Good Habits Are Hard to Break

        Straighten Up America has been going well. We have introduced this program to several schools now, and they are in the process of integrating it into their day. After I’ve taught these exercises to people, the most frequent comment I hear is, “ Wow, I feel better!”


        One of our patients said to me the other day, “ It’s as hard to break a good habit as it is to break a bad one.” He is so right! I’m not sure many of us think about the good habits we have, but if you think about it, you probably have many good health habits that you don’t even think about because they are just normal for you.

         That’s what I would like these exercises to become for kids, a normal part of their day. Adults benefit from this program as well, and I would be happy to teach them to anyone who would like to learn. Just call first to make sure I’m in the office (850-875-1747), and not too booked up, then come by and I will teach you these free of charge. It takes only a few minutes to learn and a few minutes to do each day. The benefits will stay with you for a lifetime. Once you start it’s a hard habit to break!
