What gets in the way of attaining health goals?
Stress, fear, shame…and discipline. Yes, discipline might seem contradictory, however, the stem of disciplinary action, if rooted in a desire to ‘fix’, this positive and affirmative principle can shift to a defective resource to try and force solutions.
Patience, persistence, gentle discipline, professional support, accurate testing, acceptance, supplementation and care make up the base for change and healing.
