I'm sure you have all heard of the "12 step" programs, which are supposed to help a person reach a seemingly unreachable goal. I remember the "8 minute Abs" videos, or "7 Minute Abs"( and if your not satisfied you get the 8th minute free) videos where length of time involved increases a person's interest in purchasing said videos.
It is a sad reality that we have so many things on our "to do" list that many necessary tasks are divided up into miniscule time portions. Although it is a sad reality, it is also a FALSE reality. The truth is that we can make time for anything we see as a priority. Don't have time for breakfast? Try getting up 30 minutes earlier. Your TV shows make you stay up late? Tape them and watch at a later time. I think that the "I am just too busy" phrase should just be taken out of our vocabulary. I have heard countless patients tell me that they have no time to exercise, yet when I ask them about their daily routine, 4 hours of their time is consumed sitting on a couch watching their "shows".
Are you wanting to make a change in this new year? I will be promoting a 7 step program designed to increase your energy levels, and to help you make time to accomplish them. This is just the introduction and I hope you will join me in my quest to bring everybody we can reach to a better level of healthy living.
In Good Health,
Dr. Ara
