In this potent and deeply philosophical episode, Dr. Fred and Dr. FJ Schofield dive into Principle 8: The Function of Intelligence, the chiropractic truth that the body’s innate intelligence creates force and drives healing. But here's the catch: healing requires one of the hardest things for patients (and sometimes even doctors) to give, trust.
From BJ Palmer’s Green Books to the pain of post-op recovery without medication, this conversation gets real. You’ll hear personal stories that underscore the difference between pain management and healing, and how forcing outcomes can sabotage transformation, in health, in business, and in life.
Listen in to discover:
-
Why trust is the missing link in most healing journeys
-
The physiological power of slow breathing (and the tortoise’s secret to longevity)
-
Why forcing results, in health or success, never works
-
What restorative physiology actually means and how to teach it in practice
-
The trap of "below average care" and how to rise above it
“There is no man-made substance that can equate to the natural function of intelligence through your physiology.”
Whether you’re working on restoring health in your patients, growing your adjusting certainty, or deepening your own faith in the process — this episode calls you back to the foundations of chiropractic and the timeless wisdom of innate intelligence.
If this episode resonated with you, share it with a fellow chiropractor and subscribe so you don’t miss future insights. And remember…
You don’t need to push harder, you need to reconnect with the principle that started it all.
Because when you stand in certainty, patients feel it. And when they trust you, they trust the process.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
