Manage episode 501711467 series 3671278
Welcome to Motherhood Aligned and Assigned with Dr. Serena Coffman and Dr. Veronica Schiltz. This week, we explore the critical and often taboo topic of rest, contrasting the lifestyles of high achievers and those who might feel perpetually lazy. Dr. Veronica shares her personal story of battling high-functioning anxiety and cycles of burnout during her college years. We discuss the importance of rest, not just for survival but for healing, and shed light on how different kinds of nervous system responses impact our perceptions of rest and laziness. Dr. Serena explains how chiropractic care can help recalibrate the nervous system, allowing it to effectively manage stress and improve sleep quality. We also discuss the role of chiropractic care in enhancing overall well-being by targeting neurological soft signs and their impact on everyday life.
