Change Unhealthy Habits

image of business people.
There are three things that have to happen to successfully change a habit. The first is that you must make the decision to change. When you make a decision, you are affirming to yourself that you are willing to go to any lengths to make your wishes come true. This means that you will need to completely eliminate the word "try" from your vocabulary. When you say "I'll try to do my exercises," you are leaving an open door to not doing them. Then in your mind, if you don't do your exercises, that's okay because you only said you would "try" to do them. If you want to successfully change your habits to live a healthier life, you cannot leave an open door to your old habits. You need to just do it, just make a decision and not look back.

The second thing is to act "as if." Whenever you change what you are doing, it will feel unnatural. It may feel like you are doing something wrong, funny, or something that is just not you. In a way you are right. When you change a habit, you are by definition acting in a way that is 'just not you.' But in a very short time, it will feel normal and it will seem strange that you ever acted any different. Changing habits is like starting a new job, the first couple of weeks are stressful and disorienting, but if you just hang in there, you will feel at home before you know it.

The third is to work on yourself every day. The highest demonstration of a healthy and growing self-image and self-esteem is the commitment to work on yourself each and every day. You experience an elevated consciousness when you realize your power to step up to your greatness or default to your weakness with every challenge, distraction and decision. Working on yourself with consistency and persistence connects you to your inner wisdom and inner strength to become unstoppable.

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "I had been experiencing severe radiating pain to my right hip and down my leg. I could hardly walk or ride in a car and this was going on three years. Medical Doctors couldn’t tell me what was wrong. Dr.Carmon explained to me what was wrong and after four treatments my hip pain was gone. Now I can run and ride in a car without pain. Thank you Dr. Carmon."
    -Amanda Howe
  • "When I first came to Dr. Carmon I had been suffering with neck pain and chronic headaches several times a week for a couple of years. The problem stemmed from a car accident I had been in one year earlier. I was on several medications that just made me feel sleepy and tired. After talking to Dr. Carmon about my condition he then performed some exams and explained to me that this condition was coming from my neck. I no longer have headaches and can work without fear of getting neck pain. I would recommend anyone with neck pain or headaches to see Dr. Carmon."
