A Task Before the New Year

Hi Everyone,


      What a morning!  Ten inches of snow on the ground this morning so I have a little extra time to help my daughter build her very first Frosty The Snowman.  This snow starts the last week of 2010 which I think is one of the most exciting weeks of the year.  It gives us a chance to sit down and reflect on all of the good things and not so good things that happened this year.  If this is not something that you do, then try to make this year the first. 
      Reflection is so important for every individual.  It helps us realize and pat ourselves on the back for all of the good things that we did or that happened to us.  We also can realize everything from the year that did not work for us or make us happy and try to change that for the new year.  New Year's resolutions will work much better if we have truly thought about what it is that we would like to change. 
     So what the heck does this have to do with my back pain or neck pain Dr. Jeff?  Just in case you are thinking this, let me explain;  Many of you have heard me talk about what the true cause of the pain that you may be having.  The reflection exercise may help us get to the source of the stress that is the underlying cause of our back pain(or any other health issue).  Once we realize what may be wrong, then we can make the necessary steps to change.  So, a small challenge to everyone this week is to sit down & really think about this past year before any new years resolutions are made.


     To close the year, I want to truly thank all of you that put your trust into our office to help improve your health and well being.  We are honored to have you be part of our practice!


LETS HAVE A GREAT NEW YEAR!
Yours in Health,


Dr. Jeff
