Episode #43: 4 Exercises When You're Bed-bound With Adrenal Fatigue
The body needs to move to be healthy, but that’s easier said than done for those who are dealing with fatigue, chronically. Even a 15-20 minute walk can be too much for many people struggling with adrenal fatigue.
Movement is important not only for our physical health; for circulation, digestion, immunity, detoxification, but also for our mental and emotional health. When we exercise we produce the brain's feel-good neurotransmitters, called endorphins. Endorphins help relieve pain and reduce stress and symptoms of anxiety.
Exercise is also a great way to get out of our heads, have a brain break especially great for those prone to overthinking and anxiety. Exercise also helps us move through certain emotions and shake off the tension of the day.
But for many who are in the later stages of adrenal fatigue where cortisol is flat-lined and many key hormones are low, you don’t have the energy to exercise. I want to give you 3 alternative exercises so you can still move your body and start to slowly build up your strength and endurance, that will feed you with energy rather than deplete you and lead to a crash.
Which one are you excited to try? And what exercise would you add to the list?
Lots of love and gratitude to you,
