Hi everyone, it’s Roslyn, your Codependency recovery specialist here. Today’s topic is triggers, which are here to show us where we don’t love ourselves. What has prompted this is that I’ve had a few triggers myself in the last few days. So, what I mean by this is when we’re triggered from the outside, it’s a feedback mechanism to show us where we’re not loving ourselves on the inside. Again, to get support with that if you have to, and to help work it through on the inside. Nothing can trigger us on the outside if it’s not already inside of us. So, we don’t look out there to control or fix out there. What we do is we turn it around with support. You know that I’m very big on getting support because someone else can see it from a different perspective and can ask you questions to draw it out and also give you some support and help in what is the kindest, most loving thing to do for yourself when you are triggered and in pain.
That way, we allow the pain to come up; it’s our pain to deal with. If it wasn’t in us, the pain wouldn’t be happening. So, get support to deal with your own pain so it lifts organically, and you’re not going out there trying to control or fix something on the outside. And remember, if you are triggered by something at the moment or you have been and would like to have a chat with me, please reach out. I offer a free 20-minute chat where I can provide you with insights to help you take responsibility for the trigger, your own pain, and your own healing and recovery. Thank you.
