Tune in!

How is it that people pay so little attention to their bodies?? No really...
"I went to the hospital because I was having stomach pains, and I was in labour!" ?????????? SaY wHaT? What did you miss? The weight gain, the lack of menstration, the baby moving, maybe weird cravings? Granted some, SOME of these women may have continued life as normal right till the point, but most likely they didn't want to know and didn't pay attention!
"I have a headache, and my eyes are dry, maybe I'm allergic to something."..."Well, have you drank any water today?"..."No, why?" Gahhhh! Really? Your brain floats in water, your eyes float in water... so if you don't have enough of it....
"I went in for a physical and I am healthier then the doctor!" Buddy, you are 300lbs, and you smoke like a freakin chimney, what in gods name is your doctor like?
"Do you have a pain killer?"..."Maybe, why?"..."I have a bit of a headache... toothache... backache... cramps... muscles pain... "(daily occurance)..."The doctor says I have a stomach ulser." Huh, HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?
"My little guy was home sick from school for a couple days, I felt so bad for him, so made him pancakes and gave him icecream." awww, how, wait, you did WhAt?? You fed him crap, and more crap, ontop of the crap his body was trying to get rid of? Great parenting!
No, I am not the most health concious person in the world, I eat junk food, and go outside without my jacket on, but I at least try to listen when my body yells at me.
Milk=phlemy throat, so I don't drink milk.
Too much sugar=soar throat, so when I am sick, I don't eat sugary stuff.
My entire girl cycle is off= appointments.
No water=a body that isn't 90% water like it's supposed to be, so when I hurt a little, I drink water just to see what happens.
Pills=chemicals/possibly addictive and/or harmful substances, so when I am feeling yucky, I see what the earth can offer first, resort to chemicals if that doesn't work.
Ingesting chemicals=bad, so I don't smoke (does anyone at all have an excuse for this anymore?) and I really try to limit processed anything.
Our body doesn't whisper, it yells, all the time! Why do most of us choose only to listen to the good stuff? It's like having a friend that we only visit with when we need to talk, but are busy when they need to talk.
People...TUNE IN!
