Energy flows through the body along meridians, or pathways. When energy flows smoothly, you are in balance. And balance helps the immune system do its job of fighting off viruses and keeping you healthy.

But when energy gets blocked, toxic dams build up that affect the energy flow throughout your body and put you out of balance. What causes these blockages?

Physical ailments, injuries, and chronic conditions can impact the body’s energy balance. But the biggest culprits are emotions and thoughts. On one hand, a positive attitude can support balance, but on the other hand, negative thinking can take you out of balance faster than a blink of the eye. So being proactive is the best way to help yourself stay ahead of the game. 

This past year-and-a-half, so many of us have been on an emotional roller coaster. I hear how people are feeling frustrated and finding it hard to stay focused, handle everything on their plate, and get things accomplished. Have you noticed yourself more on edge than usual? It’s tricky to feel grounded and balanced when you’re experiencing upsetting emotions, stress, anxiety, or a sense of waiting for the next shoe to drop. 

Your feelings are important because they give you information about what you need to address in your body.  Whether it’s frustration, worry, fear, or sadness, you can help minimize the discomfort before it takes your breath away. It begins with awareness. When you are aware of what is going on around you, and within you, you can transform your old patterns and emotions.

Acupressure Supports Balance and Wellness

The good news is that you can calm yourself and reduce upsetting emotions whenever you need to. The relief is in your fingertips — through a practice of self-help acupressure. Like acupuncture, acupressure has been around for thousands of years. Acupressure, however, requires no needles. You simply apply a light, gentle touch to access the energy balance points that are located on the energy meridians that run throughout your body.

choose your different outcome this year.  You need to decide first that you want to commit to choose a different life.  It's not impossible to create health, but you do need to decide that you will do everything in your power to make health a reality. 

You need to decide that how you eat is going to change.  You need to decide that how you move will change.  If you want to lose weight, you are not going to diet, you are going to eat to be healthy and the weight is going to take care of itself.  If you are exhausted all the time, you are going to choose to get seven continuous hours of sleep every night.  You are going to choose to cook so that you control the nutrients that you are getting from your food.  You are going to choose to eat the full rainbow of fruits and vegetables because they work together to create health, and you are going to choose to eat organic.  You are, literally going to choose health with everything you do.

There is a quote that I have always loved.  Make it YOUR mantra for 2021.

“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness.  Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one commits oneself, then Providence moves too.  All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred.  A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way. Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.

Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it!”   William Hutchison Murray

Take back your power in 2021.  Stop sabotaging the life that you want. Commit to what you want and recognize that you have the power to create it.   Focus on what it is that would create the life you want to live and then choose to make it happen.

If you need help reaching the goals you want to achieve, then hire a coach to help you get there.
