Keeping my body healthy is a full time job. My wellness team includes two massage therapists, an acupuncturist, a nurse practitioner, a D.O. who specializes in Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine, a Spiritual Director, and a Tai Chi Instructor. Plus a Primary Care Physician who I've only seen once when I recruited her.
These health practitioners are experts. Each of them is generous with advice that I can implement at home.
I won't name names, but this week, wrapping up our appointment, the instruction given was two words:
DO LESS
The words are stuck in my head. This may be the most difficult instruction I have been given. DO LESS.
Who is on your health care team? What could you do less? Can You DO LESS?
