Summary
Whether it's living in a culture that's perpetually triggered or working through T/trauma triggers and healing, triggers (or otherwise things that generate a large mind/body/nervous system response) are a fascinating concept. I've noticed some core patterns + stages within the journey of identifying and moving through triggers, and in doing so, learned to use them as tools for self-exploration and growth, and ultimately see them as invitations to reclaim our power.
DISCLAIMER: I am not a psychologist, therapist, or researcher on triggers + responses. This is simply pattern recognition from lived experience, working as a mentor/guide, and what I've noticed comes up consistently in the human experience. The sole intention of this post is to provide potential perspective, to encourage curiosity and examination of common responses, and help shift you into a space of sovereignty/empowerment in your experiences.
