Dear Patient and Friend,
Most of us want to be as healthy as possible – it’s inconvenient and uncomfortable to be sick, and no one has the time for bed rest or the stomach for unnecessary suffering.
It’s unavoidable to get sick or be injured every now and then, but there are specific steps you can take to minimize your chances of illness, and most of them are simple and reasonable.
Here’s the way it works. There are three kinds of stress that cause us to get sick – there’s chemical stress, like pollution in our air and water, poisonous substances in products we use, or additives to our foods and beverages; there’s physical stress, like injuries, misalignment or wear and tear; and finally, there’s emotional stress, like problems with work, family, finances, or health.
It’s not likely you’ll be able to eliminate all these stresses, but you can help yourself cope better chemically, physically and emotionally so you heal quicker from whatever health challenges you might face.
The secret to being healthy is in building up your resources so you get sick less often and get better faster when you do. Clean up your dietary indiscretions and eat wholesome healthy foods, pursue stress reduction through meditation, massage, yoga or exercise, and improve your physical balance and strength by seeing your chiropractor, for care and advice.
It takes a little knowledge, a little flexibility, and a little determination to be healthy, but the payoff is increased longevity and a better quality of life.
