I want to extend a deep, personal thank you to everyone who reached out with such kind words and shared experiences after my last post about Katniss. Coming home to a quiet house without her has been a big adjustment, but we are doing our best to focus on the good memories. Your kind notes have been a huge comfort to both Carol and myself.
On the professional side of life, I am incredibly proud to share a major milestone that has been in the works for quite some time.
The book project I collaborated on with Dr. Tony Palombo is officially live on Amazon: Above Down Inside Out: The Spiritual Foundations of Chiropractic, Its Evolution and Role in the World.

When Tony first shared his concept for this book, it lit a fire in me. In his text, he beautifully captures the sacred roots of vitalistic healing. As we talked through his vision, I offered a few thoughts on how this “Big Idea” has evolved across generations to meet the modern world—and we wove those perspectives directly into Part 2 of the book.
This part of the book maps out the three distinct phases of this healing art:
- Phase 1: The Physical Foundation – Rooted in D.D. Palmer’s truth that life is the expression of Tone—the normal, vibrant tension and elasticity of the nervous system.
- Phase 2: The Mental Awakening – B.J. Palmer’s work, which awakened the world to Innate Intelligence—the eternal essence within everyone looking to find release.
- Phase 3: Innate Expression – Inspired by pioneers like Dr. Bill Bahan, focusing on the unhindered expression of your unique life essence to live a fulfilling life.
Navigating the “Internal Concussion of Forces”
The book also dives into what we call the “internal concussion of forces”—the friction that happens when our outer mind is in conflict with our inner Innate Intelligence. This internal disconnect creates the very patterns of tension and subluxation that lead to chronic dis-ease and overstimulation.
Whether we are navigating physical daily stressors or deep mental overstimulation, true well-being means clearing those blockages so our life essence can flow freely.
This book is a practical guide to help you return to a state of qualitative well-being. If you are ready to explore this vital philosophy, I invite you to purchase a copy and consider sharing it with a friend.
Next week, I’ll share a beautiful lesson from my mentor on how to practically apply this so life stops slipping away.
For Our Greater Health,
Dr. Steve
