You may not have ever heard your hormones called the endocrine system, but that is all that it is!
The endocrine system produces hormones and hormones tell the body what to do and when to do it! When your hormones aren’t firing off correctly, NOTHING IS RIGHT. This is not about you just feeling crazy. It is literally your entire body in a completely chaotic state of miscommunication.
The endocrine system’s primary aim is to maintain a stable and balanced internal environment, aka homeostasis. The body does this by regulating functions such as metabolism, growth, sleep wake cycles, breathing, and sexual development through a series of glands that release hormones into the bloodstream. These hormones travel to the organs and tissues of the body where they signal cells act in certain ways for cell growth and function.
There are eight major glands that help in the endocrine system – the pituitary gland, hypothalamus, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenals, pineal body and the reproductive glands (testes and ovaries). Each of these plays a role in various body systems and functions. They determine how energy is stored and used in the body, how the body controls fluid, salt and sugar levels in the blood, and even emotional responses. It takes only a very small level of hormones (or lack of!!) to trigger significant reactions in the body.
For the sake of time, let’s talk about the CEO of this whole set up – the hypothalamus.
The hypothalamus is directly connected to our olfactory system, or sense of smell…. Enter the benefits of aromatherapy! Studies show that scents carried in an oil base register immediately in the hypothalamus and bypass the brain’s need to “figure it out.”
Did someone say essential oils??
If you followed all that, you get the gold star. If you skipped to this sentence, that’s fine too. Here’s the short of it –, our endocrine system is crucially important. Support it well and you might find yourself feeling like a whole new person. Add one way to do that? Oils!
In January many begin working out with huge goals to be fit and consistent. But they run out of steam in a matter of weeks. Those who typically find more success are those who have accountability through a partner or a personal trainer. They need help finding what works best for their bodies so that they can be strong for their unique body types.
Many also have goals to be healthier and have more energy. They’re going to eat well, sleep more hours, lose weight, and get moving. But their bodies have forgotten how to do these things. They have individual experiences and baggage that mean their endocrine systems need a “spotter” to be sure they get stronger instead of burning out or hurting themselves as they work to heal.
