The Wellness Revolution: A Mind-Body-Soul Connection…

Something that has always amazed me is the lack of Health in Healthcare. I’m not talking about how the insurance companies want to keep you sick to make profit or how your Medical Doctor is feeding you toxic chemicals to regulate the side-effects of the last toxic chemical they gave you. I am taking about the lack of health that the Healthcare Practitioner is providing for them self.

Being in practice or in school can be very hard on your body. From the lack of sleep, not being able to afford good food, sitting or standing all day, stressing about finances, or simply not having the time to take care of you. This article is not going to give you a step-by-step routine to follow for health, but I really want you to take a look at your own personal habits and how they might be reflecting on your practice. Maybe, if you are a personal trainer, you should workout as well to look fit as an example for your client. Maybe Chiropractors should be getting adjusted (Upper Cervical in my opinion). Maybe Nutritionists should be following a health diet themselves.

I remember being at Chiropractic school and there were “Smoking Sections” and during every break there was a certain group of people always there. What happens when you are adjusting someone and talking to the about Wellness Care and you smell like smoke? Just the other day I was at a gym and there was a personal trainer with a wonderful “Beer Belly” and he wasn’t an older gentleman at all.

All I’m saying is that YOU, as a HEALTHcare provider, need to start setting an example for the people you serve. Start living an active healthy life being the role model that so many people lack in our Unhealthy Nation today.

If I need to refer out my people to another practitioner for any reason, I am for sure going to send them to the person who I see as the best potential role model. Just remember, YOU are the best testimonial for the care that YOU provide. First impression is the most important.
