We worked on the heart for the last 2 weeks and I wanted to talk briefly about a few of my observations of recent.
First of all, my life is going by at a warp speed lately. I am trying to hold onto the memories and rehash everything
that has occurred for me over the last nearly 6 years that we have had the Chiropractic Wellness Center. We have had
the office for nearly 6 years and much has happened in that short, but long time. I began this 'quest' by meeting
my husband back in 2002, we married in 2003 and we had to quick jot off and get married because we were opening his Caro office
and didn't have much time for honeymooning. I had just been let go from my job at Ford, due to 9/11, tire recalls
and ignition recalls. I was scared and nervous, but I figured I had nothing to loose by helping my new husband out.
Shortly after getting Caro up and running I went back to work for OnStar. I had a 6-month contract to get their website
converted over to a new platform and do some fancy back-end database configuring. I was about to end the contract and
my husband called and said that he had just had an idea that we could start another office with the equity from the sale of
my house. He told me this amazing story about how he had gone for a drive and a man was just putting out a "FOR
LEASE" sign and he wrote the number down and went to call to make an appointment to see it and when doing so all the
power went out in the house and the phone rang and no one was there. He looked at the called display and it was his
dad's name. His dad died 3 years prior, but his mom had not changed the name with the phone company. He tried
to get the display off the screen and it was the only one there. The power came back on and the name disappeared and
never even showed in the list of callers. He told me that this must have been a sign. He thought his dad was telling
him to go ahead and do this. So, we made an appointment and a few months later leased the space. It's been
nearly 6 years now and many things have transpired to confirm to us that the space was calling to us to be there. I
could spend days (actually I have pages and pages in my journal) talking about the gifts the home, the community, and the
staff have given to us.
The sadness I feel leaving this old farm house is great! I am very connected to
the space and I love the area! I am connected to the house in more ways than I can tell you... I will share personally
if you like later... Anyway, I have been dealing with issues of the heart because I originally felt I was letting people
down that I was leaving, but then I realized that to be a truly spiritual being you must give in to the thought that you are
in control of everything. None of us are in control of anything...REALLY! We just think we are! We can be
responsible and go to work and loose our jobs, we can love our spouse and find they want a divorce, we can be a good person,
but nothing seems to go the way we planned... we just need to surrender it over to become a truly spiritual being! I
have struggled with this since we have decided to sell our office because of all the signs that were there in the beginning
and then I remembered all the wonderful things that happened over the last nearly 6 years! For several years now I realized
that if I just listened to what the old house was telling me and listened to the direction I was given spiritually - I would
have found that I was a healer! I found that by giving in and not going back to what I thought my career was (in the
auto industry) that I found my true self! I am eternally grateful for all of my guidance and all the conversations shared
with the many people that have stepped into the clinic to show me who I am! You are all my guides and teachers and for
that I am eternally (I MEAN ETERNALLY) grateful! THANK YOU!
So, with all this being said... I wanted to share
with you that now that I have realized I am a healer and I have found myself - I mean truly found myself - I want to help
you all find what I have found! I want to share with you what I have learned. I have learned much over the last 6 years,
but what I have learned over the last 2 weeks is that this is only a new beginning! This is surely not the end!
I have realized that I could spend years (as long as my body would allow me) doing massage and treating my clients this way,
but I guess it's time for my next level and my client's next level! When I work as your healer in the form of
a Massage Therapisty ou come to me for healing, but some times forget about your abilities to be your own healer... or maybe
you never even knew you could be your own healer! Now, with the yoga you can find your way (maybe with a little guidance
on my part) to your own healing! This is just our next level!
What is amazing to me is how this transition
has affected me. While I have allowed myself to open up the space for your healing I have done my own healing!
I have realized this last 2 weeks how connected we all really are. We really are all one! I am on a mission to
help many people find empowerment and enlightenment and thank you all for continuing to help me secure and find mine!
We will all be great together in our new space and with our new community! :-)
We have sold the Chiropractic Wellness Center of Metamora and Dr. Bob and I will no longer be there. We are sad to
be leaving our practice and the warm and loving community that has supported us over the last 6 years and we say THANK YOU!!!
But, there is light at the end of the tunnel...
Today I am writing to let you know that Nicole's center will be
up and running (officially) starting the week of August 4th. All yoga is drop-in and all other appointments can
be scheduled with Nancy at the front desk prior to the center being up and running. Please note - there will be no chiropractic
in the new space. Although, we would appreciate that you continue to support the Chiropractic Wellness Center and staff!
We look forward to seeing you in the new space!
