Your Health Account

Think of your health like a bank account. You are allowed to make withdrawals and deposits into your "Health Account" all throughout your life. Now picture every healthy thing you do as a 'deposit'. For example you go for a walk, that's a deposit. You eat a bowl of blueberries and drink a tall glass of water, that's another deposit. Some deposits are better than others, but all deposits will increase your "Health Account." Getting an adjustment is a large deposit into your account. Eating one strawberry is a small deposit, but both are good. 

The flip side is a 'withdrawal' from your account. Think of every unhealthy thing you do or have done as a withdrawal from your "Health Account." For example if you smoke every time you light up you are making a withdrawal, which will decrease your health. Every time you eat a sugary treat you make another withdrawal. Constantly being stressed out or worrying about life's stresses will drain your account. Some withdrawals take more out than others, but all withdrawals decrease your "Health Account." 

Just like your bank account if all you do is take money out you will go 'broke' very quickly. If you constantly make deposits then your account will remain full. The goal should be to keep your "Health Account" as full as possible. Nobody goes through life only making deposits. All of us will take money out of the account from time to time. The key to living a healthy, active life is to limit your withdrawals and make as many deposits as possible.  If you drink a large soda for lunch, make sure you balance that out by exercising. Most of us need help figuring out what is healthy and how to implement healthy choices into our day to day lives so that we can live a long, active, healthy life. The life we were "Intended" to live.
