    Cortisol Care · Founding plan

    Reset the HPA axis without white-knuckling it.

    A monthly plan that treats cortisol as load on an axis with a daily limit. Coached weekly against your own labs. A journal that catches HRV drop, wake-cortisol spikes and sleep drift on day three, not month three.

    Soft purple bands settling into cream paper — morning cortisol curves smoothing across a day, with quiet sage accents and paper grain

    What's included every month

    Why the plan exists

    Where cortisol resets stall if it's just willpower

    The axis doesn't care about vibes. It responds to load, light, protein, movement floor and sleep timing — measured in weeks. Here's the timeline most people don't see, and what changes when a coach is in the loop reading the labs.

    Week 1–2
    Self-directedMotivation phase

    New routine. Meditation apps opened. HRV app installed. Nothing measured properly. Baseline still unknown.

    + Cortisol CareBaseline captured

    Wake time, light window, caffeine cutoff, HRV floor logged from day one. Existing labs read into the plan.

    Week 3–6
    Self-directedFirst stall

    Sleep still fragmented. Caffeine creeping. Wired-tired evenings. Reads as 'not working' — usually a light + protein + caffeine-window fix.

    + Cortisol CareDrift caught early

    Weekly check-in flags the drift. Sabin adjusts protocol. Journal shows HRV trending up week over week.

    Month 2–3
    Self-directedAdrenal fatigue narrative

    Random supplements added (ashwagandha, adaptogens) without labs. Downshift ritual skipped when work spikes. Real progress opaque.

    + Cortisol CareLabs + protocol converge

    Your clinician's labs (cortisol/DHEA/thyroid) get read alongside the Journal. Coaching stacks the interventions that match the labs. Anything unneeded gets cut.

    Month 3–6
    Self-directedRegression at first stressor

    First hard sprint at work — old wired-tired pattern returns. No scaffolding, no protocol to fall back on.

    + Cortisol CareLoad-adjusted protocol

    Protocol scales with load. Sprint gets a plan, not a panic. Downshift ritual holds under pressure.

    Month 6–12
    Self-directedPlateau or quiet quit

    Some improvement, some not. No labs to prove it. Motivation runs out. Original burnout pattern quietly returns.

    + Cortisol CareHeld gains, measured

    Second lab cycle (via your clinician) shows the shift. Protocol is now yours — coached less often, held longer. Off-ramp planned.

    Ranges reflect real-world outcomes in HPA-axis coaching. Individual results vary. All medical decisions (labs, prescriptions, dosages) stay with your clinician.

    The math, out loud

    Bought à la carte, these pieces add up to more than the plan. The Anchor protocol, full Daily Hacks library, and the Movement library (22 traditions) are folded in. Labs are ordered by your GP; Sabin reads them with you.

    What actually happens in each consult

    Sabin 1:1 — 45 min (€110 + VAT)

    Reads cortisol pattern, HRV, sleep, caffeine and light exposure together. Writes the month's protocol into your Journal: morning light, protein and caffeine windows, HRV-guided training floor, evening downshift ritual. Anything medical routes to your clinician — never decided in coaching.

    Weekly digital check-in

    You send the week's pattern (Journal + any labs). Sabin sends back one adjustment — not ten. Logged in the Journal for continuity.

    How recommendations are handled

    Every recommendation lands in your Journal as a dated note you can show any clinician. Red flags (sustained cortisol elevation, thyroid drift, unexplained fatigue) route to a clinician — coaching stays coaching.

    Common questions

    Do I need existing labs?

    Recommended, not required. If you have recent morning cortisol, DHEA-S, TSH, free T3 or a metabolic panel, Sabin reads them into the plan. If not, the plan starts conservative and Sabin can suggest what to ask your clinician for.

    Is Sabin a doctor?

    No. Sabin is a nervous-system coach with 10+ years' experience. Medical decisions (labs, prescriptions, dosages) stay with your own clinician. Cortisol Care is coaching — not medical care.

    What does the Journal do?

    It's preloaded with the cortisol protocol — wake time, morning light window, caffeine cutoff, HRV floor, evening downshift. It flags the drift (three late caffeines, HRV dropping) on day three, not month three.

    Can I cancel?

    Yes — monthly plan, cancel anytime. Your founding price stays locked as long as the subscription runs.
