Triggers, like stress, can be good or bad. They are stimuli that spark intense emotions. Negative triggers can be caused by various factors, such as past experiences or body image issues. In conversations, common triggers include feeling invisible, dismissed, or controlled. It is important to be mindful of the impact of our words and to ask questions to clarify intentions. When triggered, taking deep breaths and asking oneself and the other person questions can help diffuse the situation. Positive triggers, such as certain smells or music, can also evoke strong emotions.
