[QUOTE="EasyHeart, post: 1865838, member: 486455"] Hi, are you anxious, stressed or a perfectionist? If so the stress hormone cortisol causes release of glucose into bloodstream (in case there is an emergency than needs a flight or fight action). Cortisol levels also naturally rise in the morning - this is what gets us out of bed! So it may be you are having a "double dose" which could be a contributing factor to your liver dumping. The way to reduce stress released cortisol is to ensure you allow yourself opprotunity to rebalance every day - take time throughout the day to try some positive mindfulness e.g. once an hour take 1 minute to focus on your breathing and encourage your brain to gently repeat the thought that "you are safe and you are loved". This helps reduce cortisol levels as you can"t feel safe and unsafe at the same time, so the brain gives the body the message that it doesn't need the "look-out hormone" cortisol right now and over time your body is able to downregulate - so there is less background cortisol. Good luck and be kind to yourself, know that yuo are doing your best on any given day, and that is god enough :-) [/QUOTE]
