Episode 9: Are You Running on Stress Hormones?
Welcome back to the podcast! We are kicking off season 2 by talking all things stress hormones. Most of us are probably familiar with the all-too-popular "adrenal fatigue" diagnosis. What if there was a bigger picture to this story? If we zoom out from that acute focus on the body, we can see that there is a whole-body, systemic issue that's taking place. In this episode, we discuss how to support your system as a whole, break out of the "fight or flight" state, rebalance your hormones, and get back to the state of rest & digest.
