Today's hot topic for this week's episode is adrenal fatigue. After a member of the Open Sky Fitness Facebook Group asked about it and how we can deal with it over the holidays.

The basic reason why we even experience adrenal fatigue is because we're all stressed out all the time. Stressed out by 8-10 hour jobs, raising families, being on our cell phones and constantly in communication with other people. Life used to be so much simpler when we didn't have so much stimulation from computers and cell phones.

Today we'll go over:

  • What adrenal fatigue really is and why we experience it.
  • Symptoms of adrenal fatigue
  • The science behind adrenal fatigue and what it has to do with our cortisol and sex hormone levels.
  • How light exposure including blue light from technology affects our cortisol levels.
  • Why hypothalamus pituitary adrenal access (HPA access) is actually a better name than adrenal fatigue.
  • How we can heal our minds and bodies through fitness, nutrition, and recovery
