Dear Practice Members:
To be or not to be. To do or to do not. Choices. Responsibilities. Everything is up to you. Healthcare is funny. It's really no different than anything else, in that it's all about taking responsibility for yourself. For instance, If I was a student in school and I had to take a test, I have a few choices. I could study really hard and get an A, I could study a little and just get by, or I could skip the studying and accept a failure. Whichever path I choose, the outcome is completely up to me. I am the only one responsible for myself.
It's the same with healthcare. If your fairly educated, you understand the basic concepts of health. Eat right, exercise, rest, manage stress, avoid chemical and environmental toxins. Simple stuff. If you have a healthcare coach, (you do, that would be us here in the office), you also know the importance of removing nerve stress from the spine, avoiding drugs, taking vitamins, etc. So, if you have the information stored in your head, what you do with it is completely your responsibility.
As your healthcare coach, we can only get you to the water, you have to take the drink on your own. Your health depends on how healthy you want to be. If you want more nutrition in your life, take your vitamins, if you want to be fitter, exercise, if you want to be calmer and more relaxed, meditate, if you want all of your internal systems and organs working to the best of their ability, remove spinal nerve interference by having your spine checked and adjusted regularly. If you don't want any of these things, it's okay, it's up to you.
Health Tip Of The Week: Celery, the most underated and ignored vegetable. Celery has been shown to lower blood pressure. It acts as a diuretic and anti-inflammatory agent. It also contains stomach soothing compounds similar to cabbage. People with ulcers and digestive problems can benefit by having celery juice. Plus, it has almost zero calories and I have heard your burn more calories chewing and digesting it than the celery actually has.
Video Review: I rented the Italian Job. I never saw the original, but I enjoyed this movie. Good action and devious behaviour. Decent movie.
Rugby Report: Since my last newsletter,
Jokes of The Month:
A very attractive young lady was sitting in a fine restaurant one night.
Waiting for her date as she was, she wanted to make sure everything was perfect. So, as she bends down in her chair to get the mirror from her purse, she accidentally passes gas quite loudly just as the waiter walks up.
Sitting up straight now, embarrassed and red faced, knowing everyone in the place heard her, turns to the waiter and demands "Stop That!"
The waiter looks at her dryly and says "Sure lady, which way was it headed?"
A mother took her little boy to church.
While in church the little boy said, "Mommy, I have to pee."
The mother said to the little boy, "It's not appropriate to say the word 'pee' in church. So, from now on whenever you have to 'pee' just tell me that you have to 'whisper'."
The following Sunday, the little boy went to church with his father and during the service said to his father, "Daddy, I have to whisper."
The Father looked at him and said, "Okay, why don't you whisper in my ear."
That's all for this month. Any comments or questions are appreciated.
