Learn to Approach your Health Challenge like an Experienced Fighter

                A serious health challenge seems to push your panic button which alarms you to take appropriate action. That is actually a good thing, but you can take the same action without the panic which inhibits your immune system.  Explore what karate taught me that affects the way I approach a health challenge.

                Let’s look at this with the analogy of a fighter.

·          The inexperienced fighter tenses up to increase strength where the confident experienced fighter is relaxed with a focused strike that has exceptional power. Do you panic when you face a health challenge?

·         The inexperienced fighter throws strikes as fast as possible hoping to hit his/her target. The experienced fighter provides focused strikes with amazing precision. Panic or precision; how do you deal with your health challenge?

·         The inexperienced fighter emotionally gets involved in his fight with uncontrolled emotions which often times work against him. Some emotional reactions tense you up and slow you down. The experienced fighter utilizes emotions as the powerful tools they are, but controlled and focused. Do emotions use you or do you use the power of your emotions?

                Now think of dealing with your health challenge like either an inexperienced fighter or an experienced fighter. You transform the fight by the way you perceive the challenge. Your fight is your health challenge and you have the power to control how you face your challenge. The good news is that is one of the easiest things to control; if you are willing to step back and trust your deepest inner wisdom.
