"Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day; while failure is simply a few errors in judgment, repeated every day. It is the accumulative weight of our disciplines and our judgments that leads us to either fortune or failure." —Jim Rohn
 Active ChiroCare E-Zine Goals. Everybody has them. Some people have a goal to make more money. For some, it's spending more time with family and less time at the office. For others, it's to be healthy. But how do you get from, "This is what I want" to actually achieving your goal? There's a well-known acronym that many prominent motivational and self-development speakers use when it comes to goal-setting: S.M.A.R.T.
It should be something like, "I'm going to lose 10 pounds by January 1st, 2011." It's specific, you can measure whether you've actually lost 10 pounds or not, 10 pounds is definitely attainable and realistic, and you have a specific date by which your goal must be completed by. At Active ChiroCare, we also set S.M.A.R.T. goals for people who want to feel better and improve their posture. Next week, I'll explain in depth how that actually happens. If you have questions about how to set S.M.A.R.T. goals for yourself, then just email me at DrLeif@ActiveChiroCare.com , and I'd be glad to help you! Life Active-atedThis week's patient testimony comes from Veronica. Veronica came to Active ChiroCare because of daily headaches, which drained her of energy at the end of the day. After looking at x-ray films of her neck, she could see that her posture wasn't where it needed to be.After getting regular chiropractic adjustments to her entire spine, doing postural exercises on the Power Plate, and doing muscle stretching to her neck, she now only gets the occasional headache, instead of the daily ones she had for years!  Who do YOU know that would benefit from chiropractic care? BStrong4Life NewsGravity is constant. How it impacts your body matters. The gravitational force acting on your body is destructive when your frame isn’t right. If your head, torso, pelvis and feet aren’t balanced; gravity is unrelentingly wearing out your frame… prematurely. A damaged frame limits everything you do; you never reach your potential. There is hope. When an accurate blueprint of your body is created, and compared to normal, structural weakness and vulnerability to gravity can be determined. More importantly, a specific solution to improve or normalize abnormal posture under the relentless force of gravity can be effectively implemented…before it’s too late. The BS4L™ System attacks abnormal posture and function with a vengeance: from every angle, and from inside out simultaneously. With the right blueprint, your body is literally rebuilt, millions of muscle cells and nerve circuits at once. Every aspect of strength and function is addressed. How you resist gravity, how your body reacts to it, the force your bones exert to resist this universal force, and of course, how your joints dynamically respond to every move you want to make. BS4L™ System will make you stronger, straighter, faster, and healthier, in less than 30 minutes per week. You can always do more, but you must never do less… The ultimate in structural stability, and dynamic core strength… BS4L™ System is for every body under gravity.

Active ChiroCare E-ZineWelcome to the second addition of the Active ChiroCare E-Zine! School, fall sports, and band camp are upon us! Want to make sure that your child or grandchild is performing as well as they can on the playing field (either as an athlete, cheerleader, or marching band member)? Then consider this: Have their posture evaluated. By having your spine analyzed, you can make sure that it's as structurally stable and your body frame is as strong as possible. Headaches, neck pain, and back pain can all be helped by improving posture. In addition, there are many studies that conclude that having proper posture, along with chiropractic care, can actually INCREASE your athletic performance! There are two ways to have your posture analyzed: visually and by taking x-rays. From now through September 13th, if you mention this E-Zine, your child or grandchild can have a FREE spinal exam and any necessary x-ray films taken to make sure their spinal posture is giving them optimum function and the highest potential for athletic performance! Life Active-atedThis last week, I had the opportunity to help two different teenage girls who have scoliosis. For those of you who don't know what scoliosis is, it's an abnormal curvature of the spine, and it affects about 2-3 million people each year. Girls are also 7 times more likely to develop scoliosis than boys!.  But the reason I was excited to have the opportunity to help them was because of something called theSpineCor brace. It's a revolutionary new brace for scoliosis that lets kids and adults move around more freely, and all the while the brace is helping reduce the amount of scoliosis! It's also easily hidden underneath clothes, so that teenagers (particularly teenage girls) are less self-conscious in public. What looks better to you: the old hard, inflexible and rigid brace, or the more flexible and comfortable SpineCor brace?   With school health check-ups around the corner, please don't hesitate to tell your friends and family members about the benefits of the SpineCor brace and how more and more families are choosing this fabulous option! As the 1st SpineCor Certified Doctor in Nebraska, I've had much experience in scoliosis rehabilitation, and I would love to help these families! For more info, you can visit my SpineCor website atwww.ActiveScoliosisCare.com.  BStrong4Life NewsOsteoporosis The Surgeon General states that increases in bone mineral density, to prevent or reverse the effects of osteoporosis, are stimulated by maximum loading on the musculoskeletal system. Regular, proper use of the BS4L™ System enables the user to safely achieve such maximum loading, and therefore helps combat the effects of osteoporosis. How BioDensity Works The BStrong4Life system involves four simple yet comprehensive isometric exercises: the chest press, leg press, core pull-up and vertical lift. A person performs each exercise on the equipment, as hard as they can, for 5 seconds. The equipment’s display panel informs them of the force they have produced. All four exercises take less than one minute to complete and are performed once a week. Active Encouragment"Any time you sincerely want to make a change, the first thing you must do is to raise your standards. When people ask me what really changed my life eight years ago, I tell them that absolutely the most important thing was changing what I demanded of myself. I wrote down all the things I would no longer accept in my life, all the things I would no longer tolerate, and all the things that I aspired to becoming." - Anthony RobbinsQuestions or Comments?Do you have a question about health, posture, chiropractic, neck or back pain, sports injuries, scoliosis, BStrong4Life, etc., that you would like Dr. Leif to answer?
