Anxiety & Panic
Anxiety and panic can feel overwhelming, unpredictable, and deeply physical. Racing thoughts, rapid heartbeat, tightness in the chest, shortness of breath, or a sudden sense of fear can arise with or without an obvious trigger. While conventional care can be helpful for many, others seek holistic and integrative approaches that address the nervous system, emotional patterns, and stress responses together. This page explores supportive, non-diagnostic approaches focused on regulation, grounding, and whole-person support.
