Your nervous system reacts fast.
It doesn’t always stop to ask whether the threat is real.
If you’ve ever wondered,
“Am I anxious… or am I actually unsafe?”
you’re not alone.
For many people, strong emotions were once followed by something painful — criticism, instability, trauma, or chronic stress. So the body learned:
“Strong feelings = something bad is about to happen.”

It means it learned how to survive.
In our newest blog, we gently break down the difference between activation and danger — and share grounding tools to help you tell the difference.
