SUMMARY:Building CommUnity and Wellness One Step at a Time: Women's Health and Hormones with Kamie and Jenna
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM IN LIVE! \n\nAdvertising has us chasing cars and clothes\, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don’t need.” The movie Fight Club \nSociety places a badge of honor on those who are over-committed and sustaining a busy life. With continual outside pressure\, the adrenal glands must work overtime to make enough stress hormones to maintain the constant cycle. \nOur bodies’ adrenals struggle to support cortisol’s increased need and respond by stealing from our thyroid and reproductive systems. Eventually\, our bodies can’t keep up with the demand. The endocrine system then gives signals that something is off. This causes some common symptoms such as weight gain and\, in some cases\, extreme weight loss; increased menopausal\, perimenopausal\, or PMS symptoms; infertility\, decreased energy\, cravings for sugary or salty foods\, digestive issues\, high or low blood pressure; feeling overwhelmed\, anxious\, or moody; reduced concentration and brain fog; compromised immunity\, sleeping issues\, decreased libido\, and inability to slow down. \nTake a moment to ask yourself a few questions.  \n\nDo I startle easily when the phone rings or when I hear a loud noise? \nDo I feel anxious about checking calls\, texts\, emails\, and mail? \nDo I focus my energy on things that could go wrong today\, tomorrow\, a week from now\, in the future? \nDo I focus more on the one thing that went wrong during my day rather than the things that went right? \nDo I feel anxiety\, stress\, and worry for no particular reason? \nDo I feel anxiety\, stress\, and fear for whatever reason? \nDo I have panic attacks? \nDo I have depression? \nAm I exposed to environmental toxins\, like paint smells\, plastics\, industrial and city pollution\, new construction\, renovation projects\, new furniture\, or a new car?\nDo I experience any of the following symptoms with my menstrual cycle: headaches\, mood swings\, acne\, bloating\, constipation\, heavy or scanty bleeding\, clots\, painful cramps\, irregular period\, pain during ovulation\, or bleeding between cycles? \nDo I use synthetic hormones of any kind\, like birth control pills\, fertility drugs\, or hormone replacement therapy for menopausal symptoms? \nDo I have hot flashes\, insomnia\, heart palpitations\, heart disease\, osteoporosis\, accelerated heartbeat\, thyroid trouble of any kind\, low immunity\, infertility\, cancer\, diabetes\, adrenal burnout\, or endocrine disorders? \n\nIf you said yes to any of these questions\, you likely have a hormonal imbalance.  \nOur Focus for Discussion: \n\nUnderstanding hormones\nCortisol: the good\, the bad\, and the ugly\nExploring the relationship between estrogen and progesterone\, fertility\, PMS\, and menopause. \nIncrease knowledge of actions and experiences and how they affect hormones\nA reflection on what our cycle tells us\n\n\nZOOM IN LIVE CLICK HERE!
