The Puzzle of Wellness

By Dr. Michael Weir

Have you ever put together a puzzle only to find that you are missing one piece. What does it do? It ruins the entire picture doesn’t it? I tell my patients every day that they have to view their health as a puzzle. If you are missing one piece to the puzzle of wellness it leads to disfunction in the body, and that disfunction will eventually lead to disease if not addressed.

We are going to look at 4 pieces of the wellness puzzle although their are many more which I discuss on my website. The first is NUTRITION. You are what you eat! Or more correct would be your health and wellness are dictated by what you eat. Be proactive in learning what is good and what is not good for your body.

The second piece is Exercise. Suprise, suprise huh? But it is true! “If you don”t loose, you WILL loose it!” I always tell my patients that the day that they stop moving will be the day that they stop moving…in the ground! Motion is vital for the health and well being of the body.

The third is a healthy functioning nervous system. The NS is what runs the entire body. How long do you think you would live with out food? How about water? Now, how long do you think you would live if I took away your nervous system? Thats right, you would die instantly! It vitally important that the nervous system is running at 100%, 100% of the time!! Chiropractors are the only doctors that work to help optimize the nervous system. We take away any interference so that your brain can communicate with the rest of your body!

Forth is Positive Mental Attitude. With out PMA it is impossible to acheive wellness. The stress that is involved with a negative mental attitude will one day kill you, and it sure isn’t quite as fun as PMA either!

So go out and put your Wellness Puzzle together and make sure not to leave out any pieces!

  1. healthy nutrition and can help build strong body. In truth, there is just so much to learn and to know about nutrition, and, with each passing year, more and more information and research are unveiled. Many experts would differ on what is good or ideal for the optimal health and functioning of the human body. There are also many passing fads which are used for profit purposes rather than true human wellbeing.
