Top Ten Reasons For Adrenal & Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Major psycho-social activities that obstruct adrenal function and physical regeneration.
Over time, life events whether acute or prolonged can wear on the energy reserves of the human body. The kidneys and adrenals need to recover. Either a person is able to support that process or they become involved in these activities:
- Working too much: Due to insecurity whether it’s boss sponsored or yourself, the end result is you go too hard and long beyond your adrenal’s reserves. Your boss can be asking for too much and you may be a willing participant or not but you still go on. You need to honor your needs. The job or others will not. Its time, to take care of yourself. Now, is an opportunity to learn to recognize when you are approaching your exhaustive boundaries.
- Incongruence: Personal dishonoring. You say no when you mean to say yes and you say yes when you mean no. This can involve work, friends, community and family. This opposing inner dialogue develops into an intra-psychic conflict and persoanl revulsion. You need to slow down until can hear your voice or higher consult clearly. After that, learn to work with your truth rather than move based on other’s expectations.
- Over-indulgence: Excessive occupation with anything such as food, drug, sport, etc. can result in an imbalance where your primary needs are neglected. Sleep can be interrupted if your belly is too full, prevents laying down and raises blood sugar where you remain in a wakeful state. Sports can be practiced or played exceeding body limits where one’s reserve and immunity are broken down. Sports are OK but there needs to be a steady buildup, not an all out blast of epinephrine, to the point of exhaustion. Consider Tai Chi, Qi gong and Yoga which builds energy rather than depletes it.
- Harassment: Whether it’s a personal relationship work relationship or neighbor, this can be very disturbing. When insomnia is the norm then it would be advisable to re-assess the need for the relationship or determine strategies for fixing the relationship. Working with a counselor, psychotherapist or Spiritual Life Coach can be very beneficial in resolving this concern.
- Menopause and Andropause: The liver in the body can become excessively warm due to toxicity. Body heat rises up and body cold lowers down. When liver heat rises, the waves to varying degrees heat up everything up through to the head. At night, the heat causes sweating, keeps us alert, excess thinking, avoidance of deep level (REM) sleep, etc. When you cool the liver with diet and Chinese herbs, this aspect is removed from the equation.

Don’t Miss This! No More Menopause!
Allopathic Medicine May Well Be Mistaken!
The position that the reason for all the menopause symptoms is due to an imbalance of hormones is a superficial perspective and deserves a deeper look. Menopause symptoms may include:
|
|
Are these symptoms tied to deficiency of hormones? Could it be systemic? The whole body is may be suffering from top to bottom.
ANOTHER PROPOSAL - UNDERLYING CAUSE:
Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective: Menopause is considered a deficiency condition of the liver and qi (life force). When the blood and energy quality is depleted and contaminated then all of the organs cannot complete their tasks. This condition causes the liver to overheat which rises through the body, wreaking havoc in its path. The heart, lungs, digestion, glands, throat, mouth & teeth, nose, eyes, ears, brain, skin and hair become heated and dried resulting in the symptoms, listed above. In addition, the liver does not filter the blood where it becomes sluggish and clotted.
Because the body is deficient of essential body energy and quality filtered blood, then the glands do not perform normally. Their emission may be intermittent or non- secreting overall. while the blood is cleansed, usually enriched, then all the body’s organs advance. Progressively, the energy returns and body functionality re-stabilizes. The glandular functions, secrete once again, assisting the body in its healthy function.
The body is not deficient of hormones. The blood is clogged like sludge. Glands are not receiving/transmitting essential messages, timely and/or minimally!
Then why do we add or give more hormones. Doesn’t that risk an overload of hormones? Recall when you were a teenager and your hormones were extremely revved. We don’t want to risk going through that again. We have sufficient hormones. If we nourish our blood, exercise, sleep, manage stress, etc. our hormones come back and supports increased balance.
So if Chinese medicine knows the problem, then what is their answer to this to this deficiency? View underneath.
