The Pillars of Health

You probably have heard in some form or another about the bank collapse in California last week. If you’re unfamiliar, the bank did not have enough physical money to give to investors who were pulling money out of the bank. As a result, the bank had to sell bonds and securities it owned to come up with physical cash.

The problem was these bonds and securities were sold at a loss, meaning the bank’s stock price dropped to near zero! It was so bad, that the government had to step in and halt any more transactions with the bank. Isn’t it so nice when there is a big government that can step in and seems to save the day (or is it?).

The Reality Check We ALL Need

Equate the bank to you and your health. The government is anything that can be added to your body to stop the natural change in your health that is occurring. When your body is heading towards a health disaster, and your body can no longer sustain itself, does something step in to save you?

Are you dependent on medication, waiting for a surgical procedure to take place, or maybe even utilizing an IV drip on a semi-regular basis as a means to “recover” your body from some health downturn? I will even say it… are you using chiropractic care and adjustments as a means to keep your health from failing in some aspect?

If that’s you, then this reality check is for you! Sorry to call you out, but how exciting is it to be able to offer a paradigm shift, a change to your current perspective?

Think about something that you have been successful at in your life. Did you passively wait until the right things lined up so you could say, ‘hey, I’m successful now at __’? Of course not! You had to work so hard to have the thought even cross your mind at some point to say you were successful.

Your health works largely the same way! You will never be healthy constantly reacting to the EFFECTS of life on your health. That is called managed sickness or managed low-quality health. You must actively pursue optimizing the systems that cause your body to have great health, or not too.

Optimize your nervous system with specific chiropractic adjustments. It controls everything happening inside your body. Even the cell to cell communication must be dictated by the nervous system. Science thinks this nervous system tissue is found in the cell membranes, but this has not been proven as of 2023 yet. If you think pain matters in the context of the adjustment, it doesn’t!! Why?? The pain is an effect of some other cause happening in your body. The adjustment cannot take away the pain. It alters what may be causing the faulty biomechanical pattern. This may or may not take away the pain. The more important piece: your nervous system is now sending a different signal than it was before. This allows for the adaptation of the neural network within you to have a choice. A choice to respond differently to the endless incoming stimuli from the world.

And don’t wait until your health has plummeted to start this process. Don’t you dare let your loved ones wait to start this process, and say “wait until you have a problem, then get under care.” This is like telling the people with their money in the bank, to wait until the bank goes under, then try to pull your money out. They couldn’t. Now those people need the government insurance bail-out to get even a portion of their money back.

Are you ok with only getting a portion of your health back during this short lifetime? Or are you committed to pushing your health in the right direction, which requires proactive action steps so that you NEVER have to question if your health will diminish during your lifetime?

Here’s to being your own bank. One that will never need a government bailout.
