Michael McCright:
Massage & Holistic Health
Michael is a down-home boy from South Dakota. He's lived a lot of life and now he's ready to give a little back. He says, "If I'd known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself!"
Michael knows that wisdom is gained by experience but also believes that insight from others who have gone before can be equally important.
Michael spent 7 years in the Navy. In 1967, while teaching Electronics at the Treasure Island naval station, he was selected to teach Aerobics, a new exercise concept developed by Dr. Kenneth Cooper. By 1976, he was fully entrenched in corporate America, working his way up the corporate ladder. It was at that time that he joined Shaklee Corporation, a network marketing company, and began to seriously study nutrition.
By the 1980s, he had worked his way into the cherished Senior V.P. position he had always wanted, but he was working 10-12 hrs/day, 6 days/week, building their dreams and not his own. So, in 1987, he and an associate formed a company with a totally new concept in advertising. Five years and $850,000 later, they had contracts with 94.6% of grocery chains across the US, as well as major discussions and tentative ongoing contracts with some major corporations, but they had to close the doors due to lack of initial capital financing.
When he began having chronic back spasms. he visited Orthopedic surgeons, Physical Therapists, Chiropractors, Dr's of Acupuncture, Massage Therapists, you name it. If he thought it could help, he sought it out. He read Dr. Sarno's book, Mind Over Back Pain, which states: "As we hurt more, we do less, as we do less, we tighten up more, as we tighten up more, we hurt more." A vicious circle! So, he started working out more, 6 days/week, 1.5 hrs/day. It helped some, but not a lot. One day at the fitness center, a man introduced him to a nutritional product. Eleven days later, he noticed a profound change. He could put on his own socks! Without help! Wow!!
It was during this time, that he did a life examination and discovered one of his paradigms: That you work hard, play hard, you break, go to a Doctor, he fixes you, so you can continue to work hard and play hard. With that realization, he understood that change must come from within. "In retrospect, those problems were the best thing that could have ever happened to me. I have moved into the arena of Healing. Working with solutions instead of the symptoms. Working from the aspect of prevention instead of treatment. Knowing and understanding that "Together (with a Higher Power working in my life) I Can" have a tremendous impact on myself, others and this world in which we live."
His goal today is to assist one million people, directly or indirectly, to become happy, joyous, and free to live a GOD filled life. "My hope is that YOU decide to join US on the Journey."
