Cortisol!!!!

Cortisol: The Queen Bee of Your Stress + Hormone Hive 👑🐝

Cortisol is your body’s natural stress responder, made by your adrenal glands to help you think fast, move quick, and survive the chaos. It’s like the espresso shot your body makes when life gets extra. ☕⚡

💡 But here’s the plot twist:�Cortisol doesn’t just fuel your stress response—it also talks to your thyroid, your gut, your blood sugar, AND your hormones. Yup, she’s multitasking hard.

When cortisol is balanced ➝ You feel focused, energized, and resilient.�When it’s too high ➝ Hello, belly fat, bloating, hormone crashes, and 3am brain parties.�Too low? ➝ Total crash mode. No mojo, no motivation, just… meh.

✨Cortisol isn’t bad—she just needs boundaries.�Start here:

🔥 3 Ways to Support Balanced Cortisol:

1. Eat within an hour of waking – especially protein! Keeps blood sugar stable and cortisol calm.

2. Start your day with sunlight + movement – even a 10-minute walk resets your circadian rhythm and hormone flow.

3. Breathe before you eat – activating your parasympathetic system (aka rest + digest) helps cortisol chill and improves digestion.
