What Happens When We Continuously Live in Survival Mode? For animals it is the natural order for them to rely on their instincts for survival, but as humans we rely more on our human connections as we are social beings by nature. 

The end product of living in constant survival mode can bring several unwanted conditions of poor health such as anxiety, depression, chronic stress overwhelm in addition to creating unhealthy relationships. 

If we simply get out of survival mode by letting go of the fear or whatever may be causing us to react in this manner we can then move towards a pleasant place of calm and being present. 

When survival mode is no longer a primary method for your existence and is replaced with the presence of now you will begin to see the beauty of life and see that life is not a race but simply a journey.. 

We create a sense of urgency. Trying to meet deadlines based on false expectations and with that we then self sabotage

Feeling like wer're running out of time creating anxiety because we believe that there is not enough time in the day. We simply need to do better with our time management skills. Feeling like we are running out of time creates urgency which leads to anxiety, which then leads to a negative impact on our health.and job performance. Get out of the habit of wanting it now and live in the presence of now!

Feelings of overwhelm can occur due to constant daily stress, working under pressure and never taking breaks is a disservice to our self and lack of respect to our own body. Being a workaholic may help us to escape the things you may not want to face, but at what cost?

We miss out on the present moment, not experiencing the true important things that really matter, the things that bring us joy or happiness such as precious moments with those we love. 

We react rather than be proactive which adds to our unhealthy behavior rather than carefully plan our day by prioritizing the important task first. This lack of strategic planning will have us running around with no real direction which can lead to poor decision making and careless errors. 

Our plans may not be based on rationalization and logic, but more fear based without carefully looking at all possible outcomes. This is what living in survival mode does and when it is fear based it can be quite catastrophic.

Neglect of our health could  be making ourselves sick!
