Chronic fear is feeling immobilized by our anxieties.

When we live in constant fear of the future, we can feel robbed of living in our present. 

Our anxieties are often rooted in experiences where we felt vulnerable, powerless, and voiceless. 

Even after these events have passed, our nervous system keeps our body in fight-or-flight mode. We may experience a racing heart, restlessness, disturbed sleep, difficulty concentrating, and impatience with others. 

Often, it is hard to explain why we feel anxious. This is because our fear signaling is coming from within our bodies, not our minds. 

Chronic fear magnifies our anxieties, putting our bodies in constant anticipation of the worst.

Fear can drive us to build our protective walls higher and higher, which can make our worlds feel smaller.

We may find it challenging to:

  • Trust our instincts 
  • Do what we love 
  • Make new friendships and connections 
  • Connect to ourselves and others 
  • Assert our needs to others 
  • Move forward toward our goals 

Instead of fearing life, feeling safe can help us fall in love with it again. 

Our human biology reveals that we are all on a quest for safety, according to the architect of polyvagal theory, Stephen Porges. 

Feeling safe is often a prerequisite to health, growth, and restoration. 

Strengthening our vagal tone can offer us a powerful way of down-regulating our defensive responses and can help shift our bodies into a state of safety (Porges, 2017). 

Feeling safe allows us to connect with our higher cortical functions, which can enhance our creativity, concentrations, and emotional regulation (Porges, 2022). 

It can also help us connect with and trust in others, enriching our relationships (Porges, 2022).

With time, we can begin to take down our walls of fear and start safely exploring what is on the other side. 

Finding safety in our bodies to restore our sense of security can help us remove the clutches of fear, moving us toward fully living in our present. 

This is why Rewire Therapy has created a Healing Chronic Fear and Anxiety after Trauma program. This program incorporates polyvagal-informed, somatic therapy techniques, which can help you appreciate your body as a site of healing, strength, and resilience.

Emily R, New York
"I bought a course on trauma healing from MindValley but totally didn't relate to the teacher or the content. Listening to female experts who have been there really makes all the difference. Thank you so much :-)."

"I think the weirdest difference I noticed was that when I was practicing the exercises in Week 1... I began to feel my feet again. I realized I had dissociated from my feet for so long."
 
 
Jason R, Los Angeles
"I've been trying to heal my PTSD for years. It always felt like I took 2 steps forward and 1 step back. I just purchased this course and it's already paid for itself. The information in week 1 alone was more helpful than anything else I've done."
