Health is so much more than how you feel. It is about how your body functions! Are you able to move like you were once able to? Are you able to do all the hobbies that you love? Can you sit down and play with your kids without being in pain? Or can you concentrate all day at work without having a headache or mid back pain?
Your nervous system plays a huge role in how your body functions. All of the topics that I talk about ALL THE TIME affect your nervous system.
6 key topics that affect your health are:
- Drinking enough water
- Restful sleep
- Stress/Thoughts
- Toxins
- Movement
- Nutrition
- Neurostructural Chiropractic Care
Your Nervous System is a part of all of them:
- Needs water to function.
- Balances out the sympathetic and parasympathetic parts to help us get a full nights sleep
- Controls the amounts and time stress hormone release in your body.
- Gets rid of the toxins in our bodies.
- Controls the muscles which allow us to move.
- Controls the organs that absorb the nutrients we eat or our immune system to keep us healthy.
It’s not always about a quick fix. It’s about taking care of yourself now so your future self can continue to do the things you love to do.
Grilling Recipes!
Chicken Wings:
- I put them in the crockpot in the morning and they are cooked through by the time we put them on the grill.
- This way we only have to worry about getting them crispy.
- We love both parmesan garlic and hot sauce.
- Homemade parm garlic
- Melted butter with garlic and fresh parmesan cheese
- You can dip them individually so you don’t use as much sauce on the wings which can be the most dangerous part to your diet!
ASPARAGUS IS IN SEASON GUYS!!!!
Bacon wrapped Asparagus:
- Wrap a few asparagus spears together in bacon strips and grill!
Potatoes:
- We put a potato with our meal a lot! Probably too much but we love it! It takes away the cravings for fries.
- We love them cut up into small squares and fried in kerrygold butter or avocado oil with salt and pepper in the cast iron! You can also get a grill pan that you can just cook them up right on the grill as you grill your wings!
- You can cut them up like fries too!
- Sweet potatoes would be even better for you!!
I’ll let you in on a little secret. My husband, Dan hates cooking (and I don’t always love his cookings) but he can handle this meal when I work later during the week! WIN WIN!!
