Seeking approval is never healthy for the spine. Either a person is deviating left in the spine, needing male approval, or they are deviating right in the spine needing female approval. Or they may deviate both left and right in the spine, needing both male and female approval. The minute that we go and look for outside approval, we want to make sure that we have observed that person we are seeking approval from approving of themself. If they have not learned to approve of themself, they will not approve of us. Now, the problem comes when we give our best, we look for approval and we don’t get it. Then we think we haven’t done enough, and that is when we start seeing a spine go forward in a curve. And that is when a person becomes more driven, thinking by doing more they will get what they need. And the problem is, it doesn’t matter what they do, it doesn’t matter what they attain, they are seeking something from someone that they cannot receive it from. Meaning that person has not mastered it within self and if we have not mastered it within self, we can’t give it to someone else. Call 562-420-8884 chiroman.com
