Have you ever seen horse blinders? At Mardi Gras time, almost every horse has them. The goal is to keep the horse focused on the path in front…directly in front of the horse. The other goal is to not allow distractions from the people on the outside. Unfortunately, situations on the sides need to be seen.
I’m going to say something that you really need to be ready for. Based on the people who I come into contact on a regular basis….and it matters not which country I am in. I have been in the poorest of countries, and the best of neighborhoods, and I see massive blinding. So here is the blinding that is hurting your health:
The fundamental incorrect belief that you need pills, lotions, and other “stuff” to be healthy.
Let that sink in for a little bit. Then ask yourself whether or not you are happy with your current level of health.
There is a better way. All healing happens inside. You don’t need a thing to be healthy….you just need no interruption to the naturally healthy you.
See www.adjustchiro.com for more information. Take off the blinders now, your health depends on it.
It’s interesting how we change to suit our environment. This inborn ability to adapt and change is seen in animals easily, like when a lizard changes color to suit its background. Our change is not so obvious, however it does happen. When it’s cold outside, for example, our skin texture literally changes. We call it a cute name, like “goose bumps”, however it’s an extraordinary way our body keeps us warm. Another change is when we stay in the water too long, and our hands start to wrinkle up. Imagine if all the water in the bath would just leach into your body! What a massive, terrible effect this would have on your ability to control your inner balance.
To think that some adaptations as these are good, and others are bad, and in need of our intervention constantly amazes me. How do you know what the temperature your body needs to be when fighting a harmful invader to your system? Yet, at the first sign of a “high” temperature, we take our children straight to the emergency room!
I love the fact that I don’t have to know what my temperature needs to be. I also don’t know what my blood pressure should be at any given time. All I need to know is that I have the power to heal. I have a clear nerve system that keeps all my processes of my body functioning perfectly. I just need to not get in the way with thoughts of how the body should and shouldn’t be working. If I can do that, I will be everything I am supposed to be, per my Innate’s discretion.
In gossip, there is always a message. Usually it’s interesting, and hopefully something that the receiver of the message has not heard yet. The speaker of the message usually does not know the entire story, and even as they say it, there is some doubt that the true meaning of what they are saying is probably not 100% accurate, even to themselves.
A poorly functioning nerve system is like gossip. There is a message that is present, however the message is distorted. Just like any communication, it is important to understand the true meaning of the message before any conclusions are drawn, or actions are carried out.
Your brain is the sender. When interruptions are present in the communication between your brain and body, you will not get the proper actions. If those actions involve a healthy immune system, then your body is at a weakened state of defense.
Stop the nerve system gossip by getting your nerve system checked and interference to it removed as often as your chiropractor deems necessary, if true health is a goal of yours.
Routines can be good or bad, as is everything with life. One little change in your normal routine, and the entire habit loop is interrupted. Or even more interesting, the initiator of the routine occurs on the wrong day, wrong time, wrong place, and here you are going through the motions. For example, you wake up to your alarm that was not supposed to be set on Sunday, and start going through the ritual of going to work. How embarrassing, yet relieving that you can just slip back into bed!
Are you just going through the motions, or is it time to re-think your actions to make sure they are creating the type of lifestyle you want? Chances are that right now there are routines in all of our lives that could change for the better.
Who you hang out with has an undeniable effect on what you morph into. We are constantly changing. By this I mean in all aspects. You are not the person that you were at the beginning of this blog. Physically you have already had cells die, and others born to take their place. As you read this blog, your brain is forming new connections, as you start to change the way that you think. You are also possibly recalling past memories to draw similarities to what I am discussing with you right now. Chemically, you are different because your body is acting like a huge pharmacy, constantly releasing and absorbing “drugs” into your body at the right place and time.
So, if we are constantly in a state of flux, then we can determine who we want to change into, by surrounding ourselves with the things that will bring about the person we want to become. One of thees is hanging out with people who add to your life the positive things you wish to attract yourself. This is not an easy thing to do. Many times we tend to hang out with people who are exactly like us. The problem with that, is that there is no growth that can occur. Of course, that scenario would be better than hanging out with someone who has bad habits, and therefore has the potential to bring us down!
So, I guess you have to decide whether you would like to stay the same, grow, or regress.
If you have been following this blog for at least a week, I think you know where I stand. I hang out with people who challenge me, whether that means mentally, spiritually, or physically. I hang out with healthy, happy, and intelligent individuals. I surround myself with those that share my understanding that health comes from within. With that understanding, only great conversations can occur.
