I cannot wait to hear your feedback on today’s episode because I think you’re really going to vibe with it! Part of the reason this podcast is called “MIND your hormones” is because our MENTAL & EMOTIONAL health is JUST AS IMPORTANT as our PHYSICAL health & that’s what we’re getting into today! We're HOLISTIC beings and in order to see TRUE TRANSFORMATION we need to heal & nurture ourselves in a HOLISTIC way. The idea for today’s episode started with having a full on MELTDOWN the other day about being over the whole Covid situation.⁣In March I was ok with it bc it was an OPPORTUNITY to stop & realize what’s important.⁣⁣It allowed me to GROW my then SIDE HUSTLE into my now full-time career: teaching how to use NUTRITION & LIFESTYLE to IMPROVE the QUALITY of your life by NATURALLY balancing HORMONES.⁣⁣I’m SO grateful for that, despite the horrible circumstances.⁣⁣I fully acknowledge the pain SO MANY faced & still are & my heart goes out to them.⁣⁣Most recently, the severity is increasing as it was in March & it feels like a post traumatic stress response.⁣⁣I’m OVER feeling NERVOUS to be around high risk fam members.⁣I hate that the holidays will be different & I can’t hug my gpa who’s going through chemo in fear I’ll expose him & make it worse.⁣⁣It’s an IMPOSSIBLE situation we’re ALL learning to navigate in REAL TIME.⁣⁣This MENTAL & EMOTIONAL stress 100% affects our hormones & overall health.⁣ Which is why if you’re only focused on diet & exercise you won’t see true transformation.⁣We’re NOT just a PHYSICAL body. We have a MENTAL & EMOTIONAL body that are just as IMPORTANT.⁣⁣I’m SO blessed to be in a MUCH better situation than many & FULLY recognize that.⁣⁣But that doesn’t mean it’s NOT affecting me.⁣⁣We need to honor that this pandemic is IMPACTING our HORMONE HEALTH.⁣⁣When our stress hormone CORTISOL increases it causes PROGESTERONE(a hormone necessary for pregnancy, metabolism, thyroid, skin, hair, bones, moods etc)to decrease.⁣Just like we brush our teeth daily, we NEED to practice MENTAL hygiene DAILY.⁣⁣We need to implement things like JOURNALING, MEDITATION, MOVEMENT, DAILY to PROCESS the EMOTIONS we face & TRANSFORM the stress so they don’t BUILD UP & cause OVERWHELM.⁣⁣WAYS WE CAN CONNECT! Come hangout with me on instagram @corinneangealica Join my FREE TEXT COMMUNITY to get weekly HORMONE HEALTH & MINDSET TIPS texted right to your phone!PRODUCT LINKS! Want professional grade supplements for 10% off?
