Ways to lower cortisol.

Thanks @Keeping_positive1 for starting this thread. :)

I was certainly in a very toxic state before I was diagnosed with cancer. Oh well I could blame it on the husband but I was responsible for how I felt and could have done better and have a better mental and emotional state back then. I was bottling a lot a lot of bad feelings within me for a long time because our marriage was on the rocks. But who knew that that was no good. It took a cancer diagnosis and lots of reflection before I realised how toxic I was. Eversince, I have learnt to talk about things rather than bottle it up. I have learnt to express myself much better and free my spirit of any bad feelings as soon as I can.

Exercise and a better diet are also important to me now. I was practically not exercising before my diagnosis, sleeping little, eating badly because I was so caught up in my work. Toxic body toxic mind toxic heart. I never want to go back to that state.

I am still working at laughing more :D
