A lot of people these days are dealing with adrenal fatigue, and even this thing called chronic fatigue syndrome.
I believe there are three main reasons why this happens.
1) You live a busy lifestyle
Number one is that we live in a world now that requires us to go, go, go, push, push, push, build, build, build, work, work, work. So, we’re often stressed out and finding ourselves stuck in a cycle of constant output.
And then, when you start feeling tired, you feel the pressure to keep going! This leads you to overstimulate using coffee, tea, drugs and other things. All of this results in you not actually giving your body time to rest, so it’s under a constant state of stress.
Solution – I know it’s going to take some work to re-structure your lifestyle so that you’re not stressed all the time. But, I believe we can be more effective and get more done with the right structure.
Start by creating clear boundaries around work and rest. Even just having a set time to switch off screens or stop answering messages can make a huge difference! Try blocking out small windows of time in your day for doing breathing exercises like my 7 Rounds of 7, soaking up some sunlight, getting some gentle movement or simply sitting still.
It doesn’t have to be perfect; it just has to be intentional. When your nervous system gets regular chances to downshift, everything flows better. Energy, focus, and joy included!
2) You’ve lost your drive
Number two is that a lot of people have actually just lost drive.
They’re no longer curious. Life is no longer an adventure. They become complacent and there’s nothing that interests them anymore.
So, we just get fatigued because there’s no motivation in life.
Solution – There are also things you can put into place to help reignite curiosity and make life feel like an adventure again! Start by carving out time each week for doing things that bring you joy, even in small doses. Things like reading a book, taking a walk in nature, listening to music, working on a creative project or learning something new just for the fun of it.
Build a simple weekly rhythm that includes moments you can look forward to, so it’s not just all about responsibilities. The goal isn’t to overhaul everything overnight, but to remember what lights that inner fire.
Find out what gets you excited, so you’re not complacent anymore.
3) You have a poor diet
I know there’s a very specific response that happens from your adrenal glands when your diet is out of order.
When you’re eating the wrong combinations of foods, it can get stuck in different places. There might be excess fat clogging up your circulatory system, pancreas and kidneys.
Every time you eat you’re creating this adrenal response. And over time that response starts to wear out the adrenal glands.
Solution – I know there’s a very specific way to live your lifestyle that allows the adrenal glands and kidneys (and your body in general) to really heal itself. And there are some processes we can use to radically change and heal our endocrine system, which includes our adrenal glands.
So, my recommendation would be for every individual to do is actually sit down with one of my health coaches.
I have coaches called Tolman Health Coaches who have gone through a massive process of learning how to sit down with somebody and guide them to completely transform their lifestyle.
They’ll connect with you (this can be done in person or online) and take some eye photos of your irises and your sclera. Then they’ll assess the areas that are congested, potentially toxic, whether there is an infection and if so, how bad is it?
Is it a minor thing that can be corrected quickly? Or is it a major thing that’s going to take some time to really heal?
Then they can work with you to create an entire plan of how to transform your lifestyle so you can get your life back. You can get your energy back. And you can literally start to crack on with your passion and the things that you love in life.
So, definitely check out my Tolman Health Coaches. I highly recommend taking the time to sit down and work out a plan that will get you back into a really good place. You deserve it!
