Discipline & A Healthy Life
“Discipline is getting yourself to do something you don’t necessarily want to do to achieve a result you really want to get.” – Andy Andrews
Most people want to be healthy, want to feel good, want to function well and live a long life. This does not happen by accident. The healthiest and happiest people on the outside have usually done a lot of work on the inside or in private to achieve this goal.
The discipline it takes to be healthy requires healthy choices done consistently for a long time. If you are currently unhealthy or have bad habits many of these choices are not easy at first. Discipline requires that we develop habits, good habits, which we rely on to give us the best opportunity to have a healthy state of being.
If we can discipline ourselves and take responsibility for our lives and we practice this discipline with healthy choices, good habits will become our lifestyle, freeing us to live unencumbered by illness or injury where we enjoy the quality of life we deserve.
In regards to physical health, we should all become disciplined in the areas of exercise, nutrition, rest and protecting our spine and nervous system through Chiropractic Lifestyle Care. How are your habits? Are your disciplines healthy? Good habits require discipline that, when put in place, are easy to live with.
Bad habits develop when you are not conscious, not responsible and do not discipline yourself. Bad habits may seem easy at first but they are very hard to live with.
When you are in a health crisis and suffering from a situation that requires your utmost attention, you are likely to be motivated to reclaim your health.
You will usually do whatever is required and are more likely to be disciplined to get the result you want. However, as you become stable and relief has been achieved, do you make the critical transition to change your lifestyle? Do you continue on the path to achieve optimum health and peak performance levels?
Exercise, nutrition, rest, good posture and having your spine checked for nerve interference and proper function are the disciplines of many top performers in sports, entertainment and in the board room as well. Top performers are disciplined and make chiropractic care part of the health disciplines they practice regularly so their nervous system can function properly, which is vital to good health.
As it says in The 100 Year Lifestyle, “Learn to love the things that are good for you.” By being disciplined today and every day you are more likely to enjoy a longer, healthier life.
See you at your next appointment.

The Ultimate Health Care Technology
This is a great article published by “The 100 Year Lifestyle” about an amazing machine that we all possess.
The Ultimate Health Care Technology requires no batteries or electricity of any kind. It adapts to changes in weather, food intake, stress levels, and work habits. It also adapts to changes in your environment and the intensity of your physical training and exercise. You can direct it to perform at the highest level possible with your choices. This Ultimate Health Care Technology is inside you. It is your Innate Intelligence.
You have, within you, an Innate Intelligence. Present from the moment you were conceived, this intelligence grew you from 1 cell into over 80 quadrillion cells that were organized and specialized to keep you healthy and functioning at your highest level throughout your lifetime.
This Innate Intelligence guides the processes in your body that turn food into cells, eliminate waste products, coordinate muscle contraction and communicates with or without your conscious thought to every cell, tissue and organ of your body via your nervous system.
As long as there is no interference to this system, you have the capability to heal, feel great, be healthy and function well for a lifetime. Nurture this Intelligence for the development of your human potential and you will set personal records in all areas of your life. Unfortunately, there can be interference to the communication and expression of this intelligence within your body.
Or, this interference can lie dormant and asymptomatic for decades, leading to severe health conditions, chronic pain, deterioration and disease down the road.
Nerve Interference in the spine is called a vertebral subluxation. Lifestyle Interference is a result of poor health habits such as overeating, poor nutrition, excessive drinking, taking prescription or non-prescription drugs, or sitting too much.
Environmental Interference is caused by toxicity from air, food, water, or chemicals, as well as accidents or natural disasters. All three types of interference can cause pressure in your spine and nervous system and affect your health on every level.
Using a variety of techniques, chiropractors will work to remove this interference from your body so that you can heal quickly, stabilize, regenerate and achieve optimum health and peak performance levels for a lifetime.
To help you maximize your ability to heal from an injury, pain or health problem, to identify underlying conditions that you may not feel yet, or to achieve optimum health and peak performance levels, schedule your appointment today.
Everyone deserves to be healthy and express their full potential from the time they are born through their last breath of life. This includes you!
