Did you ever feel completely overwhelmed with your life?
I've noticed that many of my patients, in their intake forms, complain of panic attacks and anxiety. Consequently their adrenal glands are either overtaxed or malfunctioning. Excess stress can cause the adrenal glands to change the amount of the hormone cortisol they secrete, often causing weight gain, afternoon fatigue, blood sugar fluctuations, and inflammation, among other things.
Recently, I had a patient whose chief complaint was shortness of breath which comes and goes but is worse in the morning. In addition, she showed all the cardinal signs of adrenal burnout. But when I checked her adrenals, they were fine! Although her cortisol levels were clearly out of balance, the problem wasn't in the adrenal glands. When we did BodyTalk, the only thing that came up as a priority was Switching. I performed the technique, and she called me several hours later to tell me that she felt amazingly better. Her shortness of breath was improved but also, she said that her stress was greatly reduced.
I was amazed. How could this one simple technique have such a great effect on her? Later, I realized that the whole purpose of Switching is to raise the stress threshold of the body. As we cope with stress, we all have a threshold, over which our brain shuts down, and we go into overwhelm. We can't usually change the amount of stress we're under...but we can certainly change our response to that stress. That's what switching does: it raises the bar, so that we can actually have a steady mind in the face of our stress--without it stressing us out--for a longer period of time.
This is the power of the Switching Technique, one of the five techniques taught in the one-day BodyTalk Access course. Access is a great course to learn more about BodyTalk and the power of preventive healthcare. As a complimentary health care modality, BodyTalk is non-invasive, safe, and so beneficial to everyone.
