Our spinal column is probably the most problematic area of the human body. Its disc, nerve and muscle problems are famous. We certainly all know about the pain and stiffness and let's not forget about the headaches, neck tension, shoulder difficulties, and all the excruciating symptoms in our lower back and legs. Yes - at some point in our life, likely we all will experience the telltale signs that something isn't quite right with our back. Which begs the question, "Why?" Why does this area give us so many problems? Is it because of its mechanical nature? Is it our posture? Or, is it how we lift, move, sit, or stand? Perhaps the problem is that we just weren't meant to stand upright. But then again, it could be what we eat or all the stresses life so freely provides. And what about gravity - that surely has an effect on us as well - doesn't it? The theories abound. The explanations are plentiful. And yet, our back problems are getting worse. More of us are having problems. The symptoms are lasting longer and returning sooner, and ... Enough It's time to know why The human spine is so much more than a mechanical structure Yes, it holds us upright and it gives us problems. But that is just the tip of the iceberg. With its muscles, ligaments and nerves, this stack of twenty-four vertebrae mirrors our thoughts, shapes our body and impacts every aspect of our health and life. There are secrets surrounding this structure that need to be told. Book I: Linking Mind and Body explains the mirroring capacity of our body, the neurological connections between spine and systems and why it is that our back gives us so many problems. Once the foundation is in place, the book goes on to examine the first three steps in any process designed to return to us the health and happiness we all rightfully deserve. These are simple steps anyone can do and the only reason we haven't all done them is because no one has told us just how important they are. Part I does just that.
