The 12 Principles from Village Fitness & Physical Therapy, Glendora
These are the 12 principles we believe in living our lives by. Click on a principle to learn why it’s important and how you can incorporate it into your life
Rest Deeply
True health change can only happen in an environment of deep rest. Learn how to make it happen!
Solve Pain
To live a healthy, active life, you need to understand how pain works in your body.
Get Outside
We’ve been trained to fear the dangers of sun and to lather with sunscreen…but what if we’ve gotten the story all wrong?
Don't Go It Alone
Human interactions have become less frequent than ever before…could it be that this is the missing link to many American’s health problems?
Build Strength For Longevity
For folks over 40, STRENGTH is crucial to being healthy and active…but you’ve got to train differently.
Attain Alignment
The human body is not symmetrical…but if left to our own devices we get STUCK in poor patterns of movement.
Breathe Freely
Of all bodily functions, accessing oxygen is top dog. Go a few hours without a drink and your tongue will feel dry. Go a few days without food and your tummy will rumble. But go a few minutes without air and you will literally be on the brink of brain death. It’s safe to say breathing is a top priority in the human body.
Escape The Sedentary
Aliens have come to planet earth. Thankfully, these aliens are more like ET’s parents and less like the ones from the scary Alien movie series.
Source Responsibly
Does the sourcing of our animal products matter? It’s time to put a “steak” in the ground with an emphatic “yes!” Will we be healthy or progress towards disease?
Prioritize Veggies
Since the dawn of the human race, vegetation has been the foundation of the food chain. We foraged for vegetables and hunted animals that grazed on vegetables.
Control Carbs
Controlling carbs is really important for health. Even though we’ve been raised to believe that the sugars in fruits and the “complex carbohydrates” from grains are a healthy source of calories
Eat healthy fats
Natural fats are healthy! You heard us right! In fact, they’re necessary to a balanced diet & weight-loss protocol. Here’s everything you need to know about eating healthy fats!
