Spirit of Bayanihan Pioneering chiropractic in the Philippines is a community effort. Unlike other established health professions like medicine and dentistry that have much larger support systems and decades of building many schools to provide practitioners in every city, Chiropractic is still in its pioneer stages. Those individuals who have benefitted from their chiropractic experience can make a difference in their communities by sharing their experiences. Undoubtedly, people share their stories with close family, but most families have not been…
God and Your Nervous System in Health Did you know that your health is largely dependent on a properly working nervous system? It is much in the same way your phone or computer works properly because it has a functioning operating system. As science created the computer, God created your brain. In fact, man’s efforts at improving on computers are to duplicate what the complex systems of the brain can already do. We will look at the complexities of the…
In today’s rolling quarantine we still recognize the importance of keeping a strong immune system. Sharing this article by Andac Hongur 07.12.2020 from ISTANBUL with our readers to remind us of a few good things to always keep in mind. Lack of sleep makes the body more vulnerable to infections.

This week marks the beginning of our 9th year as a community blog. Now for a different share. Science declares that the universe began with a big bang some 13.8 billion years ago and that the universe has been expanding ever since. The billions, trillions and septillions of celestial bodies, stars, planets, and other cosmic entities have been coalescing and otherwise hurling in space and shaping the cosmos that we can now observe and the universe we cannot yet observe.…

We have seen different nations implement various policies on quarantines that range from short term enhanced community quarantines to some more draconian lockdown of its entire borders. These…

Casualness Leads to Casualties… OUCH! This quote from success guru Jim Rohn really hits the heart as it has important lessons that we can apply to our health. The definition of casual is to occur by chance versus by intent, lacking a high degree of interest or devotion; one of showing little concern, and not treating things seriously. Imagine an assembly line worker treating their job too casually. Arriving late to work delaying the entire assembly line, not wearing proper…
Covid-19 herd immunity It has been 100 years since the last severe global pandemic and no one is alive who can share their experiences from those days. Without the current WHO policies, they just let the virus play out its existence and allowed the herd immunity response of the world population have its natural effect.
