Both on the physical and psychological plane.<br \/>\nOn a physical level, this means that this includes our teeth and bones.<br \/>\nOur bones (spine and skeleton) give our organs stability and support. They also provide protection to important organs such as heart, lungs and brain.<\/p>\n<p>On a physical level, there is a connection between the first chakra and the adrenal glands. The adrenal glands consist of two parts: medulla and cortex.<br \/>\nThe adrenal glands (adrenal medulla) produce the hormones adrenaline and noradrenaline.<br \/>\nAdrenal cortex produces a whole range of hormones (one well-known of these is <em>cortisone<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>Adrenaline is produced in your body when your body thinks it is in danger. This is not just about issues of life and death. It also applies to situations when you experience a lot of stress. This can be in situations where there is a lot \"on your plate\", but also when you are very angry, very shocked, when you are scared, or when you are exercising very hard.<br \/>\nThis mechanism is a relic from the early days of man and was of great importance in extreme situations where you had to: <em>flee or fight. <\/em> Being able to react in a split second fulfils an important function.<\/p>\n<p>Adrenaline and noradrenaline trigger the release of sugars, increase heart rate and blood pressure, dilate the respiratory tract, the coronary arteries of the heart and blood vessels in the muscles.<\/p>\n<p>The important function of this, elevated adrenaline levels, is nowadays often not reduced by the extra physical exertion. The result is <strong>STRESS. <\/strong><br \/>\nDefinitely not to be confused with <strong>Burnout.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many complaints, associated with elevated adrenaline levels, include:<br \/>\nAnxiety disorders, depression, hypersensitive to sounds, light sleep, insomnia, inwardly very tense, extreme fatigue, headaches (some of this has already been described in Combination I).<br \/>\nStomach upset, fits of rage, total lethargy, strong nervousness ( this described at Combination II).<\/p>\n<p>And above all, a sense of <strong>STRESS<\/strong>, which can show itself through a total blackout (everything thoughts are gone), strong nervous feeling, feeling like you still have 100 things to do, shallow breathing and many other symptoms.<br \/>\nI have already described this in the flower remedies Cucumber Spice and Cucumber Poppy II. ( 22 and 29 April 2016).<\/p>\n<p>Madeleine Meuwessen<\/p>\n<p>*Bloom remedies are no substitute for medication.
