Wellness Topics The Value of Continuing Education

Ever think about enrolling in a course at a local college just for the sheer joy of learning something new? There is something to be said for one’s personal pursuit for knowledge, with no other motivation than just to tickle your brain cells and expand your mind. But it often takes some doing to convince some people to enroll in a non-credit course just for the fun of learning.

Take a course of study for the fun of it!

These days, most people are acutely aware of the benefits of a college education. Careers, life choices, income – all depend on formal preparedness for a competitive national and global workforce. But what happens after formal college learning is done? Is your post-college education limited to television and radio and in newspapers, stimulating conversation with peers, career trade journals, or reading the latest non-fiction masterpiece? Or is there something more?

A local community college may offer courses that can broaden your horizons and expand your personal awareness, such as:

  • Digital Photography Basics
  • Decorate (Or Dress) For Success
  • Pet First Aid
  • Learn to Draw Basics
  • Become a Human Lie Detector
  • Introduction Sign Language
  • Activate Your Ability to Become a Healer
  • How to Rollerblade

And the list goes on and on. The point is to identify something you’re interested in learning more about and go out and do it! To learn something new, you have to get up off the couch, and who knows, you may meet like-minded people and make new friends! Sounds like a win-win situation all around – for you and your brain!

What causes subluxations?
Chiropractors acknowledge three types of stress: physical, chemical and emotional. When the adaptive capacity of your body is compromised, weakened areas along the spine can become involved. Muscles tighten, spinal joints lock up and nearby nerves are affected. The purpose of chiropractic care is to find these areas and restore balance, alignment and motion.
