The adrenal gland system is a fantastic survival tool to get you out of danger, defend yourself and stay alive. If you’re getting chased by a tiger, you really want your body to increase speed and strength to escape. This is your adrenal glands function. A great system for immediate danger however after the danger has passed, the body has to recover and repair. What if you kept getting chased by a tiger for months or years? What would happen to your body?
In our modern society it’s rare to have to run from wild animals, but our body responds to stress in the same way. The interesting thing about your hormonal system is it doesn’t know the difference between what’s happening outside your body and what’s happening in your mind. If your mind perceives a danger, you’ll activate the sympathetic nervous system and adrenal glands. So your body will react to financial stress in the same way it reacts to a tiger following you for years. After a while the adrenal system cannot keep up, and a whole range of health problems appear.
