Health And Stress Pt1 5/5 User Manual 4 Humans
so
what do humans need
humans have requirements of
a
on a structural chemical and emotional
needs
those are needs the requirements
so we need to simply put we need to eat
well
move well
and think well
those are requirements you cannot
reach optimal health you cannot realize
your potential
with two out of three
on a regular basis so what does it mean
to eat well it means you eat real food
and we'll have another seminar on food
it means food that nature produced
we developed in nature we are a part of
nature we cannot eat things we cannot
thrive on things that are not from
nature
we cannot thrive on laboratory chemicals
secondly we need to move well that's the
exercise that we talked about that
activates the receptors
but it's also if we have
if we have limitations
moving well also involves chiropractic
because if you have a joint that isn't
moving
that's a bottleneck for that information
doesn't matter how much you exercise if
that joint isn't moving there's still a
part in your brain that's that gets
started
so eat will move well and then think
well
we need to feel good
that's not an option
feeling good is a requirement for for
thriving
and that means we need to
make it a priority to feel good if we
don't know how then we read the book we
do something to help us with some
positive input to make us feel good
and
watching news isn't working
that's not part of the feel-good part so
that's the requirements for health
plants need water sunshine and good soil
humans need to eat well mood will think
well
not optional
so
we're getting close to to wrapping it up
so now we want to talk about
what is required
to restore health
if we have some issues what do we need
to do to restore the function and the
health
so first we want to interrupt the
pattern
whatever isn't working in the body
is due to a pattern that is running that
is not in your best interest whether
it's making
too much or too little stomach acid or
whether it's a muscle in the neck that
is turning a vertebra or keeping it
tense
whatever it is it's a pattern
and the first thing we want to do is to
interrupt that pattern that's step one
the second thing we want to do
is to start restoring balance
in the nervous system and that's
specifically particularly the balance
between sympathetic and parasympathetic
so we want to give the body a chance at
healing by reducing the stress
and the best thing we can do there again
is
chiropractic adjustments to interrupt
the pattern and follow it up with
breathing exercises
this is why you probably have heard me
talk about breathing
in this office
because
the heart rate variability
is one of the best indicators there is
on future health potential
and the breathing is a way that we can
we have direct access to the balance of
sympathetic and parasympathetic function
third thing we want to do is to rebuild
strength
whatever areas in the brain have
declined have degenerated
we need to try to rebuild them in order
to restore the full function
so if you have if you sprained an ankle
10 years ago
and
ever since then you started limping a
little bit
and then the ankle got better and you
didn't think much about it but ever
since then you changed your gait just a
little bit
so
that you're pushing off three
millimeters less on that leg
that means that there's less movement in
the hip and there's a difference between
the incoming signals of your left and
right brain
something as subtle as that will create
a difference
is it significant we don't really know
but if you have hundreds of those events
they all add up
so
how do we rebuild strength in the
nervous system
again the chiropractic adjustment
it sends a fireworks of activity of
stimulation to the brain
and because we have different
chiropractic techniques we tend to find
where is the weak area we either check a
short leg we do a muscle test we look at
some neurological function
if we can change
some expression of function
then we have helped balance out an
underlying imbalance
and what's the fourth thing we want to
reduce stress because stress is
ultimately the thing that caused the
problem in the first place
and what is stress
stress is lifestyle and perception
so we want to make sure that we get
adequate rest we want to make sure that
we feel good we don't want to work 80
hours a week
and live on coffee and cigarettes
we want to we want to give the body a
fair chance that's the smart lifestyle
choices
and the second thing is perception and
this is a lifelong process but it's
probably the best thing and the most
important thing that we can do for
ourselves is to gradually
work on changing the outlook that we
have
because it's not the traffic
that
is stressful it's our perception of it
and the same holds true for every person
that you meet every judgment that you
ever make
every
piece of bad news or or
aggravation that you ever come across
it's a perception and it doesn't mean
anything
unless you give meaning to it
but that's that's a choice and it's
something we need to work on
and then there's a little cartoon in
here as well
i love this guy
he's got lots of funny stuff if you want
to look him up on the web
says what fits your busy schedule better
exercising an hour a day or being dead
24 hours a day
i think that's kind of to the point
because so many times
we
yeah you know all that stuff it's really
important
but you know i'm so busy i just never
get to it there's so many things to do i
gotta feed the chat i gotta go to work
and if we nev if we don't make it a
priority it never happens
so if we wanna be healthy and happy we
gotta set the time aside ahead of time
and make it something important and then
we always have time for the important
stuff
so
who wants to feel better
i'm sure you all have someone in mind
you already thought of
that you think yeah
they got it they have to know this stuff
they need to know this so
that's why we started this series of
talks so that
you can come and learn we're going to
try to change the topics and keep
expanding on this
and also for you to bring in new people
so that we can have a growing crowd
that's really the purpose of
everything that we're doing here to
raise the awareness of
of health and well-being
so
feel free to write down some names of
people that you think could benefit from
from knowing this stuff
and
feel free to bring them next time
so thank you very much
for your attention and uh do you have
any sort of questions feel free
i covered everything too well
and i wonder why i got that board
yeah
we'll learn to write on it eventually
