Many patients tell me they are not living but merely existing or surviving. In this episode, I discuss how many live in a survival mode that is not a short-lived scenario but an actual long-term way of living. When your nervous system is frequently or constantly turned up or activated, it affects not just your nervous system, mind, and body but how you adapt to daily living. This episode examines the survival mode of living and how to recognize and change it.

Today I share with you a part of the workshop I just concluded, the "Healing from the root". In this part, I discuss why many people do not make the changes they want to make. I often hear from patients I know what to do; I just don't know why I'm not doing it.
BIG ANNOUNCEMENT:
I am also excited to introduce you to my new project, the RheumMate membership. I am doing a beta launch of this membership; I am just starting out and super excited to share the news with you. The enrollment is from September 29th until October 3rd, 2022. I am not sure when the next enrollment will be, probably sometime in 2023.
RheumMate membership provides coaching and support for people with autoimmune conditions, chronic pain, and fibromyalgia so you can have the tools to improve pain, stop exhaustion, overwhelm, and survival mode and start living intentionally with plans, goals, and dreams. This membership is intended to be life-changing. If you've been listening to this podcast or the workshops but have yet to implement the ideas I share with you, and you want to implement them but just don't know where to start, this membership will serve as a guide, taking you from a passive listener to a person who is living with intention, who applies the knowledge.

Mind Your Fibromyalgia Podcast - Living in Survival Mode
Transcript
EPISODE 34 Living in Survival Mode
Welcome back to Mind Your fibro podcast, episode 34
When we talk about the survival mode, we often refer to your nervous system's fight or flight or freeze responses, trying to survive an attack or a threat. This mode involves the release of stress hormones and activating our stress-response systems, the sympathetic branch of our autonomic nervous system. It is designed for us to be able to run away or fight off threats
