Adrenal Function & HPA Axis

The HPA Axis is short for “Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis.” Stress impacts and signals your brain, which then tells your Adrenal glands to produce the stress hormone – CORTISOL. Learn how to regulate and support your nervous system, to allow for optimal response, versus a default stress reaction.

Step out of “fight or flight” and into resilient health!
