"Text us your thoughts and questions!"
In this episode of "Triggered," we dive into the psychology behind what happens when we're triggered. Triggers are emotional responses often rooted in past experiences, and they can suddenly evoke intense feelings, whether it's anger, fear, or sadness. We explore how these automatic reactions manifest in our minds and bodies and discuss practical strategies to build resilience.
🔥 Why Listen To This Episode?
✅ Trying to tell people to stop triggering you isn't working.
✅ "Trigger Warnings" are not reducing your anxiety.
✅ You want to be more skillful and empowered to manage being reactive.
