Do you notice the hum in the air? Maybe you can’t really hear it, but can you feel it? Can you feel the vibration? The “vibrations” around us are not mysterious at all; they are the result of life in motion. The only thing that is a constant in life is “change.” Change occurs faster and faster, and sometimes we can feel overwhelmed from the pace.
A generation or two ago, grandparents used to complain about too much change. They do not complain about the changes themselves, they complain about the speed of the changes. Younger people and children are the ones who seem immune to the acceleration of change. Those who shop for groceries know that evidence of change can be seen at the supermarket. Try to find a cereal you purchased last week. You probably won’t find it because it has already been replaced by a low-carb, low sugar version.
In spite of the rate of change in many areas of the human experience, some things never change. For example, we all want to succeed. We don’t frequently change our life goals of health, financial security and happiness, because none of us would choose to be sick, poor or sad. We know that motivation and persistence are two key factors of success, no matter what our goals are. We strive to become healthy and remain healthy. However, frequently our habits reveal that we have slipped into patterns of motivation that hurt us rather than help us.
What motivates us to seek the help of health professionals: health or sickness? Unfortunately, many of us would have to answer that we look for help only after we become sick. When we are motivated by sickness, we seek help only when we already are experiencing symptoms or health issues. In this circumstance, we are not really in control of the quality of our health because we are taking a reactive rather than active approach to healthcare. When we take a reactive approach, we rely on pills to mask symptoms. Although this approach may make us feel better temporarily, it never really helps us achieve and maintain health. Reactive healthcare leaves us battling symptoms for most of our lives. Rather than living on the “symptom see-saw,” instead we need to act on a plan designed to achieve and maintain optimal health.
Corrective chiropractic care is the best way to achieve this goal. Chiropractic care is a health care approach based upon the body’s natural ability to heal itself and is a very important step in a commitment to optimal health. Optimal health is one of our most valuable possessions. We should value ourselves enough to strive for the highest level of health. When we take responsibility for the choices we make regarding health, we give ourselves the best opportunity to achieve all of our health goals. Chiropractic care can help give us the natural health we deserve when we commit to learning more about our body and take all of the necessary steps to stay well.
