The Only Way to End Stress and Lower Cortisol
Chronic stress can affect every system in the body. Let’s talk about how to lower cortisol and relieve stress.
We’ve been told that our environment is dangerous, which causes a lot of stress and anxiety. But, while our environment may be dangerous, it’s not as dangerous as many are led to believe — and it’s not healthy to keep your attention on this negativity.
It’s vital to change your viewpoint on your environment and see it in a positive light, as well as filter out some of the negativity you’re exposed to.
Chronic stress can potentially lead to various health issues, including:
- A weak microbiome and more pathogenic bacteria
- A poor immune system
- Inflammation
- Fertility problems
- High insulin levels
- High triglycerides and LDL and low HDL
- Poor detoxification
- Slow digestion
- Poor absorption of vitamins and minerals (including vitamin D)
- Tightened fascia
- Cognitive problems
- The activation of bad genes and suppression of good genes
Two of the best ways to deal with stress and cortisol:
- Change the viewpoint of your environment and filter out various threats of danger
- Get space in nature
- Connect with your environment
2. Physically flush out accumulated adrenaline and cortisol
- Exercise
- Do physical work
