You Can Kick the Trich!

After over 24 years of pulling, I’ve managed to stop (pull free three years); but it has required a massive lifestyle change. Please read my letter to you all, I hope it helps!  http://www.bewellnsb.com/Letter%20to%20Trichsters.pdf

 Resources:

Here’s a list of resources that have been paramount in helping me. There’s

nothing I’ve done that you can’t do; focus your energy on the PROCESS of

overcoming rather than the desired outcome. You can take control and live a life

FREE of Trichotillomania.

Start with you and your family! The first book I read (and then asked my mother to

read) was “Why Won't My Child Stop Hair Pulling” by Abby Rohrer. You and your

closest family members need to read this book. (Lots of tears here but keep an

open mind and stick to the process).

If you are a video person, I’ve put together a video library that should help you

get a better understanding of how powerful Chiropractic care can be when

combined with lifestyle change.

If you are anything like me, then you are extremely analytical. Read Dr. James

Chestnut’s books! He is an expert in Wellness and without his insight on the

importance of how we eat, move and think and the pier-reviewed evidence he

provides explaining how deficient we all are in Proprioception and the help of my

wonderful wife, I would have never been able to put this all together. Chiropractic

can help us get closer to wholeness and it has been instrumental in allowing me

to drive progress toward being finally free.

Nathaniel Branden’s “The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem” has been

instrumental in helping me find the strength to go through this

process.

Don Miguel Ruiz “The Four Agreements” has also been a huge personal help.

(Something I’ve noticed since returning to school) If you are currently in

school and have trouble concentrating or keeping up with notes. Try changing

the paper you use and the writing utensils. Try using Mead Acade’mie Sketch

Books for paper they have no lines on the page and the paper is thicker and has

texture. When you take notes, try using Crayola Twistable Colored Pencils (no

sharpening) to accent your notes. I love the way it feels writing with them on that

paper. Be weird, it’s okay. Much love, Christian
