In this latest podcast episode, I shared powerful strategies for managing triggers and taking back control of your emotional responses. Here are the key tools to help you transform:
Create a Sacred Pause
When triggered, take a breath before reacting
Give yourself space to notice your feelings
Ask yourself: "What story am I telling myself right now?"
Journaling Techniques
Brain dump your thoughts after a triggering event
Explore what the trigger is trying to teach you
No need for a perfect setting - just write
Grounding Strategies
Touch something physical (a rock, pen, piece of jewelry)
Practice deep breathing (inhale, hold, exhale)
Remind yourself: "I am safe. God's got me."
Remember, healing is a journey. Every time you respond differently, you're rewiring your patterns and growing.
