In this powerful episode of Kerouac’s Cruising, we sit down with Dr. David Milgram—Flagstaff-based chiropractor, intuitive healer, author, and student of indigenous medicine—to explore the body’s hidden intelligence and our innate power to heal.

Dr. Milgram shares riveting stories from his decades of healing work, including his experiences treating Hopi and Navajo elders, his techniques for brain injury recovery, and the mysticism of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)—which he calls “the body's most intelligent tissue.” We also delve deeply into Hopi prophecies, spiritual alignment, and the call for humanity to return to a sacred way of living.

From the spiritual path to cranial adjustments, from intuition to indigenous wisdom, this episode blends science, story, and soul.

🌿 Topics Covered:

• What cerebrospinal fluid really does—and why it’s the body’s true regulator
• Cranial chiropractic care & healing brain injuries
• How Native American prophecies align with current world events
• The Hopi “Gourd of Ashes” warning & return to spiritual purpose
• Aligning your body, breath, and consciousness for true healing
• Healing a hummingbird (yes, really) with energy & intention

✨ If you’ve ever felt stuck, disconnected, or called toward a different way of living and healing—this episode is for you.

James and Cara share a life-altering journey in From Cancer to New Beginnings: Selling Our Homestead for Idaho. After James’ thyroid cancer suspect in February 2025, confirmed by surgery 10 before this recording, they’re selling their 40-acre Arizona homestead—built with blood, sweat, and off-grid dreams—to move to Idaho near family. The cancer, confined to three thyroid tumors, is treatable, fueling James’ zest to live fully, travel, and be at his grandson’s milestones. Cara reflects on letting go of their homestead for a camper-based life, with plans for a Bullhead City lot and a U.S. loop.

In Hauling Water, Finding Freedom: An Off-Grid Journey, Cara takes you on a water-hauling chore at her Arizona homestead, with Norman and Bella riding co-pilot (Jewels napping at home). Living 25 minutes from the Grand Canyon, Cara hauls 250 gallons from a community station to a 550-gallon cistern, trading city hustle for off-grid freedom. She shares how this “permanent camping” lifestyle—sparked by a deep desire for freedom and a shift from materialism, fueled personal growth and Kerouacs Cruising. A surprise ice cream stop for James’ “Friday” adds heart.

Snow slowed our Arizona homestead, but sparked a powerful pause. In this Episode of Kerouacs Cruising, Cara and James explore finding peace in stillness amidst a “do more, be more” world. From our off-grid home, with Bella, Norman, and Jewels nearby, Cara shares how a month offline and no adventures since February refocused our podcast’s mission: inspiring your authentic truth. Pauses birthed our On the Road book club (27 members strong!) and a major life change we’ll soon reveal. James, craving the road to Idaho, sees value in building habits like reading On the Road and wellness routines. Join us to rethink hustle culture and embrace quiet growth.
