As I described in my TEDx talk science suggests humans have been on the planet for between 100,00 and 150,000 years and for the entirety of that history, that’s what adrenalin has meant to the body. And we don’t just need iron for the transportation of oxygen around the body, which is hugely tied up with energy and metabolism; we also need good iron levels for thyroid hormone production.
This constant need to rush – this feeling that we’re never doing enough – is causing significant health problems in women. It’s for those who feel like people pleasing runs too much of their life and for those who have moments where they wonder when it will be their turn.If you rush through life, glorifying being busy, what equal and opposite reaction to yourself do you imagine? It all boiled down to one simple truth that so many of her patients shared: “None of it was a disease; it was just that nothing was working as well as it once did,” Libby says. Your body is hard-wired to react to stress in ways meant to protect you against threats from predators and other aggressors. Cortisol is important to blood pressure regulation and the normal functioning of several body systems including cardiovascular, circulatory and reproduction. There are biochemical consequences to this constant rush – resulting in imbalanced hormones, HPA axis dysfunction, sluggish thyroid glands and so on.
If a woman retains fluid, she usually feels “puffy and swollen” and this discomfort can impact the food choices she makes for the rest of the day, the way she speaks to the people she loves the most in the world and intimacy can fly out the window. It is important to realise that the way we eat, drink, move, think, believe and perceive the world affects our need to rush. Our liver function (detoxification processes) and digestion work better, so we experiencefar less bloating.
The moment you realise that it’s the Now that counts – then you have finally come to a turning point in Your Life, and I will congratulate you with all my heart. Estrogen wants a menstruating female to get pregnant every month of her life, whether that is on her agenda or not! Letting the "rest, digest, repair and reproduce" arm of our nervous system do its jobcan have the most profound effect on health.
Unexplained weight gain – you’re eating and moving the same way, or you feel like you’re eating a lot less than others but your body fat isn’t shifting.
Stress can affect this brain-gut communication, hence why we feel ‘butterflies’ in the stomach, and may trigger pain, bloating and other gut discomfort. And if you’ve thought while reading this, “Boy, I bet that’s got worse in the past decade,” you are bang on the money. A really common scenario I see is iron deficiency, because that is the most common nutrient deficiency in New Zealand, particularly amongst women of menstruation age, pregnant women and young children. Ournervous system plays a significant role in how we respond to stress, and it has a number of parts.
This course provides clarity, and understanding across a multi level approach to the chaos we as woman have become to believe is status quo.
Herbs such as Licorice and Ginseng contain plant steroid molecules that have a regulating effect on hormones, by causing the body to conserve cortisol and DHEA, and therefore helping the entire hormonal system adapt to stress.
