Panic, Anxiety, Awakening Supplement Protocol
As I live this life I am constantly tracking what is occurring in my body and how to enhance feelings of vitality and mitigate/eliminate illness,/stress and dis-ease in my body. As an empathic human, I feel surges of intensity on a daily level and it can be very overwhelming. Whether it is from too much noise in my home with three boys running around, stress from hearing world news, relationship disharmony, or empathic response to something unknown, I have created “systems” to help myself stay balanced. These are the friends I turn to (in the form of nutritional supplements) when I feel waves of anxiety and panic.
FIGURE OUT WHAT SYSTEMS ARE OUT OF BALANCE BY WHAT SUPPLEMENTS HELP
We can assist in three main areas in our bodies for stress response.
General Nervous System (calms the brain and nervous system in general)
Adrenal System (hormonal stress response system, works to bring cortisol levels down)
GABA neurotransmitters (brain chemical that calms the system)
GENERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM CALMER
Magnesium Theonate. This form of magnesium crosses the blood brain barrier and is very calming. It also helps with neuro-inflammation (like from a concussion).

General maintenance for our stress response system:
Ashwagandha Complex by MediHerb. 1 tablet a day maintenance and you can take two tablets a day if needed at the time of stress. My mom uses this for long car rides.
