Principle #24 in Chiropractic states that the innate healing ability within us is limited by the matter it has to work with. In other words, your body's ability to repair itself is only as good at the building material at its disposal - the right nutrients, DNA, etc. But healing limitations don't only come from matter. 

Limitations of understanding and belief can also stop the healing process in its tracks. How skeptical are you (or your family and friends) of your innate ability to heal?  Doubt and unbelief are just as powerful at hindering the healing process as a poor diet. When it comes to recovering from sickness and dis-ease, simply "hoping to get better" won't cut it. You need to really believe it, in order to achieve it.

What you think about, you bring about. Your state of health is more a product of your thoughts and beliefs than you realize. Make sure you're cultivating concepts of health, faith and resolve that support the work your Chiropractor is doing - instead of surrounding yourself with unbelievers and naysayers.
