Health and harmony are based on a natural balance. Both deficiencies and overload disrupt this balance and lead to dysfunction in the body.
Our well-being is comprised of mental and physical health. This chapter focuses on mental and psychosocial stress. Physical and chemical stress is discussed under mitochondrial metabolism.
Every form of stress (mental, physical, or chemical) sooner or later manifests itself in physical complaints. The main symptoms are fatigue. Chronic stress leads to a general lack of energy and even exhaustion, sometimes severely impairing quality of life. The body usually sends out symptoms in advance that indicate mental or physical overload. These symptoms should be interpreted as warning signals, whereas exhaustion is our body’s protective mechanism, a biological brake, so to speak. Attempts to compensate for fatigue with stimulants and addictive substances place additional strain on the body and mind and lead to a vicious cycle.
Thanks to scientific findings and technical methods, energy deficiency can now be measured. In most cases, this is due to an imbalance in neurobiological balance and stress hormones.
After a specific analysis and assessment of the various factors, we recommend concrete, individually tailored measures to restore neurobiological balance and promote balance in everyday work and family life.
