Well, where to start? It is always such an inspiring weekend when we go to the Maximized Living training. I think the biggest question going into the day was what would I make my staff do? Many of you had been hearing the stories of a couple years ago when I took the staff to Orlando for the Max Living conference (we should be there twice a year on average). So what in the world is a Maximized Living conference?
A collaboration of a group of chiropractors, who like me, believe that the key to saving the planet, is to first save the planets health. To follow God’s plan to gain the highest level of function possible. Because ultimately, if we are to do God’s will, His good and perfect will, we need to be in the state: closest to His plan. When we come together as a group of like minded professionals, and we discuss the stories of healing, and the different directions to get there, it is simply amazing.
My time in my own office is enough to amaze me. I wish all of you could have been there for all the stories over the years. The seizures that have ended, the women who have gotten pregnant when they were told they couldn’t, the cancer that was reversed when it was said to be impossible. The endless pages of people off their thyroid meds, their blood pressure meds, their anti-depressants. It is really awesome to be such a unique little part of God’s huge plan.
Well, back to the opening paragraph. The stories from the last one we went to, are true… yet sometimes sensationalized, not to unlike someone telling the story of spotting Big Foot in the woods… obviously something happened, but was it exactly what they think? So that is how I “spin” the workout from 2012.
We were driving home, and we stopped and grabbed a bite to eat. After which, and the time to simply get out of there, we had an ETA of close to 3AM. But…. I wanted to do some team building. So at nearly 3AM, I alerted my sleepy (and most were waking up from sleeping) staff, that we were heading to the gym. The Garage to be exact.
Well, the results were awesome. Angel was pleased that she had found a new level of drive, Dr. Levi was astounded that he could be so slow moving, and Loree simply wanted to kill me. We worked hard, and eventually, everyone was a little stronger because of it.
Well, I know they were curious what I might have in store for them this year. So as I racked my brain on Saturday, getting ready for the drive, I kept coming back to the notion of roadside burpees. So even though we didn’t do them exactly roadside, we did do burpees, and we did them with purpose. Which was the goal.
Now, you might wonder, why do I make my staff work out (this year, as you can see in the video, it was actually only 10:15pm) on our way home from these conferences? Well. Simply to push ourselves when we think pushing needs to be over. And this is why.
The world is hurting. The world is dying prematurely. People are being barbarically hurt by medications that should not be on the market. I would argue that nearly 60% of the medications on the market NEVER have a place.
This message is tiring. We are working against more marketing, more dollars that are indoctrinating (med school grants, scholarship funds, etc), and more cultural push than any other wrong perpetrated on a people, that I can see historically. The sheer dollars supporting the expansion of meds is incredible. If we are to be successful in our mission, we need to do be successful in our training. Because we need to be strong. Stronger than the next person who comes by preaching the cultural way. I appreciate you, please take this moment to think about someone who we could help. Now reach out and invite them… tonight is the intro (Foundations I) to the 60 Day Turnaround.
Be Well and Be Blessed! – Dr. E
