On the way to bed, my son asked me to carry him up the stairs to bed. And my answer was, “I can’t tonight, my back hurts too bad”
After I said it, I realized that I broke his little heart, but I also broke a promise to myself. From the minute he was born, I told myself that as long as he wanted to be held, I’d be strong enough and healthy enough to hold him for as long as he wanted.
I had to tell him I couldn’t pick him up, due to a decision I made weeks ago to come up with excuses for why I was too busy to get adjusted. And in that moment I realized I was actually making excuses to be the best version of his mom I could be.
So that night, I booked my adjustment.
Does this sound like something you’ve done? Have you made up hundreds of excuses for why you can’t take care of yourself and see your health as more than just a pain you push through? Your pain (and health) affects your ability to show up 100% for your loved ones.
Don’t go one more day. Use the link in my bio to book your adjustment and be the best version of yourself.
