Are you “just surviving” instead of truly living? In this episode of Positive Solutions 4 Life, Peggy Meyer explores the powerful concept of survival mode—the body’s built-in stress response—and why so many of us get stuck there.

You’ll learn:

  • What survival mode really is and how it impacts your body, mind, and emotions

  • The difference between short-term survival mode and chronic survival mode

  • Signs you might be running on autopilot, hypervigilant, or emotionally checked out

  • Practical tools to regulate your body, restore balance, and start moving toward a thriving state

  • How awareness, self-care, boundaries, and connection can pull you out of survival and into flow

Survival mode isn’t a life sentence—it’s a message that something needs to change. Once you recognize it, you can begin to shift from just getting by to living with purpose, energy, and joy.
