4 Ways to Super-Power Your New Year

Get adjusted regularly.  This will change your life, not only physically, such as less pain, and better mobility, but also in other areas.  Many people have found improved mental health which could mean less depression or anxiety and an increase in joy!  Improved sleep is one of the “side effects” of Chiropractic adjustments and so is an increased immune system!  Maybe you have experienced other improvements that we haven’t listed.  Tell your friends!  They deserve to live a better life too!



Be Grateful!  This simple attitude adjustment will make huge changes in your life.  Put away negativity and criticism and focus on what is good about your life.  Do you have food to eat each day?  Do you have clothes to wear and a place to live?  If so, then you are better off than 600 million other people!  Write down or tell a friend things each day that you are grateful for. A current FB trend is to take a photo each day for a year of what you are thankful for.



Get up and MOVE! Whether you are just able to walk down the street, or whether you want to increase your athletic performance, moving your body in the sunshine will increase endorphins (feel-good chemicals) and muscle tone.  Aim for 3-5 times a week of moderate exercise to improve your heart, lungs, and brain function.

At our office, we will be discussing the 7 Deadly Sins of nutrition that you will want to avoid and also the 7 Superfoods to add to your diet.  Learning these few simple ideas will help transform your nutrition and will set you on a healthier path this year.
