The Quaking Heart of Fear: Terror's Shivering Pulse

Feeling scared is like having a quaking heart of fear, terror, and dread, its shivering pulse sending shockwaves of anxiety, vulnerability, and panic through your body and mind, leaving you feeling paralyzed, overwhelmed, and desperate for safety and reassurance. This state of intense, all-consuming terror and apprehension can be triggered by real or perceived threats to your safety, well-being, or sense of control, and can make it feel impossible to find your footing or regain your sense of equilibrium. When the heart of fear quakes within you, remember that fear is a natural, human response to danger, and that by seeking support, practicing grounding techniques, and focusing on the things that bring you comfort and peace, you can begin to calm the shivering pulse and find your way back to solid ground.
