When We Get Triggered

When our emotions get triggered, it’s common to become angry and blame someone or something on the outside. It truly feels as if what they said or what happened caused our unpleasant feelings. However, what’s really going on is that person, place or thing just activated an already existing wound we’ve most likely been carrying for decades. Whoever or whatever activated the pain just gave us a valuable opportunity to heal it. Rather than projecting the anger outward, which keeps us stuck in pain and disharmony, pausing before we lash out and going within to feel the painful sensations, heals and…

Frees us.
