Myths Of Cortisol - with Psychologist Dr Amber Johnson
Myths of Cortisol!
When we speak about stress what people are usually referring to is Cortisol.
Dr Amber Johnson states that this is a hormone running through us that makes us “get into action” when we are experiencing something potentially stressful.
People sometimes think of negative connotations when it comes to Cortisol. However, it just means energy! We need this energy.
If we dont have Cortisol, we find ourselve in a low place where it is hard to move - using waking up as an example.
The problem is when we have too much of Cortisol - Chronic Cortisol. This can potentially start affecting our Emotional Health and Physical Health.
