This month we spotlight Dr. Chuck Greenwood who has been practicing wholistic health for 23 years. In 1990, he was introduced to Network Chiropractic or to what is now called Network Spinal Analysis {NSA}. After learning and practicing the NSA model, Dr. Greenwood began to realize that true health "already is" and it is not something to be obtained. He now practices NSA in Los Angeles, California, assisting his practice members in discovering their true health.

How many of you have been seeking to achieve a healthier body or what you may consider to be optimal health? Most of us, that are health conscious, have been trying every means possible to get better health, more energy, more vitality and even longevity. Our typical approach has been to change our diets, drink hi-tech purified water, take the most advanced nutritional supplements, breathe air from "state of the art" air filters, program our minds with dynamic positive affirmations, exercise with the best trainers, along with the best array of health practitioners.

With all of this and more, we still have not managed to grasp that elusive healthy body. Despite all of our efforts, time, and expense, we are still on that treadmill going nowhere. It always seems like, if I only did this, or add this, then I would have IT !....finally! And this goes on and on, the search for the "magic pill."

So, why does this happen? In our society, we have been taught to seek outside of ourselves to get what we think we are lacking. To get that which we perceive is missing. Therefore, we desperately search and search outside of ourselves and never really obtain the goal we set out to achieve in the first place.

So, my message to you this day is to remember and to know that HEALTH IS WHO YOU ARE! It is not something that can be obtained, purchased, achieved or acquired. It is a "state of being." It is your very essence. It already is. What does this mean? Well, in my 23 years as a health practitioner, I realized that TRUE HEALTH can only be experienced when the connection with spirit has occurred. Once this has taken place, we can enjoy a healthier and happier life. We no longer have to try to get health because HEALTH IS WHO WE ARE.

The NSA protocol is a profound approach to health awareness. By using a series of light touches and gentle adjustments, the life force in the body is activated. Then, the stress and tension caused by stored physical, mental, emotional and chemical traumas are released. These traumas are considered to be the blocks that can keep the awareness of who we are from being fully realized.
