Time. Repetition. Patience.

Time.

Repetition.

Patience.

Whether you are achieving a goal, making a life change, or improving your health, these three elements are required to ensure success.  There is no other way around it.  They are essential for lasting change.

Everything takes time.  Take your health, for example.  The state of health you are in right now took time.  You did not wake up this morning suddenly in the state you are in.  It took time—most likely it took a long time and you probably didn’t even realize it was happening.  Yet here you are. 

What got you there?  Repetition.  Your unhealthy beliefs and repetitive actions reinforce poor functional patterns.  The physical stresses from life, chemical stresses like “franken-food,” drugs, environment, and emotional stresses.  They all play a role in creating your current state of health.

How did get this bad?  Patience.  You were patient on the road to poor health.  Your desk job was too important to stand up and stretch.  TV more important than physical activity.  The pizza and burgers more satisfying than some greens and whole foods.  The negative thoughts easier to say than positive affirmations.  And the drugs you take to prop you up now—well, you’re willing to be patient with those side effects, too.

But are you truly satisfied with your poor health?  Does it bring you the quality of life you want and deserve?  Is that how you really want your life to be?

Did you ever wonder what it would take to make a vital shift in your life?

I have the answer.  Know what it is?

Time.

Repetition.

Patience.

Your healing takes time.  How much time is different for each individual.  The longer you have been in poor health, the longer it will take to achieve your optimal health.  But no matter the time it takes—if you commit—You. Will. Heal.

It’s going to take repetition.  This requires a change in your routine.  Maintaining healthy beliefs and engaging in healthy actions is key here.  Doing these things repeatedly and on a regular basis will get you results.  Rituals equal results.

You must have patience.  The vital shift from ill health to your optimal health is not an easy shift.  We want it to be but remember—easy didn’t do you any favors.  Some days it may be downright hard.  Painful even.  Your steadfast commitment to the process and maintaining faith in your ability to heal will serve you down this road.  

You.  Will.  Heal.  

If you choose.  And that choice is yours.

But you need not walk the road to health alone.  Rising Chiropractic is here as your partner while you navigate and retrace your steps back to your optimal health.  We are a team, and together we will celebrate your successes and encourage you to not just maintain your health for now—but to constantly strive for your optimal now and into the future.
