “correct posture?”    How important is my posture???   Are there exercises I can do to help my posture?     During the month of May, watch my Blog for the answers to these questions and more.   Do you have a posture question you’d like to see answered???   Let me know and I will answer your questions! In the meantime—Straighten Up for the health of it!   Dr. K
