We spend Over half of our lives doing things for and taking care of other people, Parents for their kids, Employees for their bosses, Husband/Wife for their Spouse. We live to take care of other people. What happens When we don't take care of ourselves? When you lose those extra hours of sleep, you pull that extra shift or take the second job? How many times have you said I'll see the doctor later, I'll get a massage as soon as things calm down, I'll try acupuncture when I get a chance, I'll Exercise at the start of the year. These are all common remarks we tell ourselves and we Procrastinate, sometimes to the point of injuring ourselves.
Self care is very important, I have often heard the quote "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure..." Benjamin Franklin (February 4, 1735, The Pennsylvania Gazette). While this quote was in reference to fire safety and prevention, it certainly carries over into our lives and Health Practices. Allowing your self care to go to the wayside is detrimental to not only your health and wellness but the health and wellness of your loved ones. When you are in pain or become chronically ill, you eventually stop being able to properly care for those you love. Chronic Conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic inflammatory and pain conditions, Diabetes, Obesity, Multiple Sclerosis as well as many many other Autoimmune disorders can leave you bedridden, in pain, with Muscle Atrophy, depression and anxiety. These and many other conditions can be properly managed if we stop procrastinating and take the steps necessary to gain control of our lives.
Let me help you keep on track! My Goal is to help you to achieve your health and wellness goals and put an end to the procrastination cycle.
