Freedom with Chris Brown

Show Notes:Chris Brown represents the principle of Freedom in many ways. He freely expresses himself through his actions, words, and dedication to his craft, often from a place where vulnerably is expertly balanced with Strength and wisdom beyond his years. He holds intention for creation of space in his chiropractic adjustments that is rarely seen coming from students and has the training to back it up. Chris’s level of attunement to the subtle energies and different layers of emotional content in life and within the body is equalled by no one other than the Masters and Living Legends of the healing the arts who he’s learned from. Chris has attended dozens of seminars and workshops and risen as a leader and inspiration to other students all over the country during his time in school. He is a dear friend of ours here at Forager Health. Needless to say we are excited to bring you what we hope is the first of many deep philosophical dives here on Modern Forager Podcast with Chris Brown, DC to-be!Chris on InstagramChris on Facebook@9:54 - Dr. Chris Brown compared to the Fond Stranger@12:17 - DC seminars versus other people’s seminars lol..

Principle 7: Willpower

The truth, the unknowing, meets my truth by way and strength of the Will. The power of the will is equal only to clarity of purpose, removal of interference, awareness of intuition, and fostering of your truest excitement. Your lifeforce. Unison with lifeforce, with intuition, with the truth of truths , and complete surrender to the unknown results of all action fuels the power of will. Untethered from expectation, Willpower, in turn, fuels all action which would come from your truest self. The highest of potential outcomes is one least shrouded in hopeful prediction. All departments collide into perfectly orchestrated chaos. Life accelerated. Life unbridled. Life unexpected; Limitless.

Principle 6: Endurance

This week we take a deep dive into ways we can aim for longevity in the expression of our true selves and highest excitements. We discuss how to overcome the pain teacher, how to be proactive in selecting exposure to life’s physical, mental, and emotional extremes, and how to use the intuition, research, and archetypal role play to remain in alignment with our lifestyle choices over the long term. This is a fun and wide ranging conversation on the philosophy and health benefits of endurance, balance, discipline, voluntary hardship, and pressure testing our beliefs.

Principle 5: Strength

In this week’s episode we discuss the unequivocal and severely underrated importance of Strength. How to build mental strength, how to get strong and use that strength to support everything you do from chasing your dreams to activities of daily living. We need to know why it is important to be strong, not as an afterthought or eventual add-on to our personal development journeys but as part of our foundations in discovering and building who we are.Find an olympic weightlifting club or coach near you:https://www.teamusa.org/usa-weightlifting/clubs-lwc/find-a-clubLearn to powerlift:https://www.youtube.com/c/BarbellLogic/playlistshttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLChXhFLitoHPj-OzQ2oKsAZjMI6uVzbIihttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLChXhFLitoHNvUKbwj-y18OwsY015TSfU
