Doctor Admits Vaccine Is More Deadly Than Swine Flu Itself & Will Not Give It To His Kids

Here's what you CAN do to best protect yourself.  Simple health care... 
     1)  Get your spine checked for subluxations.  They interfere with immune system balance.
     2)  Make sure you are getting enough Vitamin D.  Research suggests that deficiency makes us more susceptible to viruses.  Kids are especially deficient.
     3)  Exercise.
     4)  Manage stress-there is a solution to every stressful situations.  Awareness is half the battle.
     5)  Wash your hands with regular, ole soap and water.  The antibacterial stuff is a drug/chemical that is more hazardous to your health than the germs it is designed to kill.

My husband had knee surgery at the beginning of August and has been unable to mow the lawn since.  I'll admit that I don't mind doing this particular chore, but I'll also admit that, while I want lawn perfection, I am quite inefficient at it.

First, I just kind of jump into it.  Get the mower out and start mowing.  Easy enough until you come across the various obstacles that your children leave and then the fallen branches and the dog poo.  I'll of course move these things out of the way and admittedly just go around them at times(I swear I have moved the same Canada Dry 2 liter bottle at least 4 times).  It takes more time to stop and go and stop and go than it would have to just done the clean up for 5 minutes ahead of the mowing.  Also, I'm sure I'm offending the male sense of "grass patterning."  You know, the perfection of straight lines in one direction.  Mine kind of looks like snail tracks or a 2 year old's line drawing.

So, yes, inefficient, I must confess.  While I was committing lawn sin and cursing myself for not having been more prepared I found an interesting life parallel. 

As a chiropractor, I was once under the assumption that my job was to encourage the process of health.  This weekend I learned that my job is to increase the efficiency of LIFE.  The body is a lot smarter than I am, frankly, and it knows better than I what it needs to be healthy! 

You see when God made the person with nervous system as the master system, He meant for that nervous system to be the coordinator of life force.  Without the coordination of life force, you get disease ultimately.  I don't treat disease.  I'll leave that for those in the sick care industry.  But, what I can and I will do is remove as much interference to your nervous system as I can.  And along the way, teach you ways that can help lessen the likelihood of that interference occurring.

Every man, woman and child should get their spine checked.  Not because the back may hurt, but because without efficiency of the nervous system, you get less life.  Life is the greatest blessing.  Do what you can to ensure yours!
