We Need Cortisol! 🤯

I had an epiphany moment about the stress hormone yesterday! 💡

I’ve been using the Ashwagandha adaptogen for several years as part of Isagenix for reducing cortisol & anxiety, feeling calm, better sleep, mood, PMS, and all it’s benefits. 😌

Recently my husband Ashkan purchased Extra Strength capsules and had noticed a significant difference in his mood throughout the day.

Knowing the benefits of Ashwagandha, I added 1 capsule to my daily supplements since it’s essential to keep cortisol levels low for getting pregnant, otherwise the body will not be a safe environment for an embryo to form and implant.

I’ve also been recommending it to my clients since most of them deal with anxiety and fear before we start working together, and I personally believe it’s always best to try out a natural herb first before resorting to synthetic drugs. 🤷🏻‍♀️

The last couple of weeks I started taking it first thing in the morning since cortisol levels spike when we first wake up…

So I was taking it BEFORE I left the house for volleyball and kept wondering why none of my caffeine drinks are working anymore… 🤣

It was neutralizing the effects of caffeine… DUH! 🙄

Just Monday I was telling a fellow volleyball friend that lately I feel great and high vibing, but don’t have my usual energy…

I am like the Energizer bunny and she was gone, not having the inner drive to be productive! 🐰

And then it hit me as Ashkan and I were talking about the effects of Ashwagandha on us and how it’s been great for Ashkan helping him sleep like a baby at night as well as other benefits too! 🥰

Yet it’s also making us too calm and it feels like it turns off that fire within. 🔥❤️‍🔥

I typically don’t stress so for me taking it when I don’t work out intensely or have an out of ordinary day of stress, it actually takes away all the cortisol that my body needs in order to DO things! 😳

That said, our body produces cortisol and adrenaline for a reason and the key is balance! ⚖️

If you think you could benefit from this Ashwagandha, I highly recommend it – see comments for Amazon link or DM me.

⁣My motto is: LIFE is a HEALing Journey! ❤️‍🩹

We’re always HEALing and peeling one layer at time, which includes learning too of course! 🥰

And as always, if you’re wanting to get to the ROOT of stress and anxiety, contact me so you’re not dependent on anything outside of YOU! 💁🏻‍♀️👇🏼
