131. Checking Our Triggers: It's Not An Attack on Us. But, What Do We Do Now‪?‬ The Mindful Psychology Podcast

Today on the podcast, I will be unpacking how to navigate situations that make us doubt ourselves and lack trust in relationships. 

I will break down my 3 KEY STEPS for checking our triggers and developing trust in ourselves and our relationships.

1. Checking Trigger 2. Deciding Whether or Not to Pursue 3. It Starts With Me

We can all be triggered at times. Life happens! Things can kick off and we suddenly find ourselves in highly activated states. The trouble is when we find ourselves LIVING in activated states. 

Then, once we are regulated and have entered a receptive state, what happens next?

- Exploring other ways in which we can stay stuck in our trauma
