Ever had a small comment or situation send your thoughts into overdrive? That’s the spiral — when a moment triggers past hurts, and suddenly you’re reacting to more than what’s in front of you.
In this episode of Generate Joy, Amy unpacks what “being triggered” really means — separating the trendy social media version from the true psychological definition — and why it matters for your emotional and spiritual health. She’ll walk you through the P.A.U.S.E. Method, a simple, faith-based tool you can use anytime to stop spiraling thoughts and respond with wisdom instead of reaction.
You’ll discover:
- The real difference between pop-culture “triggered” and actual triggers
- Why your brain and body react as if the past is happening right now
- How emotional maturity helps you handle strong feelings in a healthy way
- A simple, biblical framework to regain peace in the moment
You are not stuck. You are not “too emotional.” And you are not alone. God is with you in the middle of the swirl — and with His help, you can lead your thoughts, protect your peace, and walk in joy.
📖 Key Verses: 2 Corinthians 10:5, Psalm 46:10, Isaiah 41:10
