KEY TAKEAWAYS

In stage 3 stress with very low cortisol levels, restorative practices are the most powerful thing you can do 
You have to create a sense for the body that its safe and breath-focused practices achieve this
Giving the body the message its safe, impact on adrenalin which in turn affects the digestive system and adrenals thyroid and ovaries
Long slow diaphragmatic breathing activates the parasympathetic nervous system
When you are not producing large amounts of adrenalin you use your fat efficiently as a fuel
