RESERVED FOR VETS - Triggers and Strategies for a Calmer Life Learn From People Who Lived it

RESERVED FOR VETS - Triggers and Strategies for a Calmer Life
* This podcast is not meant to serve as medical advice to treat any medical condition in either yourself or others, and is not a substitute for therapy.
  
In this episode, Mathew, Dr. Dave, and Chad (aka Mental Joe) discuss triggers and the importance of communication and self-reflection. Triggers can sometimes seem like “little things” but on deployment, little things can be the difference between life and death so letting things go can be hard when you transition to civilian life. The guys talk about why misgivings can feel like personal attacks, the struggles relationships go through when one person in them is healing, how emotions get stored in the muscles, and the role empathy plays in the calming process.
 
“In a relationship, you both have to commit yourself to try not to deliberately set off each other's triggers because that is an act of war.”
 
In this episode, you'll hear: 
What a trigger is, where they come from, and what they cause
What TRE is and how Chad is using it to reduce stress
Tools to help calm your mind and ease worrying
