Learn for Life

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 course just for the fun of learning.

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 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 sofa, 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!

 Dr. Daryl Asks some important questions of interest to New York residents - Chiropractor New York Dr. Daryl Asks...

How could a child benefit from chiropractic?
Regardless of our age, each of us in New York encounters physical, chemical and emotional stresses that exceed our ability to handle. For newborns, it could be the trauma encountered at birth. For toddlers it could be from learning to walk or ride a bike. Many of the problems we chiropractors see in adults are the result of neglected traumas from childhood.
Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our New York chiropractic practice.
