Are You Willing to Go the Distance?

I recently finished the Country Music Marathon in Nashville Tennessee.  I've learned that running that far is really a battle of will more than a battle of physical endurance.  Repeatedly motivating yourself is what keeps you going.  If you decide to stop running, starting again can feel almost impossible. 

I bring this up, because I'm also learning that life feels like a marathon.  In life, if you keep moving forward, and hopefully in a positive direction, you find yourself achieving your goals and feeling happy.  Like the aid stations in a marathon, classes, seminars, nutritional supplements, books, and coaching can help you on life's journey.  But the biggest factor, I've realized, is simply to keep moving, to keep moving forward.  A wise, older member of my family likes to say, "Do something, anything, even if it's wrong."  Of course we don't want to do something wrong, but I think the lesson is that the chance of doing something wrong is so much less than the harm that's done by doing nothing at all.  What's important is to do something, to create energy, to keep moving toward that goal. 

I recently met with several members of Morter Health Systems at an Elite Mastery Seminar.  I heard a common phase during the three days we met together, "I'm planning on...." It struck me that we all spend a lot of time "planning."  If we have the plan, shouldn't we spend less time revising, talking or mulling it over and more time doing?  Just as planning and training are important to a marathon, sooner or later it's time to line up and run!

I encourage you to wrap up your plan on your next goal and take some action steps.  If your goal is to feel more energy, spend more time on yourself, walk a 5K, better manage your money, feel closer to a family member or sleep better, you can quickly devise a plan and then take one or two action steps.  "Log some miles" as runners say. 

Ask yourself, "What can I do right now to move myself closer to my chief aim?" Take an action step today.  Get moving on your path to be a better you, a person of action.  I would love to support you in your actions, so please email me today at jenningschiropractic@yahoo.com and share your progress or ask questions.  Progress is what it's all about.  It's not a race, it's a run, and we're in it together. 

Meet Jennings County Chiropractic

I recently bought a car that has a tire pressure warning light. When one of my tires gets too low, a light comes on, and I know to check the tires. Once, I found a nail in one of the tires. Most of the time though, one of the tires just needs some extra air pressure. In the short time that I have owned the car, it surprises me how often I need to add air to one or more of the tires. This got me thinking about how often I must have been driving on under inflated tires in my previous vehicles. Now, I am thankful to have that indicator light to get maximum fuel economy and tire wear.  

 

What does tire pressure have to do with balance in your life?  It’s the lesson that I learned from this experience. I now wonder how often I am out of balance and do I have a standard to check if I’m in balance? It is hard to get balanced, if you have no criteria to get there.

 

How often have you felt “pretty good” then you get a Bio Energy Synchronization Technique (B.E.S.T.) treatment at Jennings County Chiropractic and afterward you feel great! For me, this happens most of the time! That is the power of what we do.  We can help a person feeling good, feel even better. My ideal practice member is a person who wants to get balanced and stay as balanced as possible.  

 

But, how do you really know that you are balanced? That is the BIG question on my mind! Do you just go by how you feel? No, that doesn’t work because your body is designed to compensate for all of its imbalances. So, you could be feeling good and still be out of balance. Should you just wait until something goes wrong and fix it? Well, that is the current medical model, and it’s failing.  We spend more on health care than any other county, and we are still one of the unhealthiest populations on Earth. I think you get the picture, there needs to be a better way to check in on our health and wellbeing.

 

The good news is that there is an awesome, non-invasive, short test that can do just that. It checks in on your health so that you can get balanced and maintain balance in your life. How do you know if your current lifestyle is working, if you do not have a measuring stick?  We don’t have warning lights on our bodies, but we do have many indications that we can check to monitor our health progress or decline.

 

A tool that I have found to have profound benefits for you is the CardioWave Analysis. In a short 3-5 minute test you can monitor: heart rate, heart rate variability, abnormal heart beats, mental stress, physical stress, stress resistance, autonomic nervous system balance, blood flow, arterial elasticity, heart contraction, overall health status, endocrine system balance and electrical energy flow of the body. With all of this information, you have a great tool to monitor progress, lack of progress, or decline in your health. This is important information to know!

 

There are many potential benefits of the CardioWave Analysis. You will be surprised at the findings and potential benefits.  Call Lisa at 812.346.4181 to schedule your CardioWave Analysis.
