WHAT WE SAW IN THE OFFICE THIS WEEK!

Sometimes the most beautiful things that happen in our office have nothing to do with an adjustment!

This week, two new moms met in our office and started what looks like the beginning of a wonderful friendship.

Two women navigating motherhood, sharing experiences, finding common ground, and realizing they aren't doing this alone.

And THAT is something worth celebrating!

We talk a lot about the importance of a healthy spine, a well-functioning nerve system, and taking care of our physical health.

But what about CONNECTION?

Friendship, laughter, belonging, and having people who understand your journey are just as important to our overall well-being.

Research consistently shows that meaningful social connections support our mental and physical health, help us manage stress, and contribute to healthier, happier lives.

And for new moms, having someone who understands the sleepless nights, the questions, the joys, and the challenges can make ALL the difference.

Because HEALTH is about more than how your body functions. It's also about the people you share your life with.

We LOVE that our office is becoming a place where friendships begin, community grows, and people feel connected.

That's what LIVING FULLY ALIVE is all about!

Your newborn's brain is growing at an extraordinary rate.

And some of the most important things supporting that development are surprisingly SIMPLE.

Being held. Skin-to-skin contact. Hearing your voice. Moving freely. Gentle tummy time. Feeling safe and connected.

These everyday experiences help your baby's developing nerve system learn, organize, and respond to the world around them.

The first 12 weeks aren't about doing MORE. They're about understanding what matters most.

You don't need to entertain your newborn every minute. Sometimes, YOU are exactly what they need.

SWIPE through these 7 simple ways to support your baby's developing brain.

SAVE this for those early newborn days and SHARE it with an expecting or new parent!

WHAT IF THAT NEWBORN REFLEX YOU'RE TRYING TO STOP IS ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING IMPORTANT?

The tiny jerks. The sudden arm movements. The little kicks and stretches that seem to come out of nowhere.

They're not necessarily signs that something is WRONG.

They're part of an incredible process happening inside your baby's developing brain and body. 🤍

During those first weeks of life, your baby's nerve system is learning at an extraordinary pace.

And here's something fascinating:

Movement doesn't just happen because the brain tells the body what to do. Movement also sends information BACK to the brain.

Every wiggle, stretch, and kick provides sensory feedback that helps your baby learn about their body and develop coordination.

And that startle reflex everyone talks about? It's called the Moro reflex, and it's a normal part of early neurological development!

So before assuming every startle needs to be stopped, consider what your baby's body is actually doing.

Learning.
Exploring movement.
Building connections.
Adapting to a brand-new world.

Does this mean swaddling is always wrong? No. Safe swaddling can help soothe some newborns. But babies also need plenty of opportunities to move freely during supervised awake time.

And when swaddling for sleep, always follow safe-sleep guidance, including placing babies on their backs, avoiding weighted swaddles, and stopping swaddling as soon as they show signs of attempting to roll.

Sometimes the most important thing we can do is understand normal development before trying to change it.

SWIPE through to learn why those little movements matter.

Did you know your baby's movements help shape their developing brain?

Morning Musings: What other people think of you is their work.
We have all been there. We have an opportunity we are excited about but it requires life change. We bring it to our friends and family and they shut it down.
Or worse yet, we don’t even talk about it or try it because we worry about’what others will think’.
Again, we have all been ‘the others’. We have all thought unhelpful, discouraging thoughts.
And we have all stopped ourselves from doing something because of ‘the others’.
Let’s collectively start encouraging and lifting up, asking constructive questions, listening before shutting down.
I think we would see a great shift in all facets of life.
