When You Die

I was working for a chiropractor in Grand Haven in 2010.

My joints hurt every day.

I'd just published my book BOD-E-NOMICS: Your Body is Your Business and YOU are the CEO with nurse Viki Goldberg. We wrote about how your body, eating, mind, and money are all connected. How taking care of your body is a full-time job.

I thought I was doing everything right.

Eating whole foods. Organic as much as possible. Growing my own food.

Getting adjusted regularly. I knew I was in alignment.

But my joints still hurt.

So one day I asked my chiropractor: "When am I going to stop hurting?"

He said, "When you die."

The Woman Who Read My Book

Not long after, Eileen Albrecht reached out.

She'd bought my book at the Health Hutt and wanted to meet me.

My first groupie! I was so excited.

We met at what used to be The Grand. She told me her story—she'd already read mine—and introduced me to Juice Plus+. Fruits, veggies, and berries in a capsule.

I said, "That's nice, but I already eat really well. I don't need your product."

Plus, I thought it was pretty expensive.

That night I had a dream.

I needed to order from her. The extra money would come to cover the investment in my health.

I've learned to follow my dreams.

I started with the chewables—because it's difficult for me to remember to take pills, but easy to remember to eat candy.

What Changed

A few months after eating Juice Plus+ regularly, my chiropractor said something I'll never forget.

"When I adjust you now, it feels young and springy. You used to be difficult to adjust and felt old and crusty."

When he said that, I noticed something else.

My joints didn't ache as much anymore.

Now, 15 years later, the only time my body hurts is when my muscles are workout sore.

I rarely get sick. When I do, I recover quickly.

I never realized how important good nutrition is.

And thankfully, I have access to that resource.

The Lesson

Your body is talking to you.

Every day.

Through pain. Through fatigue. Through the way it responds to what you eat, how you move, and how you care for it.

I was doing a lot of things right—whole foods, growing my own vegetables, regular adjustments.

But I was missing something my body needed.

And because I listened to a dream, followed the nudge, and tried something new, everything changed.

What's Your Body Asking For?

Maybe it's not Juice Plus+.

Maybe it's strength training.

Maybe it's better body mechanics.

Maybe it's saying no to that extra client on Friday.

Maybe it's finally booking that massage you keep putting off.

Your body has been asking.

What would change if you listened?
