As you age, your body changes and so is the brain. There are certain things which will help you to improve your brain health and slow the memory decline, lowering the risk of brain diseases like Alzheimer’s and dementia. Maintaining good health of the brain is crucial for the overall well-being, to prevent mental illness, endocrine disorders and other medical conditions.

1. Stay well hydrated and breathe

In order to support your brain, you need to stay well hydrated. If you experience headaches, brain fog or dizziness in the afternoon, it could be a sign that you didn’t get enough water during the day. You need even more water if you work on a computer and sit all day in an office. Breathing is also important as if your breathing is too shallow, the oxygen reaching the brain might not be enough, try to breathe in a calm manner or do some breathing exercises for several minutes daily. 

2. Get enough sleep 

The body is recovering when you sleep and that applies for the brain even more. This is the only time when the brain should have some rest from processing all this information coming from the outside world. Also all the toxins and cellular metabolic waste is taken out of the brain and into the bloodstream to get rid off later on. In order to feel energized and motivated in the morning, you need to have enough and quality sleep during the night. There are ways to set a sleeping routine and improve the quality of your sleep. Seven to eight hours of consecutive sleep will give your brain the time to recover and to store your memories properly. 

3.Exercise regularly 

Staying active and exercising regularly is very beneficial for the brain. The moderate movements like low intensity exercises, walking, swimming etc., will improve the blood flow to the brain, will tone all the muscles in the body and will support cardiovascular health. Research shows that regular exercising keeps good coordination and improves cognitive health in patients, lowering the risks of mental and brain diseases. It will boost your mood and induce the production of some hormones which will prevent depression and anxiety. 

4. Learn new things - stay mentally active

Never stop learning new things if you want your brain to be healthy and young. In most cases, the mentally active people are protected from dementia as the brain is engaged in learning new skills and creating new neural pathways. Even reading books is a hobby that will keep your brain engaged and will improve your brain health. It is not necessary to go to school or university in order to learn and study, you can always find a way to read and practice new things and skills. Dancing, cooking, drawing and playing a musical instrument are activities which engage many parts of your brain, practicing them will literally tone your brain and they are fun too.

5. Stronger blood vessels and balanced hormones - cold laser therapy

Applying them 3 times per week as a prevention or daily if you experience a medical condition, will induce the healing processes in your brain. 

6. A balanced diet 

Of course, in order to be healthy, you will need a balanced and nutritious diet. All the processed foods, sweets, deep fried foods and trans fats are not good for your brain. The more additives and preservatives your food has, the more your brain will be affected by all these various chemicals coming from outside. Your brain needs good fats, enough proteins, lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, lots of water and fresh air. 

7. Stay connected to friends and social support groups

In order to be healthy, you need a strong immune system because each disease or condition can be tracked down to immunodeficiency or weak immunity. There are many factors like stress, hormonal imbalance, viral infections, toxins exposure, etc. which affect the immune system negatively. However, there is one more factor which is often overlooked and that is the consumption of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). You can even come across articles saying the opposite - that these fatty acids are good for your health but let us see why that is not correct. Which foods contain polyunsaturated fats and why do you need to avoid them or limit their consumption?

What are the PUFAs?

These polyunsaturated fatty acids are specific lipids which do not contain a hydrogen atom at the end of their molecular structure. For example, the saturated fatty acids molecules have all their hydrogen atoms in place. The absence of a hydrogen atom makes the molecule prone to free radicals, that is why these fats are easily oxidized by air and temperature. They are very unstable and the temperature at which they oxidize is really low. When these unsaturated lipids are in the cells, they increase the oxidative stress contributing to the damage and aging of the cell. 

Why Should You Avoid them?

Although there is a big controversy around polyunsaturated fats as some experts advise people to increase their consumption for better health, they actually have inflammatory properties due to their highly reactive nature. While they suppress the thyroid function, their consumption will lead not only to slow metabolism but also to weight gain and hormonal imbalances. They also put a great deal of load on the liver which is the main eliminating organ in the body. Following a PUFAs-free diet will have many benefits for your health such as stable blood sugar levels, improved metabolism, better skin, improved digestion and easier detoxification. 

A List of the Foods Which Contain PUFAs

Although there are traces of PUFAs in most of the vegetables and oils, a small amount of them is very unlikely to cause any trouble. However, most of the liquid cooking oils extracted from nuts and seeds contain mostly polyunsaturated fats. Also, all of the commercially grown animal products like beef, poultry and eggs contain them as the animals have been fed with corn and soy. Here is the list of the oils and foods that you need to avoid:

How to Avoid PUFAs and What to Use Instead? 

First of all, try to use mostly saturated fats for cooking like coconut oil, butter, tallow, ghee and olive oil. Limit the times when you eat out and consume nuts and seeds very moderately. If there are days when you have eaten a lot of PUFAs, try to balance this with the consumption of more saturated fats as it is known that saturated fats diminish the negative effects from the polyunsaturated fats. If you consume animal products, choose grass-fed and organic whenever that is possible. If you are vegan or vegetarian, try to eat more coconut oil, avocados and olive as your main source of fat. Taking a supplement of vitamin E is beneficial when dealing with the effects of PUFAs and it is a powerful antioxidant. 

Support Your Liver

Including antioxidants in your diet like fresh berries and fruits, ashwagandha, rhodiola, etc. will support the function of the liver in eliminating all the toxins from the free radicals. Such herbs and supplements are protecting the cells from the oxidative stress caused by the polyunsaturated fats. Starting your day with lemon water is a small step but it can change the metabolism of fats in your body and will also support your liver. 

Use a cold laser daily for at least two weeks. Cold laser therapy is known to have many benefits and it is highly effective when dealing with various conditions. While it is non-invasive, it is a great alternative to medications and is a huge support to every detoxification. You can apply coMra on your liver to support its function every evening on 5Hz for two week for ten to twenty minutes. This can be combined with other treatment protocols. Cold laser therapy is providing additional energy on a cellular level, inducing the inherent healing abilities of the body and assisting it in the elimination of the free radicals which cause aging, diseases and cell damage.

To start using coMra, first search your health issue in the coMra User Guide ( you can use the Web app, download the mobile version or as a pdf file). If you can find it, start applying the relevant to it treatment protocol. If you do not find it, start with coMra Universal 3 and coMra Universal 5 protocols.

These days, when refined sugar is in almost every packaged food on the market, more and more people become sugar sensitive, or in other words they develop insulin resistance. Insulin is the hormone produced by the pancreas in order to regulate the blood sugar levels and to make the cells use the glucose as fuel. However, due to some factors, the cells would not respond to the insulin and they “refuse” to use the glucose coming to them. This blood sugar then will keep circulating in the body, so the levels will stay high causing symptoms like headaches, increased heart beat and could have serious long term effects on the overall health.

What is the obvious cause of insulin resistance?

A diet with too many calories in each meal, with lots of sweets and carbohydrates would cause insulin spikes throughout the day. The obvious cause for insulin resistance is obesity, inactive lifestyle, too much processed and junk food, soft drinks with too much sugar and eating a lot of sugar in any form, even not the obvious one like pasta, white rice, potatoes, etc. Each meal will cause insulin to rise in order for all these calories to be used by the cells. However, some foods will cause insulin spikes and some will cause a continuous insulin rise keeping it in moderate range. Above all, do not to forget that your brain and your liver need carbs in order to function, the consumption of carbohydrates is not the real cause of insulin resistance.

What is the main cause of insulin resistance though?

If we look under the face value though, the main cause is now proved to be stress. High levels of stress will disrupt the hormonal balance in the body and can lead to insulin resistance. There is a connection between stress and the “refusal” of the cells to use all that glucose. The “fast” calories coming from a candy, for example, have to be used very quickly by the cells and if we are not exercising in order to burn these calories, they in fact will “burn” the cell itself, causing oxidative stress, cell death and lots of free radicals. At one point, the cell will refuse to use this excess fuel anymore in order to preserve its own health. 

This whole process has to be taken in awareness, especially if you are an emotional eater. A lot of people like to relax themselves by eating food, and it is not a surprise that they usually choose sweets. So we have stress, emotional imbalance and the habit of eating a lot of sweets like cakes, chocolates, soft drinks, candies and so on. And there is more, the word “resistance” is the key. When you resist something in your life, this causes high levels of stress. The constant inner conflict, resistance to the process of life and negative thinking will at one point affect your physical health. This all looks like a vicious circle and it has to be broken, otherwise insulin resistance can become diabetes when the pancreas cannot keep up and stops the insulin production.

A holistic way how to deal with insulin resistance

First of all, if you suffer from this condition and you are aware that your body is sending you a message that you need to change something, then it is time to take the responsibility for your own health. Change your diet, include exercising and activities, work on your inner response to life and stressful situations. Related to the physical body - your liver, pancreas and other organs you will need to turn towards non-invasive therapies without aggressive medications, you do not want to get addicted to medications which make you feel good but destroy your liver or kidneys. Cold laser therapy is very effective when treating the liver, the pancreas and endocrine disorders. The coMra cold laser devices are even more powerful but still gentle to your cells, as they use not only an infrared laser but also magnets and light diodes. 

Hundreds of case studies have proved great results on conditions like insulin resistance and diabetes. However, the earlier you address the cause, the better. Good news is that you can apply it on your own at home, without going to a medical center and you can combine cold laser therapy with yoga, walks in nature, massage therapy, art classes or anything that makes you feel good. When you take the responsibility for your health back in your hands and have your own strategy on how to enjoy life more rather than resisting it, then it will all come to its place.

If you can find it, start applying the relevant to it treatment protocol. If you do not find it, start with coMra Universal 3 and coMra Universal 5 protocols.

Everyone wants to have strong and healthy hair but there is more to it. The health of your hair is  showing if there is an issue in your body as it reacts to every change of the inner balance. Hormonal problems, digestive issues, stress and emotional imbalances will affect your hair and will change the appearance, the thickness and the scalp of the head. That is why it is very important to observe the condition of the hair and to know how to support its health from the inside out, not relying so much on hair products for external use.

Why are we losing hair?

The main thing about hair is that it is not crucial for the survival of the body, so there would be no priority to it if the major organs like the heart or the lungs need support or healing. There is a limited energy in the body and it has to be organized in such a way that it covers all its needs to maintain life. When there is constant stress or a chronic disease, for example, most of the energy resources of the body are spent on dealing with the consequences of the health condition. 

Which means that if you are experiencing stress, your body will have to give priority to some functions and put others on hold. Hair growth is one of the things that is affected by stress shortly after the situation itself as all the energy is redirected to the more important organs and systems. If you experience a long term stress, then the reproductive hormones would be affected too as in times of stress and malnutrition, the reproduction is put on hold. 

There are certain hormones which are linked to the health of the hair. High levels of prolactin will induce hair loss, and high levels of estrogen will cause the prolactin to increase. Low thyroid function can also result in hair loss and bad hair health like dryness and breakage. And the low thyroid hormone production is usually going together with high estrogen. 

How to Improve Your Hair Health and to Avoid Hair Loss?

You will need to restore the hormonal balance in your body, change your diet, maybe even take some supplements like zinc and vitamins B. It is highly recommended to include cold laser therapy as a complementary treatment or to use it as a main healing strategy. The laser will provide an additional energy source to your body which can be used for healing and regeneration. Here are some of the things which you can do in order to support your hair from the inside out.

1.Manage your stress

The stress hormones like cortisol, adrenaline, etc., are a priority for your body as they are produced to help you get out of the stressful situation. Or that is how it used to be. Nowadays, research shows that an average woman experiences 50 to 100 stress reactions in a single day and that is affecting her hormonal balance. It is well known that hair reacts very quickly to excessive stress and the next morning you wake up with dry, breaking and falling hair, or you find new white hairs. Stress is affecting the blood vessels of the scalp and they literally shrink which causes falling hair and dryness. How to manage your stress? First of all, work on your perception and observe your reaction to the stressful situation. Then you will need to cut off stimulants like caffeine and calm down your nervous system. Cold lasers are a great non-invasive option to medications and can be used to support both your nervous system and the major organs in your body. 

2.Support your reproductive and thyroid hormones production

Falling hair is linked to low thyroid hormones, high prolactin and estrogen, low progesterone and high levels of cortisol. So, it is very often a sign for a hormonal imbalance that is unaddressed. Restoring the hormonal balance will take time as it is a very complicated inner system of chemicals and connections. If you feel that your body has its own intelligence and that it knows how to stay healthy, the best way is to support its own healing. That is why you need to be very careful with hormone replacement therapies of any kind as you can hardly manage all these processes. That is why cold laser therapies like coMra are more and more recommended, they provide the missing energy for the body to heal itself. You can start with Universal treatment protocol 5 which is good for the nervous system too, then apply the Hypothyroidism treatment protocol if needed. 

3.Maintain healthy blood sugar levels

Whenever you eat something, your blood sugar levels will rise but if you eat a great amount of sugar all at once, your blood sugar will rise so quickly that it will need an insulin spike too in order to fix it. These insulin spikes are very dangerous, especially if you suffer from hypoglycemia, insulin resistance, etc. The glucose levels in your blood are connected to the stress hormones, the health of the liver and the pancreas, your blood pressure ...you name it - they affect the whole body as glucose is the fuel for the cell and its metabolism is crucial. Including more fruits in your diet will help you minimize the quantity of refined sugar. 

4.Support your liver 

An organ responsible for so many things in your body, your liver deserves special attention. The health of your hair also depends on its work as if all these toxins remain unprocessed, it will show. How to support your liver? Eat enough quality protein as that will help the elimination of the excessive estrogen from the body, consume alcohol moderately or avoid it, limit the amount of refined sugar in your diet, work with your emotions. Yes, the liver is affected by emotions like fear and anger, so containing your emotions will support its function as good as cutting off all the processed foods. Use coMra cold lasers directly on the liver on 5Hz for ten to twenty minutes every evening, before going to bed, for two weeks. This will improve your metabolism and can help with weight loss if the glucose is not stored in the body in the form of fat cells. Add more vitamins B to your diet or take them as supplements and eat raw carrots daily to support estrogen elimination.

5.Improve your gut health

A major part of digestion is happening in the gut and if there is a problem it will affect the whole body. If you experience gut problems for some time, your hair will be dry, dull and thinning.  Have you heard of the gut brain? Yes, there are nerve cells in your gut and any issue there will show in your emotions and energy levels. This is the link to the stress reactions, poor gut health might even cause anxiety or depression. Depending on your condition, check the available treatment protocols in the coMra User Guide as cold laser therapy is highly effective when treating digestive issues. Combine the treatments with a change in your diet according to your personal food intolerances. Some people feel better when they limit the consumption of gluten, others have to stay away from all the dairy products.

To start using coMra, first search your health issue in the coMra User Guide ( you can use the Web app, download the mobile version or as a pdf file). If you can find it, start applying the relevant to it treatment protocol. If you do not find it, start with coMra Universal 3 and coMra Universal 5 protocols.

The quality of our sleep is so important for the overall health, the hormonal balance, the health of the brain, of the heart and more. You know how you feel when you can't sleep well, how your productivity and mood during the day is affected. But that is just the tip of the iceberg - with time poor sleep can lead to anxiety, weight gain, chronic fatigue, thyroid issues, depression and even a burn out. That is why it is good to have a sleeping routine which will support the quality of your sleep at night and here are some tips on how to create one that will work for you.

Having a light meal at least 2 hours before going to bed

Your body needs to rest during the night and also most of the negative and healing processes are happening while you are sleeping. So, you definitely do not want to load your body with heavy meals right before going to bed. Instead of resting and cleansing the tissues, it will be busy with digestion and the horizontal position is not supporting the digestive system at all. If you eat heavy in the evening and then there is not enough time for the food to be digested, it will affect the quality of your sleep, not allowing you to reach the deep sleep phase, can cause bloating, gas and abdominal pain, it can even cause bad dreams and nightmares. So, try to have a light meal at least 2-3 hours before going to bed and if you like to snack late in the evening, have a fresh vegetable or fruit instead of chocolate or sweets. 

Going to bed at the same time each night

Although it could be hard to do this every single night, it is very beneficial if you could set a time to go to bed each evening and stay with it. If you go to bed and wake up at a particular time, your body will adjust and will start producing the hormones regulating your energy expenditure on a regular basis. In the evening, it will decrease the levels of cortisol and will produce melatonin which will make you fall asleep faster. In the morning, the levels of cortisol will rise up at the same time each day, waking you up. If you travel and experience jet lag, try to get back to your normal sleeping hours as soon as possible. Sleeping during the dark hours is highly beneficial for your health, so try not to stay too late and then wake up before 9 am in the morning for an optimal health condition. 

Reducing screen time in the evening

In order for your body to start the melatonin production, which will help you fall asleep, it is better to avoid looking at screens at least 2 hours before going to bed. Screens are known to emit blue light which is waking up the brain and causing troubles sleeping. Also when you are checking your social media in the evening, it actually clutters your mind with too much information which has to be processed and will keep you wide awake. Diminishing the light in the room where you stay in the evening reading a book or listening to calm music will help your body to prepare for a good rest. 

Calming down your nervous system

As mentioned you can listen to calm music or read a book in the evening. In order to calm the nervous system down, you can also take a shower, do some slow stretching, drink a calming cup of herbal tea or make a cold laser treatment. Universal treatment protocol 5 from coMra user guide, for example, is supporting your nervous system and will help you calm down. It can be applied to balance your hormones and to support neuropathic healing too. As a non-invasive procedure, coMra is very beneficial for a wide range of conditions but can also be used as a way to fall asleep faster and to support your immune system. Combining it with a cup of warm milk with cardamom and nutmeg will help you fall asleep even faster. 

Breathwork and essential oils

Imagine having your diffuser with the favourite aromas of lavender or sandalwood essential oils on, you are sitting or lying down still, diving deep in your calm and ever existing presence. Setting up a meditation or breathing practice each evening is proven to help with falling asleep and having a good night sleep. If you are new to meditation, you can listen to a recorded meditation or just focus on your breath for several minutes, trying not to think about anything else. When you are observing your breath, it helps you stay in the moment and all the distracting thoughts will slowly disappear, leaving in the tranquility of your own presence. 

Oil massage

There is an ancient ayurvedic practice to do a self-massage in the evening with warm sesame oil in order to promote better health and sleep. You can slowly spread the oil on your body being mindful and full presented, giving your cells some extra love. If you are in a hurry, you can massage only the feet and your scalp as there are thousands of nerve endings there connected to each organ in your body. This procedure is like a ritual for a better sleep as it will help your tissue regeneration and will calm down your nervous system even more. 

Letting it all go 

The day is over and you need to leave all the worries of the day behind in order to fall asleep. Avoid thinking about the next day tasks or the problems that you have at the moment. Whatever is there to be done, you can do it tomorrow. If you are overthinking all the things that trouble you, you will end up spending the night worrying instead of sleeping and the next day, you will have zero energy to actually deal with what is urgent. The art of letting go in something that we all practice each evening when we are already in bed. Breathe out all your worries and troubles, preparing yourself to have a good and relaxing sleep. This will give you the energy and maybe even new ideas on how to tackle your challenges in the morning. Practicing gratitude for all the great things in your life is an inspiring way to end your day on a good note.

Avoiding stimulating activities 

Having a dynamic work out just before going to bed or watching a movie with some disturbing images, will not help with your sleep. If the levels of adrenaline rise, it will take some time to calm down again. All the really stimulating activities should be left for the day time and in the evening you can concentrate on very slow and soothing practices like Yin yoga, slow stretching, drawing or your favourite quiet hobby. The less is there for your mind to process, the better your sleep will be. That is why you need to be very mindful of what type of content you are watching or listening to before going to bed. Disturbing images and sounds will affect your sleep and might even cause nightmares. 

Sleep is the time of the day when we regain our energy and rest. On the physical level, the body is recovering, healing, cleansing and regenerating. On the emotional level, we get some peace and quiet away from the madness of the world outside. That is why, we need to be mindful about these moments just before going to bed and be aware of what thoughts occupy the mind. These are the moments when we can really observe deep inside and embrace the depth of our own being, when we can cherish the true nature of life, when we can experience deep and soothing inner peace.

If you do not find it, start with coMra Universal 3 and coMra Universal 5 protocols. If you have questions and need support by an expert, please contact us.

Thousands of people these days are asking this question as thyroid malfunction is like an epidemic, mainly amongst women. The thyroid gland has a very important role in the body while it regulates metabolism and how the body will spend its energy resource. The conventional medical approach is to commit to hormone replacement therapy and to take thyroid hormones (usually synthetic) for the rest of your life but is there another way to naturally reset your thyroid?

Does Your Thyroid Function Properly? 

There are some symptoms and body signs which can help you notice that your thyroid might not be working properly. If your thyroid is not active enough, it is called hypothyroidism and if it is too active, then it is hyperthyroidism. Although these conditions are very common these days, especially amongst women, they often are not diagnosed for years. A lot of women are going from a doctor to a doctor without receiving the clarity on what is wrong with their health. Similar is the situation with B12 deficiency for example. Simple blood test of the thyroid hormone levels - TSH, fT3 and fT4, will immediately give you the answers and you will know if it is the thyroid and to search somewhere else. 

Which Are the Symptoms of Hypothyroidism and Hyperthyroidism? 

Although these two conditions seem like the opposite of each other, they are often connected and you can go from one to another in a matter of days or even hours. This happens when Hashimoto’s is experienced which is an autoimmune disease of the thyroid gland.

The hypo function of the thyroid is linked to:

The hyperfunction is linked to:

Every change in your metabolism and how you feel on the energetic level might be a sign that your thyroid is struggling. 

How to Naturally Reset Your Thyroid? 

There are several points in your strategy to support the thyroid function naturally - food, activity, emotions and energy. If you know what is the trigger for the condition, you can observe yourself and work with the cause of the problem, not only the consequences. When speaking about the thyroid there are triggers everywhere but stress is the main one. Yes, stress again. Stress-linked diseases are everywhere because when you are stressed the whole hormonal balance in your body is disturbed and the endocrine system is affected immediately. Imagine what is happening when you are stressed every day, many times per day ...constantly. Then is the energy - when your body does not have enough energy, it starts “cutting off” some functions, processes in order to save some. This is when the cold laser therapy comes to help as the infrared laser provides additional energy to your cells. 

Why are Cold Lasers so Effective for Thyroid Conditions?

Every process in your body needs energy and the energy resources are not infinite. If you suffer from a disease, for example, more than half of your vital energy is spent on dealing and healing of the condition. The daily activities like breathing, heartbeat and so on, will spend a forth of the energy resource too. Healing, recovery and regeneration are spending a lot of energy and if there is nor enough to cover the vital functions of the organism, these are put “on hold”. The cold lasers are near infrared lasers which will provide additional energy to your cells in the form of light. This type of light that they can use immediately for their needs. These cold lasers or low level lasers do not cause any heat or warmth sensation on your skin and are completely safe to be used at home, on your own. In the coMra Use Guide you will find a complete thyroid treatment protocol which has shown great results and is really effective when you want to support your thyroid. 

Food Diet and Lifestyle Changes

As a complementary treatment program to your coMra protocols, you can try to change your diet and eat more fruits, vegetables and proteins. Avoid too much sugar, alcohol and caffeine in order to support your thyroid and adrenal glands. A moderate activity on a regular basis is very much recommended too as you need to give a hand to your metabolism and your cardiovascular system. And then - the stress, we start with it and we finish with it, you have to find a way to manage your stress by embracing healthy habits like sleeping enough, enjoying your daily routine, more time in nature, sports, hobbies, etc. You can also support your nervous system with coMra, herbs, vitamins and supplements.

Lymph is a liquid which circulates between the cells in your body, it enters the cell and then leaves, taking out toxins and waste material. The main function of the lymph is to “catch” bacteria, viruses, metabolic waste and toxins, sending them to the lymph nodes in order to neutralize their negative effects. There are more than 600 lymph nodes in the body located in different parts protecting the body from inflammation and illness. When the lymph nodes are enlarged and swollen, it is a sign that the immune system is fighting an infection or a disease.

The health of the nervous system is crucial for your well-being and the quality of your life. The overactive nervous system is more susceptible to stress, irritability, hormonal imbalance and more. We all live at a very high speed and the nervous system together with the adrenal glands are very often overwhelmed resulting in anxiety, stress, depression and chronic fatigue. All the information and communication with the world around you is going through your mind, emotions and the nervous system, everything is interconnected. When there is an imbalance in your emotions, for example, it will start a chain-reaction in your whole body with all its systems and functions. How to calm down an overactive nervous system and to improve the healthy response to life and all the challenges that come our way?

The art of slowing down

First of all, you need to slow down and breathe. If you are living at a very high speed, having difficulties catching your breath and finding five minutes for yourself, you need to slow down and create that time and space. You have to pay more attention to your feelings and to find your own pace in order to be able to heal. Learn to say “no” if needed, take care of your own well-being, do less and choose your priorities. The only way to avoid burnout and the negative effects of the overactive nervous system is to slow down, find your rhythm and move accordingly. When it is about your health, no task is nor urgent as at one point your body will force you to slow down by an illness or a condition, you need to avoid that and do something in advance.

Have a good rest and some sleep

It is part of slowing down - to feel when you really need to rest, to take a nap or to sleep more. It is essential to balance your active hours with a good rest. Having a massage, a bath, a long shower, a deep relaxation session or a nap could be crucial for your well-being at one point. Instead of forcing yourself into going and going, doing more and more, find the space to just calm down and rest, set your priorities and be gentle to yourself. Rest and digest is the healthy alternative to the “fight, flight or freeze” reaction to life challenges. Have a good rest and go over your strategy on how to tackle your challenge instead of rushing yourself into it, taking hectic actions and ending up exhausted and depleted. 

Work on your thoughts and emotions

Yes, your thinking patterns are these monsters in your head which are making your life miserable on a daily basis. If you want to calm down your overactive nervous system, you need to stop overthinking, limit the negative beliefs that you have, stop the negative internal dialogue which is full of all these undermining programs set there a long time ago. What you think will affect your emotions, and your emotions will affect the hormonal balance and your overall health. Each illness and disease starts in the mind first, then it manifests on the physical level. 

Tap into joy

Having fun and enjoying your time could have a deep healing effect on your nervous system. Develop self-love and acceptance, embrace yourself and find your inner peace if you want to really calm down and enjoy life. Laughter is a very good exercise as it boosts your mood, increases your blood circulation and activates many muscles, it will improve your digestion and will help you change the focus on how you perceive life. Having fun is healing you on so many levels, make it a priority. Going outside for a walk and to observe the beauty of nature around you will also help to tap into joy and beauty.

We live in a world where chemicals are everywhere - in the water, the air and the food we eat, also in the products that we use on a daily basis like cosmetics, food containers and other plastics, household cleaning products, etc. But how all these substances which are unknown to the body actually affect its own fine balance, and especially the hormonal balance while the hormones are also types of chemicals produced by the endocrine system in order to regulate different processes in the body. Even extremely small amounts of a certain chemical can affect the endocrine system in a negative way, compromising the overall health. 

Which are the most common endocrine disruptors?

The plastic containers and bottles are made of a different material, so some of these might contain phthalates, BPA and other chemicals which act as xenoestrogens and toxins when reaching your cells. You are exposed to them if you use a lot of plastic containers and a plastic wrap for your food, if you heat your food in such containers it can make things even worse, if you eat a lot of canned food, etc. The surprising thing is that the receipts from the supermarket or the bank terminals contain these, vinyl floor and mats too.

Triclosan is a substance found in everyday products like toothpastes, soaps, detergents and toys. It is used for its antifungal and antibacterial properties but can cause altering in the hormonal regulation. Pesticides are a huge group of substances which are found in the water and the food, for example, atrazine which is forbidden in the EU, is still used in the US and is known to cause estrogen imbalance in animals, increasing the female reproductive hormones on the expense of the male hormones like testosterone. 

The cosmetics is another huge part of the problem with endocrine disruptors while women use many times more cosmetics than men. Usually the ingredients list of your daily moisturiser is so long that it is hard to understand what types of chemicals are actually entering your body through the skin. Some of these ingredients like parabens, sulfates, triclosan, toluene, etc. which act as endocrine disruptors are found in sunscreens, shower gels, lotions and many other products. Medications and some supplements can contain a lot of additives which may affect your hormonal balance. On the other hand, healing methods like cold laser therapy is safe, non-invasive and do not include taking chemical substances on a daily basis. 

Household cleaning products can be found in almost every house, from bleach to washing detergents, most of them contain very aggressive chemicals which can cause poisoning or allergies. These active ingredients are potentially very harmful for your body and even inhaling them or touching them with bare hands can cause some health issues in the long term. 

How do endocrine disruptors affect your hormonal balance?

What can you do to avoid endocrine disruptors?

In order to limit your exposure to endocrine disruptors, you need to revise the use of plastics in your life. There are types of plastics though which are endocrine disruptors free like tritan, for example. Check your food and water containers and replace them with metal, glass or with safe plastics. Never use plastic wrap to keep your food in the refrigerator. Think about replacing your bottled water with filtered one, and if your water source has atrazine in it, look for a filter which is specifically made to remove it from your water. 

Try to use less mass cosmetics and prefer products which are free from parabens, artificial fragrances and phthalates. Eat a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables, change to a clean and a balanced diet in order to support your body. Avoid processed or canned or junk food. Choose safe household cleaning products without aggressive ingredients or if you still use such, put gloves and do not inhale them. Support your hormonal balance with your lifestyle changes and with cold laser therapy. It is a safe way to keep your hormones in balance without the use of invasive medications. Low level lasers like coMra will help you detoxify and support your liver - the main organ responsible for the elimination of excess hormones and toxins from the body. Find out more on how to use coMra on your liver and to treat other diseases. As a totally safe and non-invasive method of healing, cold laser therapy is a good alternative to aggressive medications and invasive procedures.
