My Current Daily Routine for Balancing my Hormones

Balancing hormones is an important aspect of overall health and well-being. While I can provide some general suggestions for a hormone-balancing routine, it's important to remember that I am an individual and this is what has helped me, and not a healthcare professional. It's always a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider or a hormone specialist for personalized advice based on your specific needs.

I am not perfect but when I am on it, this would be my IDEAL daily routine when balancing my hormones...

• Wake up, get sunlight exposure. This can help align your internal clock, promoting better hormone balance throughout the day. I like to go for a walk while doing this is to get some steps in as well.

• Eat a balanced breakfast! Cortisol is a hormone that plays a crucial role in the body's stress response. Skipping breakfast or going for an extended period without eating can trigger the release of cortisol, as the body perceives it as a stressful situation. Elevated cortisol levels can disrupt the balance of other hormones in the body, leading to potential imbalances.

• Don't go on my phone right when I wake up. This can help you have a Low Dopamine Morning, allowing you to have lowerr cortisol levels, and keep your body in the “rest and digest” phase allowing you to lower stress and help balance hormones throughout the day.

• Have a midday snack. Keeping my body fueld I find helps me keep my energy levels up and stay more focused.

• Eat Lunch. I'll say it again and again, don't skip ya meals ladies.

• Movement. This is where I will get my workout in, wither with my gym buddy or solo. But it can vary from lifting, HIIT, pilates, or a bit of everything. Regular exercise can help to decrease excess circulating estrogen levels, improving symptoms of PMS and other estrogen-dominant conditions

• Soccer. Find your passions and live by them. For me, futbol has been number one for as long as I can remember. So I try to play at least once a day, but that's not always the case, and thats okay. It's also another great form of movement for my body and social interaction with friends and new faces!

-Dinner. Eating well balanced nourished meals have been GAME changer for me, my gut, my hormones, all of the above. It's about balance so don't be too strict with yourself, you wanna be able to enjoy your food.

-Relax. This can be anything that allows you to de stress, and allow your body and nervous system to get back to that "rest & digest" state. When we have prolonged stress, it can cause excess cortisol, which can contribute to high blood pressure, mood changes, low libido, weight gain, and irregular periods. But a prolonged stress response can also interfere with other hormones, including testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone, further exacerbating these problems and adding others. So allow you body & mind to de stress!
