What Causes Panic Attacks?
Panic attacks occur when the nervous system enters a sudden state of alarm, and activates the body’s survival response
What happens in the body during a panic attack?
The nervous system releases adrenaline, increases heart rate and breathing; it prepares the body for threat.
Why do panic attacks come out of nowhere?
When the nervous system is overwhelmed, it can be sensitive to sensory signals that we are unaware of.
How can the nervous system calm down after a panic attack?
Body-based methods that work with the nervous system can help restore stability and calm.
