Recently I've been reading about Dr. Sara Gottfried, she's an OB with a mix of eastern and western medicine and LOTS of data to back up what she's saying. I'm intrigued by this idea of balancing your adrenals... and by how she suggests to do that. I'm not about to spend the $500 on her four week course, but I love her tidbits... like....
Paleo Diet
Sprint 8 excercise (four times per week)
breathing (in one nostril, out the other)
butterfly pose for five minutes
Fish Oil supplements
Getting 8-10 hours of sleep !!! What!?! That's awesome.
Eating organic (she also suggests no dairy! or coffee!- not yet for me)
I'm gonna start off with going to bed earlier... making my mental bed time 10 and not 11, er 12.
I'm gonna have my cortisol and vit D levels checked at my next dr visit and see what's what. Hope insurance covers it!
Anyway, I feel GREAT today with my nine hours of sleep and practicing the butterfly and then doing a neck stretch she teaches on youtube!!!
Time for household martha stewart time! Here I come, laundry and dishes!
