“Words have the power to destroy or heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change the world." - Jack Kornfield.

Heading into the weekend, make it a daily practice to notice the words you use. See if they pass the test of being both true and kind. Be mindful of things you say just out of habit. Can you improve your speech in a way that affects others in a more positive way? Giving kindness affects the giver as much as the receiver.

With a little daily mindful effort, we make ourselves and our world a better place. #UWSLife #MindfulnessMinute ... See MoreSee Less

University of Western States shared American Chiropractic Association's post.

“Chiropractors have become valued members of the military health care team. Their non-drug, non-addictive and noninvasive approach to pain management is particularly relevant today for military personnel who wish to avoid the risk of addiction from prescription opioid pain medications,” said ACA President N. Ray Tuck, Jr., DC. “This latest legislation would ensure that military retirees as well as members of the National Guard and Reserve utilizing the TRICARE system continue to have access to the same quality chiropractic care for their pain.”A bill introduced yesterday in the U.S. Senate and supported by ACA would expand access to chiropractic services to military retirees as well as members of the National Guard and Reserve through the Department of Defense TRICARE health program.
