Stubborn Shoulder

I have had a stubborn right shoulder for about 15 years. It would often crack, pop, and be very tight.  I have worked on it and stretched it but nothing ever seemed to last. There is a stretch where you put your hand behind your back and see how high up your back you can take your hand. For a long time there has been a huge difference between my right and left. It came from playing baseball. 

But, recently I started trying a much gentler approach. I started doing that same stretch but very gently and adding the Touchpoints by giving a light touch to the areas that felt restricted. I have seen more change in my shoulder from this gentle approach than anything I have ever tried. 

The other day I was reading in Zechariah and in verse 7:11 God says the people turned a stubborn shoulder to him.  I didn't realize there was such a thing as a stubborn shoulder, but that is the phrase God uses. The stubborn shoulder was an unwillingness to change. Whether it is a stubborn shoulder, stubborn body fat, or stubborn people you will see more change with a gentle approach. Trying to force change only causes anger. 

What's New

Inside of the Abundant Life Blueprint I have been adding new workouts to the toolbox along with tracking sheets and video demonstrations of all the exercises. Recently I developed a new workout system that consists of 4 phases because I have learned that the biggest key to fitness is thinking of it in a series of steps. Each phase builds on the last and sets you up for continual progress.
