The atom is the microscopic building block of everything we see around us.
This unit of matter consists of three things. A proton, neutron and electron. These three particles are very closely connected, whizzing around one another with a lot of energy. These atoms can connect together sharing their energy to take on a new form. This whizzing energy creates an electromagnetic field which causes vibrational energy. Trillions of these atoms combine and connect to create the living breathing body you have today along with every other physical thing in the universe.
100 trillion atoms connect to create a cell. These cells are programmed in your DNA with a purpose. When a cell joins together with another cell, they start to create complex proteins which then combine to create larger structures such as bone, muscles or an entire organ!
All these micro connections allow the brain to form a map of the larger structure, our body! The brain transmits electrical energy down the main highway we call the spinal cord. This allows connection and communication between all the cells organs and in our body. Our brain uses these connection pathways to learn, adapt and distinguish how to best survive and thrive. When there is interference to this connection, we see an effect on the structure of the body, the organs that control it, and overall health decrease.
As you can see this shows the result of a deep level of connection.
When you break matter down to its smallest measurement and analyse past organs, cells and atoms we get vibrational energy. This energy is everywhere at all times. Every process can be boiled down to a vibrational connection and transfer of energy from one thing to the next.
In this way we are all integrally connected together like an expanding tree network.
Similarly to this our world is more connected than ever! …….. but is it really?
A study done by Decibel research in partnership with Huawei found that the average Australian spends two and a half hours a day on their phones which works out to be a whopping 38 days a year.
Other interesting highlights of the study include:
* 70 per cent of people admitted to storing potentially life-ruining information on their phones.
* 2 in 5 people said damaging their phone would be more upsetting than being cancelled on by a friend’s social media.
With technology, smart phones and computers becoming more and more integral in our society, is this damaging our health and connection with others?
How often are you checking your phone a day?
Social connections are dwindling with people shifting towards the digital option rather than seeking out physical connection. This could possibly affect the future generation of Australians with problems such as social anxiety, isolation, depression and device addiction.
How many times have you walked into a room and without making eye contact or using verbal communication and there is a certain atmosphere in the room whether it be positive or negative? This along with other cues such as tone of voice, facial expression and presence is important in conveying a clear message. With that in mind try to connect with the people around you, leave your phone off in a meeting or leave it at home when you’re out to dinner. Creating meaningful real relationships is very important for our mental and physical health.
We must enrich our relationships, ourselves and our bodies. We can do so in the following ways:
- Mentally, through our thoughts, beliefs, relationships and ideas.
- Chemically, through what we breathe, ingest, touch.
- Physically, through our structure, movement, habits.
It is also possible for us to engage in activities that are detrimental to our bodies. We can overload it with stress at the same levels:
- Mentally, through our thoughts, beliefs, relationships and ideas.
- Chemically, through what we breathe, ingest, touch.
- Physically, through our structure, movement, habits.
When there is an overload of stress on our bodies, one of the first disconnections we see is at the level of the nerve system. As your chiropractors it is our job to analyse your spine find areas of disconnection within the nerve system which controls regulates and maintains every function in your body and correct it so that you can go out and connect to the world.
