Greetings!
Isn't it amazing how everything is always changing? And aren't we thankful for that? I know I am. I love knowing that every single day I get to choose whether I want to get a little bit stronger or a little bit weaker. I love knowing that I don't have to stay the same. The things that I like about myself can always get better and the things that I don't necessarily care much for can always change and always improve. I find such hope in the knowledge that tomorrow doesn't have to be a repeat of today. The choices that I make TODAY, determine how tomorrow is going to go. Here's to always growing, always improving, and to get a little bit stronger and healthier everyday! Dr. Jodi P.S. Join us for our "Love Your Back" Wellness Workshop to learn some practical tips & tools that will help in your quest for improvement and growth. |

Everything Is A Process
There is one thing that everyone must understand and once you gain this understanding, life becomes a little less mysterious. Here it is, ready? Everything is a process. There, it's just that simple. Everything is a process and everything is always changing. Don't believe me? Just look around you and observe nature. We have seasons, growth, death, birth, erosion, etc. Everything is changing and nothing stays the same.
The same is true of our bodies. We are made of trillions of cells, all performing thousands of functions at any given moment. So, it is absolutely impossible for us to be the same from minute to minute, much less day to day and year to year. In fact, every 9 to 13 months you have a whole new body and all of your trillions of cells have been replaced at least once, if not numerous times.
There are basically two processes that are taking place in our bodies; the process of growth and the process of death. Both processes are always occurring, but the goal is to have a net total of more growth than death at the end of the day. When it is all said and done, we want to grow more than we die, don't we? We want to get a little bit stronger and healthier everyday instead of a little bit weaker and sicker.
So, how do we do that? How do we make sure that we get stronger instead of weaker? How do we make sure that we grow more than we die? Well, three things are necessary for that to happen.
1. A positive and deliberate focus - We must train our minds to focus on the life that we want to create, not the life that we want to avoid. We cannot escape what we give our attention to, so make sure you are giving your attention to what you WANT, not what you DON'T want. 2. A healthy lifestyle - Making healthy lifestyle choices is tantamount to experiencing more growth than death. We must supply our bodies with good, solid building blocks with which it can build. We simply cannot get stronger and healthier everyday if we ignore our body's need for plenty of water, nourishing, healthy foods, and ample movement/exercise. Starting today, decide to make your lifestyle a little bit healthier. Replace a soda with a glass of water, go for a 15 minute walk, choose raw almonds or some veggies for an afternoon snack instead of the usual chips or candy. You don't have to make a drastic change all at once in order to experience the benefits. Step by step, little by little you can improve your life. 3. A clear neurological CONNECTION - It is absolutely imperative that if you want to get stronger instead of weaker everyday, you MUST have a clear neurological connection between your brain and your body. Your brain and nerve system control every single tissue, organ and cell in your body. What's more, each one of those trillions of cells is in constant communication with your brain. Without clear communication between your brain and your body, your body cannot comprehend and effectively respond to it's environment. You can't adapt to what is going on around you and within you. Basically, without a clear connection, your body can't work as well as it should. And, because of the intimate relationship between your spine and your nerve system (specifically your spinal cord), if your spine loses it's proper alignment and function, you partially lose this vital brain-body CONNECTION. However, once you are able to restore the proper alignment and function of your spine, through chiropractic adjustments, your body can re-establish a clear neurological connection and you can resume getting stronger and healthier everyday.
So, no matter where you may fall on the spectrum above (whether you are experiencing dis-ease or sickness, or health/ease, or even wellness) remember that everything is a process and you are always moving in one direction or the other. Make sure you are moving in the direction that will bring you closer to wholeness. We can help! |
