<p>According to a recent study more than half of insured Americans regularly take prescription drugs for chronic health problems.  In some cases an individual may take 18 or more drugs daily (<a href="http://www.star-telegram.com/national_news/story/641467.html">here</a>)  Yes, some would call this progress.  If people are not being healed, which means to make whole, what is happening here.   Until the public demands the choice of qualified health practitioners this is not going to get better.  Are you aware that all of these drugs are seeping into the <a href="http://continuumwellness.org/blog/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&amp;post=62">drinking water</a>?  Every living creature needs clean water.  How will this cycle back onto the public.  Our food supply also comes from this tainted water.</p>
<p>The first step to improving your health is to know that it can happen.  No one is meant to live captive of pill after pill.  Why is it important to know you can improve your health?  You must have the awareness that it is a choice.  The actions you take lead to a result.  It takes motivation and daily choices that lead to the goal.  All of the information that is available will not help unless you begin to use the information.</p>
<p>Second, stop looking for a quick fix. Seek to heal the cause of the problem.  If you are stressed out, learn how to relax and practice.   If you are addicted to salt, learn how to season your food.  If you are angry, bitter or sad learn how to find joy and peace.</p>
<p>Explore.  Seek out sound information.  Is it easy?  You decide.  If it is worth it to you start now.  Find a buddy.  Pray.  Work with a qualified practitioner.  And know that it is possible.  Start now, begin the process of healing your life.</p>
