Taking Control & Managing Your Emotional Triggers - Terri Cole

When you think, “This person triggers me. How they are is wrong,” you limit what you can do. You might be right – maybe the person is a jerk – but why they trigger you is about you.

This has nothing to do with blame and everything to do with truth.

If you want to tend to your original injuries and become healthier and stronger internally, changing the lens like this is incredibly important. This helps you have the courage to draw boundaries and honor your preferences, limits, desires, and deal-breakers. 🙅

But you need to own what that is. And all of it is within you.

It's true Terri. And sometimes I see the trigger within the other, my husband, his sister but they don't. They are not aware. So we speak a different language. Different frequency. Sad. 🙏🌈❤️
