The Cortisol Crisis™

How it’s affecting your people, your business and your bottom line

We all know that we live in a very fast-paced, high-stress world. What we might not know is that this can create a continual stream of stress hormones being released in to the body, resulting in the Cortisol Crisis™:  reduced performance, depleted levels of energy, poor sleep, increased body fat, extreme appetites and eating patterns, as well as decreased health and immunity.  Many of us who are stressed out may cope by turning to things that are bad for us - French fries, donuts, alcohol, cigarettes, working longer hours, or skipping workouts - adding several more layers of stress!

Stress carries a high cost not only personally, but professionally as well, costing the U.S. economy more than $200 billion per year.  Companies need to run leaner and meaner, yet health care costs continue to rise.  People are busier and more stretched for time than ever, making a healthy lifestyle difficult to achieve.

As a solution, Jenny Evans, international speaker and exercise physiologist, has developed PowerHouse Hit the Deck™ to combat the Cortisol Crisis™:  short bouts of intense physical activity that release endorphins - “the bliss molecules” - that flush out the toxic stress hormones.  

This intelligent and innovative strategy teaches you to:

  • Boost your threshold for stress
  • Improve your overall levels of productivity and energy 
  • Increase the quality of your sleep
  • Successfully manage body fat levels
  • Elevate your level of fitness

PowerHouse Hit the Deck™ also provides a cardiovascular and resistance training program that can be done anytime, anywhere with no fitness equipment - perfect for anyone who travels or can’t make it to the gym.

This dynamic speaking engagement combines interactive exercises and enlightening information that provide simple, effective strategies to incorporate in to your lifestyle right away.  

You’ll also learn:

  • Nutrition practices that minimize stress in the body
  • Exercise techniques that provide more results in less time
  • Sleep strategies that improve your ability to fall asleep and stay asleep
  • How to improve your performance and energy both at work and at home

If you are short on time, feeling stressed, tired, or out of shape, you can’t afford to miss the opportunity to gain new insight on how to make stress work for you!

 

 

Does This Stress Make Me Look Fat? 

Unfortunately it can, and it’s not just our coping mechanisms of reaching for comfort foods that contribute.

Stress stimulates a cascade of physiological responses that make us store more fat around the midsection, lead to extreme appetites and eating patterns, and deplete our energy levels.

With a blend of humor and science, Jenny will teach you:

  • The physiological connection between stress and appetite
  • The science behind why you crave certain foods when stressed
  • Eating patterns and how they increase or minimize stress on the body
  • Nutrition strategies to reduce stress on the body
  • Ways to increase your threshold for stress
  • How to recover from stress more quickly and efficiently
  • The association between stress and body fat and how you can positively influence both your lean muscle and fat mass

No matter where you live, whether or not you travel, what foods you have available to you, and whether you like to cook or not, you’ll gain an understanding of simple, yet very effective methods to stay balanced during trying times.

“I selected Jenny Evans to work with the entire Clinique North American Sales and Education executives. Though we were fortunate to work with a number of outstanding outside consultants, Jenny was one of the special few who made a lasting impression and directly contributed to the health and productivity of our team. As someone who specializes in adult education methods and talent development, I was impressed not only with Jenny's level of expertise in physiology, nutrition and exercise, but also with her ability to deliver a compelling message in an always engaging, respectful and positive manner. Jenny's strategies for good health and fitness work. Best of all, based on Jenny's contribution, many executives reported positive long-term benefits after working with Jenny: healthy and lasting weight loss, decreased levels of stress and higher levels of energy. Jenny convinced our executives, many of whom traveled a large portion of the week, that they could successfully handle the challenges of eating healthfully and exercising on the road. Jenny is a powerful role model who “walks the walk” as she balances a challenging career and the demands of home, family and community. She truly was an inspiration to our field both during the time we worked with her and long after. Based on my experiences, I would not hesitate to recommend Jenny to any organization that wants to boost the health, fitness and performance of every individual on their team.”
