What if we took for granted the most precious of gifts?
It is very EASY to get bogged down in the day-to-day requirements of living in a world that moves faster every day. Usually, there are time crunches that require us to focus on minute details, and it is necessary to realize the purpose of all the work.
This video shows the exact moment a sperm unites with an egg. The bigger the spark, the healthier the organism. So, maybe realizing that there was a fireworks display at your birth, should help you understand that your life was a gift…now unwrap it.
My blogs often consist of ways to improve ourselves. I feel, however, that I have possibly missed out on celebrating successes as well. Take the time in life to celebrate, after all life is rather quick.
To get healthier, you have to get rid of unhealthy habits. I know it sounds simple, but stay with me for 2 minutes on this important, simplistic truth.
A lot of diets, and “strategies” to lose weight or to clean up your health do not utilize the most important factor in becoming healthy:
You must let go of bad habits and poor tendencies, in order to create a healthier life.
Why do most strategies not embrace this simple truth? It’s not sexy. Yep, it’s not really that interesting, it isn’t flashy, and it would be easier to try to sell you a “miracle” pill.
Listen, it comes down to this:
You were made for a healthy existence. Therefore, if you are not healthy, then something is in the way.
Chances are, you do not need a magic pill, a potion, or a fat burning capsule. The health you desire also desires you. Your good health is constantly striving to be realized within you. The natural tendency to the human existence is health.
Remove the interruptions to this natural, normal healthy state, and experience what you are meant to experience.
All to often, I notice that the mind is neglected. The part of our human experience that deciphers our surroundings is not to be taken lightly.
I believe that your mind can determine your life experience. I have met people that live in very similar environments. One is happy, and one is sad. It is all determined by their very own mind.
It all boils down to a decision: “Do you train your mind, or do you allow it to be influenced by outside sources?”
One of the worst decisions I can possibly make when eating breakfast is turn on the news. Stories of wars, poverty, viruses. Wouldn’t it be a better use of time to have a conversation with my wife and son? This is how you can train your mind. Use it properly, and it will become an asset, not a liability.
I returned from a small town in Nicaragua this week. There were many things that were quite a bit different than our usual day-to-day routines. However, I would like to talk about one in particular: toilet paper (TP).
TP is such a simple product. Near everywhere you travel, you will see TP. Sometimes TP is rough, sometimes it is soft. Sometimes it is thick, and sometimes you find it thin. Sometimes perforated, others a continuous roll.
One thing is for certain with TP:
Once you get use to a certain quality, it is near impossible to be satisfied with an inferior experience.
Health can be thought of in a similar fashion. When you experience the results of a quality chiropractic adjustment, your quality of life changes for the better. Your health simply deserves to function without interruption from a subluxation. When a quality adjustment is given, a subluxation clears, and quality of life instantly changes. Why would anyone want a lower quality of life?
