Recently, I have been writing about the late spring portal we have just passed through—encouraging us to take note of what is happening in our lives that may provide seeds for future, long-term unfoldment.
Today, I want to share an unexpected path that has been opening up in my own life, in the trust that it inspires you to look closely at what might be quietly growing in yours.
What is exciting for me right now is a new endeavor related to a remarkable little book I came across entitled The 7 Principles of Purpose by Dr. Chuck Ribley. It was lovingly published by his daughter, Anne Ribley, after he unexpectedly passed away, capturing his lifelong thoughts on what it means to live with true intention.
I met Anne at Life University’s Homecoming in 2024 and noticed the book she was sharing there. I was immediately struck by the title, and upon reading it, I became completely enamored. I was struck by how beautifully the book encapsulates the “Big Idea” of Chiropractic—operating from Above Down, Inside Out. I instantly sensed this would be a profound catalyst to re-inspire chiropractors in their sacred work, while equally serving as a powerful guide for anyone seeking a more meaningful life.
I kept a vision in my mind to touch base with Anne about an idea: creating an experiential program where both Doctors of Chiropractic and the general public could dive deeply into these principles to cultivate a greater sense of alignment. I call it: Knowing the 7 Principles of Purpose.
As the path unfolded this past late spring, I had the opportunity to share this vision with Anne, and she looked upon it very favorably. Then, during our recent Conscious (Y)Elder Leadership session, I was honored to have Anne join us to introduce the book firsthand right after I shared an overview.
I want to share the video of that introduction with you today, which you may appreciate: https://youtu.be/ZihZ-MfearE
If this may be of interest to you, please let me know.
I appreciate sharing my unforeseen path happening in my life that it may serve for you to appreciate what is happening in your life.
Let’s let our summer continue to bear fruit.
For Our Greater Health,
Dr. Steve
