Learn More »Connection: Connecting with others and maintaining our social interactions is a vital part of managing stress. Isolating ourselves can increase anxiety, depression, and feelings of overwhelm. Our social interactions can help provide a sense of connection and safety during times of stress. This includes intimacy with our partner, maintaining friendships, and quality time with our children, parents, and other loved ones. Tip: We spend a lot more time with technology instead of with other people these days. Take the time to really connect to those around you, without technology intervening. Make a conscious effort to put your phone away and spend some real quality face to face time with others. Vitamin C- Your adrenal glands have a high concentration of vitamin C and require vitamin C to produce cortisol. This means your adrenals are using up vitamin C at a more rapid rate, and need extra replenishment, during and after periods of high stress. Vitamin C supplementation has been shown to help lower cortisol levels, especially after intense stress (such as running a marathon). Note: If you’re going to supplement, quality and source matter. Some vitamin C supplements are high in sugar – watch out! Also, look for a vitamin c supplement that is from a non-corn source (corn is usually the reason that too much vitamin C can cause diarrhea) to allow you to take higher doses without undesireable side effects.
