Cortisol Under Control: Your Step-by-Step Guide to Crushing Stress, Boosting Energy, and Finally Feeling in Control of Your Life

Alright, let's get real. You're stressed. You're tired. You probably don't even remember what "calm" feels like. And yet somehow, you're still alive… barely. Congratulations. Here's the thing: your cortisol — yes, that tiny hormone running around like an overworked intern in your body — is probably the reason your life feels like a constant bad episode of a reality show. Too much cortisol? You're jittery, anxious, and basically a human espresso shot. Too little? You're exhausted, forgetful, and basically a zombie. Either way, your life sucks a little. Most people? They have no clue what's going on. They try "relaxing" by scrolling social media, drinking coffee, or binging Netflix. Spoiler alert: that doesn't work. I know because I did it too — for years. I had high stress since my teenage years, and it took me a couple of painfully slow years of trial, error, and almost giving up entirely before I figured out what actually fixes cortisol. This book is basically me skipping the crap, handing you the stuff I learned the hard way, and saying: "Do this daily. Your hormones will thank you. You'll feel human again. Maybe even happy. Crazy, I know." No gimmicks. No miracle pills. No one-size-fits-all nonsense. Just a sarcastic, tired, but practical guide to helping your body and brain chill the hell out. By the end of this book, you'll understand your cortisol, have a daily routine that actually works, and (hopefully) stop feeling like life is actively trying to ruin you. Now, if you're ready to stop being a stress-filled mess… let's meet your frenemy: cortisol.
