Getting accustomed to ill Health

While on holiday we went for a swim at the hotel's indoor pool. It was crowded with many families with small children. As we sat on the side remarking about the crowd, talking and relaxing, we thought very little about the noise. Sometime after, the crowd left, and there was a "deafening" silence. The spoken word seemed to carry across the entire pool area. We had not noticed that earlier we had been almost shouting to be heard. Every sound was magnified, where earlier it had been absorbed by the general din.

Is your health in a similar situation? Often people get accustomed to ill health. People just get used to aches and pains. Winston Churchill is said to have remarked that most of what is accomplished in the world is done by people who do not feel good. Sadly, this may be very close to the truth. Very few people really experience vibrant health. Most go through life not really sick, but not really healthy. If someone were to ask these people how they were doing, they would say "fine," but they really are not fine. They are not experiencing their fullest potential. They do not think as clearly as they could. They seem to have less energy every day. They cannot get going in the morning without two cups of coffee. They have to take a nap after supper in order to have enough strength to go to bed. They would like to jog, exercise, or play tennis, but they just don't have the energy, or maybe they don't even have the desire. Millions of people are not healthy and they do not even know it. Like the noise level in the pool, they have grown accustomed to not experiencing what is normal and natural. A body not functioning at its fullest potential has become their norm.

How can one break out of this situation? Well, it's not easy. It takes effort. First you must want to be better. If you are satisfied with feelings less than 100% then there is no incentive to change. Unfortunately, many people are satisfied. But, if you want a fuller expression of life and health, you must begin to do the things necessary to achieve that end. You must do those things necessary to be healthy. Begin by improving your eating habits. Only you know what it takes to improve them. Improve or start an exercise program geared to your lifestyle, physical body, and what you enjoy. Above all, maintain your body with a good nerve supply by getting your spine checked regularly. There is no way the human body can begin to function as it should when it has vertebral subluxations causing nerve interference. You may be surprised at the difference.
