Podcast description:

Most people think anxiety is only about fear, but the truth is, anxiety is fueled by tension. Mental tension, emotional tension, physical tension, and even spiritual tension all keep your nervous system stuck in survival mode, firing off false alarms and keeping you on edge.

In this episode of The Anxiety Guy Podcast, Dennis Simsek takes a deep dive into why tension is the biggest hidden culprit behind anxiety and how to finally let it go. You’ll discover:

• Why your body holds onto hidden tension even when you “feel calm”

• How mental tension (racing thoughts, overthinking, perfectionism) drains the brain and fuels anxiety

• The science of emotional suppression and why unprocessed feelings keep you stuck

• Physical signs of tension, jaw clenching, shallow breathing, tight chest and how to release them

• The overlooked role of spiritual tension and how disconnection from meaning keeps your nervous system on high alert

• Practical, science-backed strategies to release tension mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually so you can retrain your body and mind for safety

If you’ve ever wondered why relaxation feels impossible or why symptoms keep coming back, this episode will help you connect the dots and give you a clear roadmap for healing.
