From Triggers to Triumphs
|
Hey, Reader, you beautiful soul! Reflecting on Made4More's Triggered ConferenceWhat an AMAZING event The Triggered conference was last week! It was truly an honor to share the stage with a beautiful variety of speakers, each sharing their powerful stories of resiliency and strength. I had the privilege of speaking about Transforming Your Triggers to Triumphs! In case you weren't able to attend, here’s the cliff-notes version of my message: A trigger is an unconscious emotional flashback - your mind & body working together to protect you from a perceived threat. Your mind & body are not your enemies, but loyal allies ensuring your survival. When triggered, your body sends you signs that there you have a repressed trauma coming up. Why? So that it can be healed.
Our unconscious mind has several jobs but the two that we're talking about here are: 1. To repress trauma to protect you (out of love) 2. To bring things up for resolution (healing) The key to transformation? Lean into your triggers instead of avoiding them. Become conscious of the unconscious. Face your triggers head-on to begin the journey of healing.
To work with unconscious triggers:
1. Observe recurring patterns in your life 2. Engage in Shadow Work (it's not some witchy s-h-i-t, not that there's anything wrong with witchy s-h-i-t) The term Shadow Work was created by American Psychologist Carl Jung to describe the parts of ourselves that we hide away, or keep in the dark (the unconscious parts). 3. Keep a trigger journal When triggered, slow down, breathe, and resist the urge to run away. This is your opportunity for growth.
