If you’re feeling exhausted, wired, anxious, foggy in the head or constantly stressed, your cortisol may be out of balance.

Today we are going to be chatting about how to test your cortisol levels, and if you discover that they’re out of balance, how to rebalance them with lifestyle habits and supplementation.

We’re looking at:
• The 3 different cortisol testing options, and which one is right for you
• The key supplements, including vitamins, minerals and adaptogens, to help rebalance cortisol levels
• The lifestyle habits to focus on to shift your cortisol in a sustainable way

I turned 35 yesterday and I was sitting in a cafe with a coffee overlooking the beach here in Freshwater in Sydney. One of my friends sent me some questions to reflect on for my birthday so I sat down with my journal (for the first time in AGES) and started looking back on some of the things I’ve learned in the past year.

And then I got a bit carried away and decided to expand that list out to 35 lessons I’ve learned about health and healing, and I’m going to share those with you in today’s episode.

Have you been on your own personal healing journey for some time? Then this episode is for you!
