The Role of Energy in Health and Wellness

Dr RoseFeeling sluggish? Tired of drinking copious amounts of coffee just to make it through your workday? If you’re like most people, you’d like to have more energy. Our energy levels play a pivotal role in how we perceive life, manage stress, and connect with others.

According to chiropractor Dr. Rose Anne Mulligan, energy is fundamental to our mental, emotional, and physical well-being. She explains that when we are “energy poor,” it affects everything from our posture to our relationships and even our overall outlook on life.

“We are energetic beings,” says Dr. Rose. “Energy flows through our nervous system and animates and coordinates every aspect of our physical, mental, and emotional capacity.”

Recognizing the Impact of Defensive Posture

Tillery-Street-MarketOne of the physical manifestations of low energy is what Dr. Rose refers to as “defense physiology.” This state often appears when the body feels stressed or vulnerable, resulting in a posture with a forward-leaning head, rounded shoulders, and a tucked tailbone. “It’s a defensive posturing of protection, which means we experience the world almost as a victim,” Dr. Rose notes.

According to her, we perceive our world as such that everything is against us, as opposed to everything for us, or our nervous system is going to be downregulated and disrupted. As a result, our physical health may also be disrupted and dysregulated.

“That will affect how we interact with each other. If we’re in a defensive situation, we are not going to be open for what is the highest level of communication with our partner, with our colleagues, with our children, and with our community,” shares Dr. Rose.

Ways to Boost Energy and Elevate Your Life

Dr. Rose emphasizes the importance of activities that uplift our energy. Small changes are incredibly helpful; these include going for a walk, meditating, or simply disconnecting from our digital devices or stepping away from the TV.

Engaging in enjoyable activities like listening to music or inspiring podcasts, spending time with loved ones, or practicing gratitude can also help improve our energy levels and overall outlook. These simple habits make it easier to respond to life’s challenges with a more positive perspective.

In her practice, Dr. Rose uses NetworkSpinal® and Somato Respiratory Integration to help clients increase their energy availability, allowing for more fulfilling relationships and a healthier body. While her methods are incredibly effective, she also encourages people to find additional practices that resonate with them, such as making mindful food choices, moving more, or engaging in spiritual or grounding practices.
