Welcome • Good Evening and Welcome to my class on The 5 Pillars of Health to Living a Vibrant Life • My Goal tonight is to give you a funand exciting way to live a better healthier life with some tools and action steps to be used tomorrow morning • I will not only try to educate you on some cutting edge wellness concepts but also stick to a 20 minute timeframe, which will then be followed by Q&A at the end

3. Pillar # 1 • Proper Mental Attitude

4. What you think about will come about • What you say on a daily basis is a portion of who we are • What you think about is the rest of who we are • Researches states that we can say around 20-40,000 words to our selves all day in what is referred to as our internal voice • As well as men speak around 7000 words while women say around 20,000 words daily • How much of those words are positive about ourselves or about others?

5. What you think becomes your reality.. • How many times do you look in the mirror and same something nice and or flattering about yourself? • Versus how many times do you look in the mirror and say; “I'm Fat or ugly, or look at my skin or hair;what a mess?” • The ability to learn control about what you say to yourself throughout your day will be the most rewarding opportunity for positive change

6. Changing your internal statements to maximize your Life • Every time that you say an internal or external negative statement instantly replace it with a positive one. • Anytime that you notice that your thoughts are not allowing you to feel or act in a positive way, replace them with positive ones or think of a positive, happy experience from your past

7. Changing your internal statements to maximize your Life continued… • Any time that your day’s attitude does not feel positive or you just do not feel happy, change your thoughts to something funny that has occurred in your past or of a positive past emotional experience

8. Affirmations • Saying a daily affirmation or a series of positive statements is an incredible way to start your day of right • An affirmation said out loud preferably with emotion can help open a trap door into your subconscious mind • The subconscious mind is like like a master recording of your whole life that can be accessed with emotions or by stress • Any one here; say daily affirmations or ever say an affirmation?

9. The ability to reshape your subconscious mind • Is completely possible by simply saying positive affirmations daily • This will allow you new possibilities to excel and grow your own personal power. • Thereby allowing you to change your state and attitude into a more positive more enjoyable life

10. Daily Affirmation • Today is a great day and I have the opportunity to be the best me ever. I am a an irresistible magnet with the absolute power to attract into my life everything that I desire. My life is a huge success! • I am committed to constant and never ending personal improvement and I take massive action steps to create the future as I want it. I will do whatever it takes to become the winner I know I can be. • My beliefs create my reality! I choose robust health, abundant wealth, constant happiness and eterernal love. I attract, heal and postitively influence the lives of people in my community. I think big thoughts, relish small pleasures and handle all set backs gracefully. • I give thanks for the opportunity to serve humanity and I willingly accept the rewards being sent to me by an abundant universe. I am deeply grateful for all I create and receive. My life is now in total balance and I AM A MASTER!!!!!!

11. Pillar # 2 • Proper Exercise

12. What is proper exercise? • Proper exercise can simply be defined as moving your body everyday • I recommend at least some version of cardio 3-4 x per week • This can be 20 consecutive minutes of walking, hiking, running, stair master, elliptical machine, yoga, etc. • I would also recommend some version of core or weight training a few times a week to keep your muscles, bones and joints healthy and young

15. What are the most common excuses why not to exercise that I here daily.. • I have no time • I am not sure what to do • I will start next week • I already do everyday in my job or with my kids • I am afraid of hurting myself or I already have pain … • Any others that you say or have heard?

16. Its time to leave all the excuses at the door … • After stated all of the positive health benefits of exercise previously, can I count on you to spread the word? • Can we all drop the excuses and just start moving? • If you already exercise regularly, can you help me motivate your love ones or your friends? • Are we OK as a society to allow ourselves, or friends and our family to succumb to diseases that are preventable?

17. Action Steps for tomorrow • Just start by walking for ten minutes from your home and then ten minutes back • Look into local gyms or numerous one on one training studios • Look into hiring a personal trainer to educate and inspire you • Look into workout DVDs to motivate and inspire you in the convenience of your own home • Find a friend or family member to work out with and keep each other motivated

18. Pillar # 3 • Proper Nutrition

19. Proper Nutrition Clarified • It can easily be defined as eating mostly whole foods and vegetables daily with moderate protein intake per meal. • Drinking adequate amounts of water throughout the day • Eat as many live foods as you can • Reduce your carbohydrates intake daily, because remember carbs will turn into sugar in your body • Reduce your daily sugar intake

20. What does food even do for us? • Foods primary role for our bodies is to be used as neurological fuel • This fuel should power our brain, power our body and allow our bodies the vital nutrients it needs to make over 30,000 chemical and drugs to run and heal our body • So, when we feed it junk our brain will run like garbage and our healing and function will be less than optimal

21. What happens when we continue to eat poorly? • Beyond an unnatural weight gain of pure fat, you will start to experience dis-ease • This is defined by lack of harmony with in the body • This will lead to almost ALL DISEASE states • This why 3 out of 4 Americans are overweight • 1 out every 3 children are obese • 3 out of every 5 people will die from a sedimentary lifestyle

22. How can I start making better choices to optimize my body • Start by avoiding: high fructose corn syrup, MSG and other ingredients you can not say or have not heard of • Always shop for your foods in the periphery of the supermarket or food store • Always remind yourself why you are eating food • Start to notice how you feel after you eat food and eat more of the things that make you think clearer and feel better

23. How can I start making better choices to optimize my body..continued • Try to reduce eating out • Never buy or stop for fast foods • Get excited to try new healthier foods • Try eating more organic foods • Look into talking to myself, a nutritionist or a health coach • Lead by example for your friends and family

24. Pillar # 4 • Proper Rest and Relaxation

25. Proper Rest and Relaxation • This is usually the only one of the pillars that most people excel at initially • Proper rest is quintessential for your body to rejuvenate • Proper relaxation is essential for global balance in our daily life • The ability to allow the body to restore is vital to our daily existence

26. Questions to hit home the importance of R & R • Do you ever wake up fully rested and realize how good you feel? • When your morning starts that way how does your day typically follow? • How great do you feel when your on vacation? • Always Remember that : Positive reactions are like a beautiful continuum for your success

27. Further Importance of Proper Rest and Relaxation • Your brain needs to rest and relax to recharge, no different than any other battery or computer • Your body needs to rest and relax to heal and unwind, so that it can perform at a higher more optimal level • Your ability to separate your day into chunks of time; to work hard, play hard, to be fully engaged with your family, spouse and yourself … YOU DESRERVE IT

28. Pillar # 5 • Proper Working Nervous System

29. What is the Nervous System? • The nervous system is made up of the brain and spinal cord • This system acts like the super computer controlling and regulating the 70-100 trillions cells that make up THE LIVING COMMUNITY CALLED YOU. • In essence the brain send and receives neuronal messages through the spinal cord and out through spinal nerves which exit the spine

30. Optimal Nervous System • When the brain sends out a message it is vital that the message has no interference • Without the neuronal inference the brain will properly be able to self heal and self regulate the body • Thereby in this example all processes and function are properly working thereby pain and symptoms can not sustain or exist

31. What if my nervous system has interference in it? • This will reduce the efficiency of the brains messages wherever that spinal nerve would go to • This is how we represent symptoms in the body in both muscles, organs and or glands • This is called vertebral subluxation; which is defined as a malposition of one spinal bone in comparison from the one above and below thereby causing a indirect pressure scenario on the spinal nerve

32. How can you check to see if your spine has a subluxation? • The only doctor to check your spine for subluxations is a CHIROPRACTOR • I highly recommend that you allow myself or you find another chiropractor to check and maintain your spines health for you and your family • This will give you the highest probability to having a proper working nervous system, thereby allowing you to better self heal and self regulate your body

33. A Free Gift • I will offer any non practice member or friend of any practice member a FREE SPINAL CHECK UP!!! • I will also explain to them or you what potential spinal bone is out of alignment and where that nerve may be affecting your body

34. Life is all about balance… • When is the last time you took some time just for your self? • When is the last time you when on a date with your spouse or mate? • When is the last time you spent quality time with your children? • When is the last time you had fun at work? • When is the last time you ate well, moved well and thought well?

35. The Tools to Living a Balanced Life • Each day quickly map out several minutes to hours in these basic categories • Family Time ( Split between all children) • You Time • Work Time • Spouse Time • Play Time • Exercise time

36. Are you sick and tired of being on the roller coaster of life? • I’m Happy today, not tomorrow • I’m Sick or have a symptom today or this week, but not tomorrow • I have enough money this week to pay bills, but not tomorrow • I am getting along in your relationship, but maybe not tomorrow?

37. When you integrate the 5 Pillars of health daily with proper life balance • You will be paving the road to your optimal life for you and your family • You will stop riding the roller coaster of life • You will have more certainty of your health for you and your family • You will start to feel younger, more vibrant, more energetic, more self love and self confidence
