You are designed to be healthy

You are designed to be healthy...

There is a reason for every emotion, biochemical reaction, and response to our environment.

Everything that your body does, it does for you.

You may not necessarily LIKE what your body does...

But there is a reason for everything.

I learned this lesson loud and clear in physiology class...

One of my classmates asked Dr. Modell, “Why would the heart pump harder and make you bleed more if you were shot or stabbed?”

“The body does not care what you want. It does what it was designed to do.”

The body tries to maintain blood pressure...and it does this by getting your heart to beat faster and harder...

Even if you bleed out faster!

If something is not going the way you want, we have to ask, “Why is my body responding this way?”

When we ask better questions, we can understand what we need more of and what we need less of.

Nature does not care what we want!

Yes. Nature can be harsh. Nature can be unforgiving.

But nature operates under specific laws, and our challenge is to understand the laws and do our best to play by the rules to get more of what we want.

We cannot bend the laws of nature just because we don’t like them.

We can only control what we can control, which is how we think and respond.

Align yourself with the laws of nature and life will probably go better than you think it can.
