Learn how to handle the stress in your life

Monday, January 14, 7pm in the lecture hall.
 
It is through the Nervous System that we experience the world around us. We coordinate the function of every cell, tissue and organ in the body through the Nervous System. It is also the part of us which reasons with emotion and adapts to stress. With the fast paced world we live in today, our Nervous System's become overloaded with information. We often can't process all that is coming at us and we respond with a fight or flight reaction- fear, anxiety, depression, exhaustion, headaches, pain, getting sick. What if instead of just trying to get by, you could take in all of the information coming your way and have strategies to optimize stress? Instead of problems, you now see opportunities. 

Dr. Chris Girdis, chiropractor at Wellspring Center for Wellbeing, utilizes Network Spinal Analysis to upgrade the Nervous System. Gentle and precise touches to the spine encourage stretching and breathing movements that unwind the fight or flight tension bound in the spinal cord. Through the body's response to these touches, it is able to access the higher part of the brain; the cerebral cortex. This is the region of the brain through which we make choices regarding our behavior and the area through which we can reach a higher level of humanity. Dr. Girdis is looking forward to sharing his expertise and strategies to overcome stress and gain more energy in your everyday life.
