Endorphin Triggers - Deepstash

Endorphin Triggers

Our endocrine system decides when we eat when we will reach puberty and when we need endorphins and other hormonal secretions from various glands.

Endorphins are triggered by the hypothalamus in our bodies when we are in stress, in pain or are doing:

  1. Heavy exercise.
  2. Meditation or controlled-breathing exercise like Pranayama (Yoga).
  3. Childbirth
  4. Light drinking.
  5. Eating hot chilli.
  6. Acupuncture or massage therapy.
  7. Ultraviolet Light.

Types Of Hormones: Endorphins

Our bodies can self-produce morphine during orgasm, or heavy exercise, providing a release of ‘endorphins’ that also assist in relieving pain.

Acupuncture therapy also stimulates this type of hormones to be secreted in the body.
