Adrenal Fatigue

 

Adrenal fatigue is showing up a lot with my clients lately so I thought I would jump on here and explain what it is and what the signs are if you're experiencing it.

It's a very common, stress related issue which affects the cortisol levels in the body and leads to a less than diserable state of being. In other words, burn out!

Signs/symptoms include:

  • Lack of energy

  • Lack of motivation

  • Craving carbohydrates, sugar and caffeine

  • Poor sleep

  • Mood swings

  • Difficulty focusing or remembering

  • Mild depression and anxiety

 

Our adrenals are also tied to our fight and flight repsonse and as we navigate the challenges of every day life, we are constantly triggering these responses which releases adrenaline and cortisol from our adrenal glands.

 

Ways to bring ourselves back into balance:

  • Supplements like Vitamin B, folic acid, Vitamin C, etc.

  • Breathing techniques

  • A healthy diet

  • Adequate sleep

  • Exercise

  • Reducing caffeine and other stimulants

  • Engaging in a hobby

And if you're having issues with implementing positive change, book in for a kinesiology session to help address any blockages that may be hindering you from getting out of your adrenal funk!
