Digital dementia: The tech epidemic of the new millennia.

How overuse of technology results in brain dysfunction and cognitive decline

Digital Dementia is a modern day epidemic resulting in a sensory mismatch in the brain, resulting from overutilization of technology and excessive slouched sitting posture.   Adolescents with Digital Dementia demonstrate a decline in cognition and short term memory loss, symptoms usually associated with dementia seen much later in life.

Your children may be at risk for developing Digital Dementia if they spend hours each day seated in from of screens with slouched posture and little to no movement.  Posture is declining at the rate of technology and modern day children are suffering from it as their brains change with technology.  Learn how to prevent and overcome Digital Dementia and receive important Posture Tech Tips.

Fix it vs. Heal it

A damaged lawn mower needs to be fixed. A torn pants hem may need some mending. Broken people, on the other hand, require healing… and there’s a significant distinction.

Fixing is within the realm of the conscious mind. You can actually assess the damage and make the appropriate repair from experience. And yes, there is some degree of ‘fixing’ in health care (i.e. stitching a cut, or casting a bone).  But the detailed work of making you whole again, happens after hours in the healing process – which is totally managed by a far superior subconscious handyman.

No doctor, physical therapist or chiropractor can heal you from the outside. We can only create an environment around you, supportive of the process. Healing is an inside job best left to the professional inside you.
