Don't Let Holidays Turn Into Holimonths!

Don't Let Holidays Turn Into Holimonths!

Once, a large truck was driving through one of the busiest tunnels in New York City. The truck was so large, in fact, that it got stuck in the tunnel and could not back up or move forward. Traffic eventually got backed up for miles and miles. Dozens of traffic, accident, bridge, road, and truck experts were on the scene for hours trying to figure out what to do. Just as the situation and the frustration of the experts were beginning to get out of hand, a 10 year old little girl poked her head out of the window and said, "Why don't you just let the air out of the tires." The dilemma was resolved.

THEME: When life and the world are not working out, re-assess everything!

Even though Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years make up a total of 3 days, most people just call November, December, and the first part of January "The Holidays."
  
Since it is "The Holidays," you can be irresponsible and careless. You can eat mass quantities, put all sorts of horrible "Holiday" items in your body, stop exercising, miss adjustments, spend too much, and put important things off because, after all, it is "The Holidays." In total, you end up with a 6-10 week reign of terror on your life and body.

If you add to these two months to all of the other times you tend to abuse or ignore your health, such as parties, anniversaries, other "holidays," birthdays, weddings, weekends, secretaries day, etc, you are basically being irresponsible for your health (and many other areas of your life) conservatively three months out of every year. (25% of every year)

By the time you are 40 years old, you will have spent 10 years doing serious, possibly irreparable damage to your body, your finances, and possibly your whole life. This is another reason why people are supposed to live to 100, but only make 75. (25% off)

"The Holidays," are a time designated to celebrate and appreciate God's blessings. However, they have become a time dedicated to shortening life and falling short of your God-given potential. Clearly, it is time to look at "The Holidays" from a new perspective.

Of the tens of thousands of sick and suffering people I have met, examined, and consulted, not once have I heard one of them say, "I wish I had done less for my health all of these years."
What they do say, in every case, is "I wish I had met you _______ years ago."
WELL, you have met me, please take advantage of it.

Enjoy the Holidays (6-10 days). Yet, keep you and your family alive in the process

NEW HOLIDAY RULES:
DUE TO THE EXTREME MENTAL, PHYSICAL, AND CHEMICAL STRESS BROUGHT ON BY "THE HOLIDAYS," PLEASE ADD 1 VISIT PER WEEK, DO NOT SUBTRACT FROM YOUR CURRENT ADJUSTMENT AND HOME SPINAL REHAB SCHEDULE. IF YOU ARE LEAVING TOWN FOR SOME TIME REMEMBER TO MAKE UP THE VISITS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE...
SHARE THE GIFT OF HEALTH WITH OTHERS THIS SEASON.
BRING FRIENDS TO THE “Gut Check" TALK DEC 18th at 6:45 PM.

In health,
Dr. Nick Barnes
