About this episode

 Discover five proven methods to manage stress effectively and improve your mental and physical well-being. Learn how breathwork, sauna, yoga, adrenal supplements, and music can help you feel calmer, boost energy, and regain balance in your life.

5 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  1. Breathwork for Calm: Diaphragmatic breathing activates the parasympathetic nervous system, lowers blood pressure, and increases heart rate variability.
  2. Sauna Therapy: Regular sauna use reduces cortisol, inflammation, and risk of dementia, while improving heart and brain health.
  3. Yoga’s Stress Relief: Yoga balances the nervous system, reduces cortisol, and promotes mental clarity through mindful movement and stillness.
  4. Adrenal Supplements: Nutrients like Vitamin B5, L-theanine, and magnesium restore adrenal function, regulate cortisol, and calm the nervous system.
  5. Power of Music: Music activates parasympathetic responses, improves recovery, and uses vibration to reset the nervous system for relaxation.
FEATURED PRODUCT

Zen, featuring bovine adrenal gland extracts, is designed to support adrenal function, enhancing your body’s response to stress and boosting energy levels—key factors in establishing and maintaining new health habits, as discussed in this episode.
