Tanya Zajdel – Healing Chronic Fear

Heal From Chronic Fear & Reclaim Inner Safety

Chronic fear is more than just anxiety—it’s a deep-seated physiological response to trauma that can linger in the body long after danger has passed. Whether it shows up as restlessness, nightmares, avoidance, or difficulty trusting others, this constant state of alert can rob us of peace, joy, and connection.

Healing From Chronic Fear: 10-Minute Techniques for Healing Chronic Fear and Living in the Present offers a trauma-informed, polyvagal-based, somatic therapy approach to help calm the body, release fear, and restore your sense of self-agency.

Backed by leading trauma experts like Dr. Stephen Porges, Dr. Peter Levine, and Dr. Gabor Maté, this program teaches you how to work with the body—not just the mind—to access real, lasting healing.

🌱 Why Chronic Fear Persists

When we’ve experienced trauma—especially if it left us feeling powerless or unseen—our nervous system may remain locked in fight, flight, or freeze.

Even long after the event, we may experience:

Heightened vigilance or paranoia

Fear of abandonment or rejection

Sleep disturbances and nightmares

Difficulty making decisions or setting boundaries

Fear of failure, love, or success

Restlessness or racing thoughts

This program helps shift these patterns using proven somatic techniques and polyvagal theory to guide your body back into a state of regulation and safety.
