Stress Management

Keep it Positive!

Although we don’t yet fully understand the mind/body connection, we do know that positive attitude can:

  • help improve mood, self-esteem and sense of well-being
  • decrease depression, anxiety and hostility
  • lessen pain and other bodily symptoms
  • speed recovery
  • enhance immune function
  • extend longevity

We also know that to a great extent, our attitude is determined by how we decide to think about events, This “self-talk,” whether positive or negative, is so powerful that it determines not just our emotions, but the condition of our physical and mental well-being as well.

Three simple action steps to help optimize your emotional health:
  1. REALIZE YOU HAVE CONTROL. The great thing about your attitude is that it’s yours. You cannot control what others say or do, but you can control how you react to it. Simply put, no one can put you in a bad mood unless you give them permission!

  2. BE THANKFUL. Put things in perspective. You are alive, something that billions of those before us cannot say. You have food, shelter and safety. Something that millions alive today do not enjoy. Appreciate your countless blessings!

  3. DON’T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF. Remember what’s important, and ignore the little things. Focus on the larger picture and you’ll find less frustration in your daily interaction with others. The things that matter most are your health and happiness and your family’s health and happiness.

Dr. Mike Asks some important questions of interest to Omro residents - Chiropractor Omro Dr. Mike Asks...

Can those with osteoporosis get chiropractic care?
Of course. When developing a care plan, we consider the unique circumstances of each patient. There are many ways we can adjust the spine. The chiropractic method we select will be best suited to your age, size and unique situation.
What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Omro parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.
