In this powerful episode of The Happya Life Podcast, Clare Deacon explores what it really means to break free from chronic survival mode and begin building a life that supports nervous system safety, emotional regulation, and true thriving.
If youâve ever felt constantly on edge, emotionally flat, burned out, or stuck in autopilot, this episode will help you name it, understand it, and start changing it. Clare breaks down the science behind stress responses, explains how survival mode gets wired into the nervous system, and guides you through practical, trauma-informed ways to begin unlearning the patterns that no longer serve you.
Youâll learn:
- How to recognise survival mode in everyday behaviours
- What sympathetic and dorsal vagal states actually feel like
- Why rest often doesnât feel restful
- How neuroplasticity supports healing
- What it looks like to choose regulation over reaction in real time
This is not about mindset hacks or quick fixes. Itâs about coming home to yourself in a way that feels sustainable, embodied, and safe.
Whether youâre deep in your healing journey or just beginning to wonder if âcopingâ is all there is, this episode offers the clarity, language, and compassion youâve been searching for.
If this episode resonates, share it with someone you love and explore Clareâs next-level support inside Blooming Happya or her 1:1 spaces.
Youâre not broken. Youâre becoming.
