概要

 In this episode, we dive deep into the five-four-three-two-one grounding technique, a powerful sensory tool that can interrupt panic attacks and pull you back into the present moment when anxiety takes over. Fabian breaks down the neuroscience behind why this simple countdown method actually works, explaining how it forces your prefrontal cortex back online and shifts your nervous system from fight-or-flight into a calmer state. You'll learn the exact steps to use this technique in real-world situations, not just in perfect conditions, and discover why practicing it when you're calm makes it accessible when you're spiraling. This is practical, no-nonsense guidance for anyone who's ever felt hijacked by panic and needed something concrete to hold onto.
