We all know this is important: taking care of our body. But how many of us actually do it?
Yesterday, I saw my chiropractor. I love my chiropractor. Ever since Bruck my arms have been whacked. Sore. Wrist hurts. Bruised. You name it.
My chiropractor fixed my wrist. It feels SO much better now. The pain is gone and the range of motion is back.
Last week, I got a massage. It felt SO good. Again, range of motion returned. Knots disappeared. I felt so much better.
Nutrition. Lately, I’ve been eating pretty crappy. So much ice cream and chocolate in the house it’s hard to resist. I tightened this up last week as well. Again, I feel SO much better.
Sleep. I’ve been trying to sleep more. Going all day on 5 hours of sleep is exhausting. My body cries!
Taking care of your body involves effort, time, and attention. But it’s worth it especially as you age. It’s necessary if you want to continue doing the things you like to do.
You are given one body. Appreciate it. Care for it. Love it. Be grateful for it.
Without it, you’d be….
