    In this video, we’re going to talk about how to stay calm when you’re stressed and have high cortisol.
    Cortisol and adrenaline are the primary stress hormones that your adrenal glands produce.
    The adrenal glands have an outside and an inside. The inside part of the adrenals is made up of neurological tissue-this is the part that releases adrenaline. The outside is made up of glandular tissue-this is the part that releases cortisol.
    Both of these hormones help adapt your body to stress. The more stress you experience, the more your adrenal glands are activated and release stress hormones.
    Your body does not handle prolonged stress well; it’s meant to handle short bursts of stress, not chronic stress.
    The sympathetic nervous system is the part of your nervous system that handles your fight-or-flight mode. Your parasympathetic nervous system is the part of your nervous system that handles rest and digest mode.
    Stress isn’t always a bad thing-it’s what helps you progress and adapt to life. However, getting stuck in chronic stress can cause many issues throughout the body.
    The effects of stress can include:
    • Poor sleep
    • High heart rate
    • High blood pressure
    • Arterial inflammation
    • Cortisol resistance
    • Lowers immune function and inactivates the natural killer T-cells
    • Increased cancer risk
    • Poor memory
    • Brain fog
    • Increased risk of nutrient deficiencies (K+, B1, H+)
    How to stay calm:
    1. Do physical work or exercise
    2. Stay in action
    3. Take vitamin B1, vitamin D, magnesium, and potassium
    4. Get on a Healthy Keto and intermittent fasting plan
    5. Take herbal adaptogens
    6. Do breathing exercises
    7. Try acupressure stress extraction techniques

    Believe it or not I cleaned out 3 bedrooms got rid of a bunch of stuff and just finished painting my youngest daughter's room now that she has moved. I'm working on my kitchen and going through the garage. This has helped me so much. The rooms look empty but it has given me a feeling of control. I went through everything being organized has helped me feel better about the things I can't control and let God handle that part. Seeing all the clutter just made things worse.

    The first part to de-stressing/removing anxiety is to be kind to yourself. More often than not it’s the pressure we put on ourselves that’s causing the issue. Ask yourself, have you done everything that’s to be reasonably expected, if the answers yes then give yourself a break. Live in the present - be present. Give yourself permission to relax and actively choose the things you focus on, everything else is just noise. Sending good vibes to those that might need it.

What I have noticed, is that staying home is not good for me. I am also really deficient in vitamin D. I have decided to take control over my life and I do put a lot of pressure on my self. I will take it one day at a time. I will make plans with friends and laugh and I will grow up, which is something hard for me to do, but I know I can do it.

    Dr. Berg, I don't know if you will read this comment, but please know how much you have changed my life since I started watching your videos. THIS video though is the most impressive because this video is ME. I have high cortisol, low potassium, muscle twitches, tight myofascial tissue, thigh cellulite, constant fatigue, insomnia (poor sleep), esophageal dysphagia, poor memory, brain fog, weight gain around the belly.... This video right here was so eye-opening, moreso than the others of yours I've seen and I just want to thank you. I really have to work on this. Really. I am also a police dispatcher for 16 years... I have a LOT of stress at home and internal stress from childhood trauma. I will get migraines after a fight or flight event. So many things, I can go on and on... Just thank you. Thank you so much for the research you do and making it freely accessible to all. *tears*

    Is it appropriate to say I love you? I have been watching your videos everyday for the past week. I’m sitting here crying because chronic stress has been the primary issue for everything I’ve been experiencing. I have been trying to address individual problems without going to the root. I have felt so overwhelmed and to some degree helpless. I now feel like I have a substantial amount of tools to overcome this and have a better quality of life. I don’t even know if you still read comments from old videos but thank you Dr Berg💛

At least twice per month, she stays up for 24-36 hours, and she has done this as far back as I can remember as a child. She is and has presented about eighty-five percent of the symptoms you have outlined. Her immune system has been so compromised that she has an allergic reaction to Benadryl. Chronic constipation, heart disease, leg cramps, fluid retention, mood swings, are just a few of what you identified. Thanks Dr. Berg for your continued work.

    Swapped coffee for a variety of teas / water often and cut out adding sugars.
    Listen to music less and vary from different genres or music, use audible regularly and radio from time to time.
    Being mindful and describing the things I'm doing, how food looks or smells and I prepare or cook.
    Cold shower every so often.
    Cutting out carbs seems to have resolved my ibs and acid. I've just discovered the keto diet after getting benefits from low carb so I'm going to give it a go.

    I would say that this is ‘indirectly’ related… I am always tweaking the balance of electrolytes and minerals to prevent night cramps, with good success, but recently, I had an issue with bad cramps again. Raises cortisol and puts my body under stress. Cramps so bad that my foot would turn and I couldn’t walk for a few minutes. (I am flat footed, so if I have been on my feet alot during the day, my feet aren’t happy 😆)
    A few months ago, I woke up at the start of a bad cramp - normally I would tense up immediately in anticipation of what was coming - fight or flight? God literally spoke to me that night - He said STOP. BREATHE. WAIT. I forced myself to go against what my body was trying to do - tense up, and was just breathing slowly and deeply and praying… within 30 seconds, I literally FELT the muscle relax and release. I have done this every single time since that night, and it works every time.

    Thank you. I understand very well the Biological concept. My aunt recently told me that I have been running away for a long time. I knew she was speaking the truth, when we were finished talking on the phone I broke down and cry.
    However the part that I don’t accept is my early morning when I’m awake. I am awake certain time of the month and in the year 3am in the morning and this to pray!!! I am not doing this myself therefore I cannot run away from it!
    Overall a good lecture. I am taking better care of myself now because modern medicine has been slowing down my healing.

    This video explains exactly what I suffered for 20 years. Getting up after 2 hours of sleep and not being able to sleep again. I finally figured it was due to artificial foods like additives, preservatives colourings flavourings etc and I had read that it was due to high cortisols. The part I have not figured out is why these artificial foods cause high cortisol levels in my body. The symptoms describe exactly what I experience like bloating and inflammation, dry skin, osteoparnia, brain fog, water retention and depression. Getting lots of sun and exercise really helps and is an antidote. Now i watch my diet, eat only home cooked food and get plenty of sun and physical activity and I can sleep through the night. Would love to understand why the cortisol levels are elevated with certain foods. Thanks!

    Thanks for the presentation and analysis.. For 35 years, I've been a commercial fishing Captain.. mostly Alaskan waters. Total Stress in a very Real way. I've been retired for 2 years.. Luckily I quit all recreational drugs 31 years ago and replaced it with exercise. Your presentation; I gave myself a Pat on the Back. However, I took up kickboxing 2007 and that gets stressful. Only 3.. 3 minutes rounds. Every other day :-)

    That is exactly what happened to me about 20 yrs ago, a stress event to the point where I felt something snap inside of me and I have never been the same since and battling ailments.. My body is in a constant state of being tensed and thyroid nodules had developed.
    I will look for the vitamins you suggested and I hope it can help me, nothing bc else seems to work. Thank you Dr. Berg!❤️

    Stumbled onto this video at the perfect time. I'm having heavy issues lately with stuck stress bc of school and life. Very high cortisol. Urgent care and emergency room visits. Im gonna have to take a break from school to work on calming down. I've been trying cbd, calming teas and digestion teas, eating healthier and more veggies but can't do salads bc they for some reason constipate me and I'm already having digestive issues.
    Thank you for this video Dr Berg!!!
