Most of us have developed coping strategies throughout our lives because we did not know how to deal with pain in a healthy and effective way. So many times when we are triggered by someone or something we resort to our coping strategies. This is not always a bad thing as these strategies served an important purpose- to protect us in some way. As we grow and evolve we do want to learn how to go inward when we notice our triggers and ask ourselves what does this wounded part of ourselves really need? There is almost always a wounded part of ourselves that needs to know that everything is ok no matter what is going on in our lives. This part of ourselves probably needs self-compassion and self-love. Deb actually shares that it is an act of self-love when we deal with our triggers in a compassionate and loving way. This is what she does for her clients time and time again. When we can learn how to hold ourselves in a loving and compassionate way then we can begin to heal. Deb has so much insight and wisdom on this topic and you won’t want to miss this one.
“The people who trigger us to feel negative emotions are the messengers. They are messengers for the unhealed parts of our being.” ~ Teal Swan
