Relax

 Welcome back everyone at Natural Health! Over the past weekend I got the privilege of celebrating a friend's wedding day and had a great time. It is still chiropractic month and wanted to keep the discussion directed in regards to chiropractic. It is great being adjusted and one aspect of living a healthy life is our ability to adjust ourselves to the many activities of life. 

Patience can take on many aspects and be used in various ways. It doesn’t always have to mean waiting for something in the future. It can also be practiced by being grateful for all we have now. We can even utilize it everyday by being observant with what life offers us rather than bemoaning certain conditions. It can be enjoying the process more and making peace with where we are now. Sometimes we are given more direction to do or not to do something which helps us to realize that what we wanted before may not be exactly in our best interest. It is a practice that when used can help others see that they have the power to use it also. At times we may be quick to judge or criticize someone but it is patience that helps us see where the person is coming from and perhaps why we judged in the first place. 


This is a reminder to remember that all of us are on our own paths, that we all have different perspectives and understandings of life. Although it may not be easy at times, being relaxed can allow life to unfold in great ways. It is also a key aspect of our own health and wellbeing. So be patient with yourself even with the times you may have forgotten to be patient.


Have a great week!

Good Food, Digestion and Absorption

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-                 I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving and were actually grateful for all the food that we ate. There is a lot of good foods in the Thanksgiving meal, but also some that probably weren’t the best for us. We will just have to get back on the good eating bandwagon so that we stay healthy through the rest of these holidays coming up. I try to remind people to stay hydrated because it’s easy to forget to drink water and get your electrolytes. Staying hydrated just helps so many systems of the body and helps the pH to stay correct, which helps keep the bugs, which are in us and on us at all times, under control.                 We had a great Black Friday Open House/Patient Appreciation Day and were very thankful for the folks that came out and enjoyed some food and drink, an...

Breast Health

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-             Aren’t the trees beautiful? Fall is such a beautiful time of year and the weather has been outstanding. I hope you were able to get outside and increase your vitamin D stores for the winter. Remember that vitamin D is activated by sunlight so it’s important to get some. Vitamin D is also an oil soluble vitamin so you must be consuming good fats in order to have a good vitamin D source. If you get into the science of vitamin D, you’ll find it comes from cholesterol so the mainstream medicines war on cholesterol causes vitamin D levels to be low and this causes lots of immune system problems and other issues. We help our patients be able to digest and absorb fats and watch that their vitamin D levels are optimum.             The article I’m sending along this week looks at screenings and mammograms and how they can be...
  Hello everyone and natural health Nation -      Well we finally got some rain and now I’m beginning to wonder if we could turn it back off. It seems we're never happy - ha. I was surprised to see that the ground had dried out that much in a fairly short amount of time but with the rain we had this weekend, everything should be good for quite a while. I was happy to see the grass and everything green back up and the corn and beans are just growing like mad. We were working out in the rain on Saturday to finish some jobs and it was nice that it was warm. I'm sure we'll get lots of sunshine as the summer progresses and probably need more rain at some point too.      The article I'm sending along today looks at what happens to the human body when you eat processed foods. This is a problem during the summer when everyone gets into vacation mode and doesn't eat nearly as well as they did in the Spring. It's one of our problems in o...
