Anxiety and panic attacks
Stress is wreaking havoc and ruining lives at an alarming rate. Anxiety and panic attacks are both indicators of a chronic stress pattern that becomes locked in the brain and weakens a person’s adrenals.
During chronic stress, the amygdala, your brain’s sentinel, becomes chronically over-stimulated. When the brain is continually stuck in a hyper alert position, it can cause an over reaction to even the slightest stressor. Simply put, the more the brain is triggered, the easier it is to trigger it. This sets the stage to guarantee that your body is always primed for a full-blown stress response to even the slightest annoyance.
In this chronically over stimulated state, the adrenals also suffer. The body is requiring that they be constantly pumping out adrenaline and cortisol to match your level of stress, and they never get a chance to recover and rebuild. The result is weakened adrenals which cause the exaggerated stress response all day long. It’s a vicious cycle!
Adaptogens are quite miraculous!! Immediately they begin the process of regulating the glands involved in the stress response, the HPA-axis, and reestablishing the feedback loop between the adrenals and pituitary/hypothalamus. By changing the energetics of the brain, the amygdala calms and begins resuming normal function. The adrenals can now recover and rebuild energy.
Adaptogens are the only herbs in the world that nourish and repair both the HPA-axis and adrenals. As these systems regain their balance, you will once again have the upper hand on managing stress.
This is the best natural remedy for anxiety and panic attacks.
