What causes adrenaline to be released? (Panic Attacks)
Epinephrine, more commonly known as adrenaline, is a hormone secreted by the medulla of the adrenal glands. Strong emotions such as fear or anger cause epinephrine to be released into the bloodstream, which causes an increase in heart rate, muscle strength, blood pressure, and sugar metabolism.
Adrenaline: body’s warning / alert: FLIGHT, FIGHT or FREEZE : We DO need our body to warn us if we are in danger, but we are truly not meant to be sensitized throughout the day when there is no threat.
Start healing and manage symptoms with hypnosis.
