Adult Child of Dysfunction - A podcast by Tammy Vincent

In this episode, we dive into the crucial topic of dealing with triggers—a challenge many of us face but often shy away from. Ignoring our triggers may seem like an easy escape, but it never makes them go away. Instead, they linger, ready to disrupt our lives at the most unexpected moments.We’ll explore why it’s essential to cultivate awareness of our triggers and how keeping a trigger journal can help us identify patterns and root causes. You’ll learn practical steps to manage triggers in the moment, like pausing to breathe and practicing grounding techniques that anchor you in the present.But we won’t stop there. We’ll also discuss how to challenge and reframe the negative thoughts that triggers often bring up, and how rewriting the story behind your triggers can diminish their power over you. Lastly, we’ll remind you of the importance of reassuring yourself that you are safe, helping to calm your mind and body when faced with triggering situations.This episode is packed with strategies to help you take control of your emotional responses, turning triggers from obstacles into opportunities for growth and healing.If you would like to jump into my signature course, Trials To Triumph, click the link here and then use PODCAST at checkout to get over 75% off! www.tammyvincent.com/courseResources: Grab My Signature Course "Trials To Triumph: An Adult Childs Emotional Freedom Blueprint" for just $24 (a $173 Savings) Grab it here: https://www.tammyvincent.com/course USe code "HEALFOR24" to grab the savings.Do you have a question you want answered on the next episode of "Adult Child of Dysfunction": Visit https://www.speakpipe.com/Tammyvincentcoaching and ask the question.
