'Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you' -Our experience of reality has very little to do with reality itself and has everything to do with our interpretation of our circumstances through the controlling forces of your BELIEFS- in simple terms; the rules we have about what has to happen in order for us to feel good. -The truth is that nothing has to happen in order for you to feel good. You can decide to feel good this very moment! - As long as we structure our lives in a way where our happiness is dependent on something we cannot control, then we will experience pain. -We can decide to enjoy your day no matter what happened. Decide that no matter what happens, we'll find a way to enjoy it -If you adopted and consistently applied this rule to your own life, it would change virtually EVERYTHING you experience. To adopt this rule is to raise your standards. It means you will hold yourself to a higher standard of enjoying yo...

Habits are a big deal because they inform everything we do, including the ways we define ourselves. Being healthy is not an accident , a stroke of luck or by magic. IT IS A HABIT . it is a habit that will shape our bodies that we were born with, a habit that will support the genetic makeup we got from our parents. So, if we want to give ourselves a fighting chance to survive and thrive despite our bad backs, asthma, eczema, dodgy knees, we must develop habits that keep our systems operating at maximum. Charles Duhigg, in his book, The Power of Habit, says: habits are the way our brains perform familiar activities unconsciously, so we can save energy for other tasks. when you consciously choose to do something repeatedly, it becomes a habit. Habits are so natural to our brain that we don't even realize when we've lost control of the conscious decision making part of the equation. So, if you want to change the way you fee, you want to become healthier, you must unpack you...

THE MELT METHOD BY SUE HITZMANN a book about solving chronic pain Pain and discomfort are your body's way of trying to get your attention so you will take care of something. You dont have to accept pain as a normal part of aging or active living. understanding the true reason for your pain will profoundly affect your ability to resolve your symptoms and live pain free. Real cause of chronic pain is repetitive movements and postures. Our connective tissue (fascia) is the component in our bodies that keeps us stable. It provides the body its architectural stability. It creates a flexible framework that compartmentalizes, separates and connects everything in the body. This tissue is constantly morphing and adapting to your movements and positions to support your joints, bones and organs. the repetition of daily living causes connective tissue to become dehydrated. Dehydration makes connective tissue less responsive, supportive and adaptable, which causes strain in the muscle...
