How Regular Chiropractic Care Supports Overall Wellness - A Conversation with Dr. Robert Martines

01/30/16 • 42 min

Dr. Martines has been in practice for 26 years. He was a four-term president of the Santa Clara County Chiropractic Society and was voted by his colleagues Doctor or the Year four times. He is active on many local boards, volunteers for various non-profits, but most important to me is... he has been my chiropractor and partner in my wellness regime for over 10 years. I definitely meditate, exercise and focus on proper nutrition, but I also credit the work that we have done together with my overall sense of well being and ability to stay positive and happy.

How Internal Maps Form The Landscape of Your Reality – A Conversation with Jonathan Wells

Each of Us Has an Internal Map of Reality Which is Made Up of Our Experiences and Their Effect On Us. Your internal map of reality is your perception of the world around you and how you perceive yourself fitting into it. If your childhood experiences led you to believe that making mistakes was akin to death, your internal map will ensure your survival by making you averse to doing anything that could potentially result in a less than perfect outcome. In addition, on a subconscious level you are so convinced that your map of reality is correct, you pull evidence from the outside world to validate it. If your experiences led you to believe that you were unlovable, you will look for evidence to validate this and perhaps attract people to you who are incapable of loving. But remember, your internal map is not who you are, it is a tool that you have developed to assist you with navigating in the world. You created it, so you can change it.
