Hormones, the chemical messengers that control almost every single bodily process you have, might be THE most important balance of your body. Your hormonal system is a finely tuned, balanced machine. When it works well, we work well. And when it’s off, WE are off.  And because our body is so well-coordinated, an imbalance in one area can create a domino effect that we feel!  These effects result in lower quality of life for us, looking like fatigue, crankiness, weight gain, lower immunity, chronic conditions, and even disease. What can we do about it? Surprisingly, getting our hormones tested doesn’t always help, because the tests we have don’t measure the small imbalances that affect us on a daily basis - only the huge ones that need serious measures. THE most common hormone imbalance of the 21st century is cortisol imbalance, followed by estrogen imbalances for women.  When one of these is off, it causes issues for many of our other hormones that dictate our appetite, energy, and inflammation. This episode gives you straightforward strategies you can use to help put your hormones back in harmony.  When you focus on what you put IN and ON your body, and what you do WITH your body, you can see improvements in your hormones in as few as two weeks! What are these strategies? Activating your Vagus Nerve in simple ways throughout the day. Practicing gratitude. Avoiding xenoestrogens. And what REALLY makes a difference is our nutrition. You DO have a lot of control here.   Text me the word “Food” at 727-591-4959, and I’ll send you the food template that has given me so much more freedom of choice AND better hormone levels at the same time. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/elisa-m-pool/message
