Send us Fan MailWarning: This is a raw/unedited recording of my discussing the below outline on an IG live due to many many comments on an IG post on my account about high vs low cortisol.

This will depend if high OR low and what you tolerate. I also talk about why people DON'T tolerate things and answer off the cuff questions about headaches, etc, NON-negotiables for lifestyle: Sleep 7-10 hours Limbic system work/neural pathway retrainingGut/mold/etc issues  Eat enough regularly at reg intervals every 4ish hours PFC LIFESTYLE: what is stresing you out? talking fast? appt to appt? Exercise changes Night shift Get on the waitlist to work with me: https://www.christabiegler.com/fss
