- "I'm not going to tell you to relax, because that's not what I want you to do," shares Dr. Sara Gottfried right off the top of her Speakeasy at Wanderlust Colorado. In her talk on managing cortisol (and thereby stress levels), she emphasizes that her version of reducing stress, "is a much more advanced physiological state [than relaxation]. When you entrain your and sympathetic nervous system (the half that deals with "fight or flight") with your parasympathetic nervous system (the half that does "rest and digest") you are better able to manage your stress. It's about perception and being about to rise above the fray and look more objectively at your own stressors and how you dance with them."
If you (like most people in our modern age) have a lot on your plate and know that your health is suffering as a result, this is the one Speakeasy video you simply must tune in to, as Dr. Sara spells out in plain English what might be amiss in your hormonal system and gives you 7 concrete ways to "actively de-stress". She shows us how to identify our cortisol levels, examine our relationship to stress, and describes the differences between men and women's cortisol management.
The Speakeasy at Wanderlust Colorado 2013 is presented with Naropa University, a Buddhist-inspired, student-centered liberal arts university in Boulder, Colorado. A recognized leader in contemplative education, Naropa's undergraduate and graduate programs emphasize professional and personal growth, intellectual development, and contemplative practice.

Where’s the comment with all the answers that saves you the time of watching the entire video? 😂
AgentRedWolf I was searching for it too! 😂😭
While the need to get the gist in 2 minutes seems proper due to time crunch one way to curb anxiety is listen intently to the stories of others . Story telling and listening are powerful relaxants by themselves .
Watching up until 31:50 had me super stressed. Ofcoirse you're going ro feel better afterwards, the stress was created in the first 30 minutes.

"GPS for the soul" app? Sa sad couldt not find it!
Fave
awesome info
I hop on my exercise bike to de-stress. And I pray. I also eat super healthy, and I intermittent fast. Due to an injury, it's difficult to get back to yoga. I have it in mind to get back to massage th therapy and using a sauna. Things that bring on stress for me: ruminating on huge past hurts, and toxic people disrupting my peace. I sometimes feel stress from how much I've had to isolate myself from toxic people. I don't drink alcohol at all. I think my stress levels have come down some, but I feel like I have a long way to go.
Hi Lucy, my condolences to you for your past hurts. There is hope! (Trauma is the primary disrupter to hormones.) First, in your prayers specially ask Almighty God to Supernaturally align & balance cortisol levels, adrenaline levels, serotonin levels, dopamine levels, testosterone levels, estrogen levels, and restore excellence to vagus nerve system; restore all to His Excellence that He Created (repeat as need). Second, forgiveness. And continue seeking healthy dopamine sources (e.g. yoga, exercise, massage, bubble baths, etc.) God bless.
Great seminar.
I like that she mentioned chocolate.
Only thing missing here is circadian rhythm balance through sunlight and meal schedule.
The cortisol problem is not much about it being high but more about being high all the time or high and low at the wrong times.
Modern society teaches us to be more active at night. We study at night (active better brainwaves), watch entraining shows and night, go to club and exercise at night (and evening).
I think that’s the major problem.
Back then, you wouldn’t be able to do all these things at night as there would be no light to let you.
Night shift worker is NEVER addressed. AND "find a day job" is not an option.

How to fix it
Can someone help me?
My cortisol blood is 194 nmol/L ...what's the units she speaking of ?
What to do for low morning cortisol?????
thanks for this, we have cushion disease in our family and cortisol over production is making alot of senses to my life. I created a meditation to cleanse in nature, which really helps me. aligning mind, body and soul and loving yourself to become love and peace using nature..
Brilliant!
How do test those serotonin genes. ?
How can I be helped? I have severe ptsd. And it's lead to so many other problems.
Alternate Nostril Breathing ✨🙂
Waiting for my 24hr pee test result from my doctor mine was a 29.5 when I did a blood test in the morning . Might need some medicine.
Ah Ganesha ,,,love the nostril breathe...xoxo
The supplements might help. I thought I ordered them. After 2 weeks I guess I didn't. Time to order them for that "cocktail."

This woman is beautiful... oh and thanks for the knowledge by the way. What was the name of the writing course you said in the beginning of this video, Jack Who?
Kerouac
@@overcomer4226 Thank you
Very likeable lady. I wonder - is there *gps-for-the-soul* for Android [since I can't afford one of these magnificent iPhones]
Whats the name of cortisol test
Dutch
What's the name of her book she talks about. Disappointed that there is no link to it.
The Hormone Cure
Alternate nostril breathing, phosphatydil serine, holy basil (tulsi), omega 3s,
What about adding a Pound of fruits to a pound of vegetables per day. Ten servings or about a Kilo (2 lb) is the desirable amount for men. Women can get away with may be 8 servings. Fruit juices dont count but vegetable juice cup accounts for one serving of produce. 2 pounds of produce daily works i 2 weeks via modifying the gut biome

Indian ancient science like Vedas, puranas ,mantras, yoga, it all came from cosmic energy resources unknown. Unfortunately, when various religious and political invaders entered India centuries ago ,few of this scriptures are destroyed or stolen, but today the same old science is evaluating again to help humans.
I get the shits from Stevia...
+shitmandood Thanks for the LOL today.
10:28, my experience is not that wonen are good at blaming themselves. At least where my spouse is concerned..
Hug 8 Times a day? How? With whom? I'm going out 3 to 4 times a week to meet people, aproach a bunchload of women and maybe once a week I hook up, but it's such a chore, it's so exhausting... I mean, how you people find your 8 hugs a day? Just how? I can't go around just hugging people. wtf?
Sorry, I was mistaken, my bad: You actually can hug whoever you want: v=8XW0esVy1tY
There are other ways to increase oxitocin. If you can at least get some kind of positive social interaction, that will help (even over the social media). Or maybe getting a massage. But be aware that too much oxiticin can make us overly sensitive towards other people - and thus anxious...
get a dog :)
I was thinking the same thing. or cat..any being that loves hugging.
macheifach rofl!
Does it really have to be in bed by ten?
do not change what tangible mean and start misusing it.
If you took a shot every time she asked people to raise their hand if... you'd be shitfaced.
All remedies from basic Indian culture, and tradition , from yoga to herbal remedies.
At the beginning, I thought she was asking who had sex every day.... "Actively destressing."
I wish people who have told 'their story' a million times on stage didn't do the weepy thing. Yeah I know I'm cynical but come on, it actually makes you question the sincerity of all that follows.
It sells product. Especially to women.
Probably a lot don't even have big stress in their lives. If they don't have to work, that's a big thing. If they have a lot of money, that's another. They should try working 50-60 hard hours a week and see how that feels.
I have three great stressors in my life and my health is going to hell in a hand basket. I am 68
ANNA LUCAS 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Playboy bunny pillows? Lol
"Rock Cortisol"? What do you do, smoke it?
wait wait wait, you are / were a MD doctor & you had to go to another MD to get health advise, woehahahaha, so funny
jim dee What’s funny about that? My doctor has a doctor....
@@gutchiespencer2714 If she were ever to have any complaints I file a complaint O need disability need say she worked for an ATM O and she needed workman's comp she must have that documented and she can't documented herself she must go to an independent practitioner and have that looked at. Any issues or problems that you have maybe it was related to health insurance or life insurance that has to be documented by an independent governing body like an independent medical practitioner. Also you cannot write prescriptions for yourself. That is the for one of the fastest ways to get your license yanked from you. You must if you are put on medication again that must come from an independent medical practitioner preferably one that does not work in your office or your practiss. I hope this answered your question
What’re the 7 things? Anyone? Lol
Seriously has EVERYONE heard of pranayam? NEVER heard of it.
She is extremely informative
+Madmarsha It is yogic beathing
Madmarsha yes I have. It means breath work. It’s from yoga. I read about it in the heart of yoga by desikachar
Wonder how much of the gender-based response to stress is based on what the social norms tell us to do.
I think this woman herself cannot help herself, how she can help others? The high perceived stress which manifests as high cortisol is a reaction of the body because the mind lives in the fears that has created. The only way to heal is to see your own fears and face them with honesty to yourself. Do not hide them under the carpet in the light that a "yoga" will help. Your fears will be there for you waiting in the corner....Good luck with being honest with yourself.
Your comment is very interesting. Can you please tell us more about how to deal with the fears when facing them, and how that will help lower the cortisol levels ? Thanx in advance.
Dear K what you are speaking of is only mental what Dr. Sara is speaking of is physical and thus we need to use herbal cures and yoga for us to heal..you although are a man so what your talking about is altogether different,,xoxo
Sara says caffeine is bad for us, although she says dark chocolate is gr8 for us?? dark chocolate is loaded with caffeine...? Xoxo
Not so, dark chocolate contains xanthines which are close but not the same as caffeine. It is a very potent anti-oxidant and does not have the same effect as caffeine on raising cortisol. 7 grams per day is sufficient to make a significant impact on lowering risk of heart attack and stroke.
Renee Woods Harrison y
Just BUY what she sells and she will be happy. OMG people are really dumb.
Could you elaborate ?
She wants your money she sells stuff!
VERCSA VEERER I get that, but don't you think she's right when it comes to cortisol?
I find this video very informative and nicely done, and have barely heard her promote any of her stuff!
People are not dumb, your comment and attitude is just very rude!
Hi, İt was very interesting but I want to say is that your breathing pattern during the presentation really stressed me out. I feel tansion
Sara, interesting talk. All you say is pretty cool, but you have a stressful vibe. Hope you can fix that.
Pia Nyström I saw the same thing!! She was anything but mellow.
23:37 _"...because I'm a feminist..."_
===> that's it. I'm out. _(just refuse to give ideologues any of your time. simplest stress management ever...)_
Perhaps you're projecting, friend. She mentions clear differences between male and female biology. This is not consistent with most Feminists who are social constructionists. So at the very least, she isn't ideological.
This woman is correct. Cortisol regulation will help get your life under control. And I say this as a 31 year old male centrist.
whats wrong with a desire for equality?
we women a better suited for more female life...dont need that stress
30:55sec #1 "Pranayam"( alternate nostril breathing). I couldn't listen to her BS anymore beyond that. Good luck.
It actually works
so this is only meant for women? Next time write it in the title, thanks.
Bad cameraman/woman
7 ways "to Rock" cortisol, "to Rock"? "Rock"? what does that mean? annoying expression, I'm outta here it makes my cortisol go up.
Harry O Relax! It’s a black thing and that’s why you’re frazzled...😜
Annoying, yes.
a bit old info ... increase your pleasure... by organs, or buying useless crap of drinks or iphone or phone or drugs... it does not raise your happiness..... NEVER
"super happy to be here. gonna start with an invocation..."
people like this got trump elected.
low information morons bought into trump's b.s.
Man purses? Bye...
It pains you that men have a better stress response? Why? I thought feminists weren’t man haters
They probably are.
such a bad bad bad sales pitch
