360 - Do You Have High Cortisol? 4 Science-Backed Ways to Reset Your Body’s Stress Response


Listen Later

If your body feels like it's stuck in overdrive—wired, tired, inflamed, and just plain off—it might not be just stress. It could be high cortisol.


In this first episode of Alive & Well, we’re pulling back the curtain on your body’s main stress hormone. 


Because if you’ve been walking around feeling anxious, foggy, overstimulated, or exhausted by 2 p.m., there’s a good chance your cortisol levels are out of whack—and your nervous system is sounding the alarm.


In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why common symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and brain fog could all be traced back to high cortisol
  • How chronic stress disrupts your energy, sleep, focus, and mood
  • The science behind your stress response (no jargon—just what you actually need to know)
  • 4 simple, science-backed ways to calm your nervous system and bring your body back into balance


The best part? You don’t need to overhaul your whole life. 


Just a few small shifts to help your body feel safe again.


🎧 Hit play to learn how to work with your body—not against it—and download the free Nervous System Reset Guide (linked in the show notes) for practical tools you can start using today.


You were made to be alive & well—and we’re starting right here.
