Triggers are invitations to pay attention. When we haven’t explored them or healed them we react due to the dysregulation they create. And our reaction from that unconscious state serves the purpose of trying to protect us. It is not to be shamed, but rather accepted, so it can be understood.

The healing of a trigger is not the eradication of it. But rather the honoring of it. It’s to take the valuable information it provides, and use that to inform a response that contributes to not just protecting and preserving ourselves and maintaining a connection to our own hearts, but also maintaining a connection to others, and guiding us to determine what behaviors we want to allow, and which ones are not okay.

If you find yourself triggered all the time, you’re likely experiencing boundary violations all of the time… Not just from others, but perhaps also, from yourself. Do the beautiful work of excavating where it came from and what it can teach you. There is brilliance in our wounds. #createthelove
