Manage episode 261318492 series 2653404
James “Jim” Deegan has grown up more than half of his Life learning directly from his mentor, Dr. Arno Burnier since 1995. He has been staff at Burnier’s seminars for 20+ years on this “Path of Mastery.” He practices in Smyrna, GA, which is close to Life University where he loves mentoring chiropractic students, other chiropractors and adjusting and caring for his own clients, which Jim refers to as “precious peeps” (people) in the Atlanta area. His heart of service comes out of a “near-death experience and a quantum leap through this Life-changing experience in 1994." This led him to “The Path of Mastery” from a potential medical Heart transplant list to a Chiropractic experience of self-discovery. Other teachers and mentors emerged such as Reggie Gold, Joesph Strauss, Pasquale, Paul Bragg and many other direct and indirect vitalistic visionaries.
Jim desires to continually serve to elevate The Chiropractic profession and the World by Leading others to discover their inborn gifts. No one can facilitate healing Alone - he subscribes to this motto, “better together” when it comes to healing.
Jim’s courageous way of navigating through his crisis and the healing journey that parallelled it is a must-listen. He drops wisdom to parents, to people in crisis, to people who are in a toxic relationship and hurting, and he especially speaks in a life-giving way that will want you to hear more and more. He is an example warrior of everyone who wants to find more peace, ease, and ALIVE-ness in their life. Dr. Jim has been a chiropractor for over 22 years, he teaches professional chiropractic adjusting seminars and is a rockstar husband and dad of 3 children.
