Today’s blog has to do with flexibility. Think about it. Are you flexible or inflexible when it comes to your opinions, situation, mind, body and health? Maybe that is a good thing, then again, maybe not. Is there a possibility that there is another way, a different way and perhaps even a better way? Stretch out and see how it works for you.
BRAIN COLONIC
You don’t have to swallow everything you are being fed. Sometimes it is a good idea to think for yourself and consider an alternative. Maybe we could all use a “brain colonic” to clean out a bunch of antiquated ideas that we are so convinced are true. There is only one way to skin a cat, right? Wrong. Thankfully Christopher Columbus didn’t buy into that!
THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED
When was the last time you got in the car and put the rubber to the road? Perhaps you opened up Google maps, entered your destination and took off. Clearly there are a few different routes you can take to get to your destination. Sometimes you even get rerouted. John and I live and Albuquerque. We would be fools to believe the only route to Denver is north on I-25. Perhaps it is the quickest way, but is it the only way? Not necessarily. Ask those who have taken a road less traveled
There are things you will miss if you travel through life with tunnel vision.
TOUCH YOUR TO TOES
Stop reading for a minute and stand up. Straighten your knees a bit and attempt to touch your toes. How did you do? Can you bend at the waist and put your hands on the floor? If so, congratulations on your amazing flexibility. There are myriad benefits to being flexible. If not and are you one of those who can barely bend over to pick up something off the floor, work on that flexibility and soon you will reap the benefits.
PANCAKES ANYONE?
You might believe that P. Diddy is a lying sack of suds while others might actually believe he is innocent. There are those who can’t believe Arianna Grande is nowhere to be found on this year’s Grammy nominations. Opinions do differ. Remain open to new ideas. Although flexibility can be frustrating and scary, some feel like it beats the alternative. Inflexibility can feel like a security blanket. Many will stay the course rather than face the uncertainty that change implies. Remember, no matter how flat you make a pancake, it has two sides.
HEALTH
Like Google maps, there are different routes you can take to arrive at a destination. When it comes to your health, have an open, flexible mind. One size does not fit all. Find a provider you are comfortable with. Ask questions, listen carefully and perhaps take notes. Consider alternatives. Be your best health advocate. If we can help, call us at 505-350-3397.
