Cortisol is nature’s built in alarm system, it controls your mood, motivation and fear. From your daily rhythms to your responses to events; cortisol courses through your body to help you meet the needs of the day. It can feel exhilarating, but is it always a good thing? Can too much harm our mind and body?

In this talk we'll learn about one of our most vital hormones, how it changes our body in the short- and long term, and how we can regulate it better. Armed with this information we can make changes to our life and our body's stress response, which can help our body and mind.
