In my brand-new workshop, UN-TRIGGERED, we’re going to talk about… you guessed it…
TRIGGERS!
We’re going to deep-dive into the controversial topic of triggers through the lens of the limbic brain and autonomic nervous system.
In UN-TRIGGERED, you will learn…
- how to be aware of when we’re triggered
- what’s going on in our limbic systems (survival brain) when we’re triggered
- why your brain and nervous system don’t know that what triggers you is actually in the past, and you’re just reacting in the present moment
- all 4 trauma responses, their unconscious reactions, and how to make conscious choices when you meet those trauma responses with awareness
- why literally anything has the potential to be a trigger
- changing how we relate to our sensations and to our bodies, whether you lean more toward “hypoaroused” or “hyperaroused”
- primary and secondary nervous system states
- the differences between healthy nervous system responses and dysregulated responses
- how our triggers can lead us into deeper self-love, self-trust, and consciousness if we allow them to
- the difference between being dysregulated and being triggered
- what I personally believe about trigger warnings on social media
In his book The Body Keeps the Score, Dr. Bessel Van der Kolk writes, “The bottom line is that the threat-perception system of the brain has changed, and people’s physical reactions are dictated by the imprint of the past.”
In UN-TRIGGERED, I will hold you in a safe and loving container to explore your own reactions that are dictated by the past.
This is the second workshop in the Feel Without Fear Series because so much AWARENESS is required when overcoming triggers and because we often stay stuck in our triggers due to our own self-judgment.
If your own sensations and symptoms are triggers, we will explore that more deeply in the third workshop: OVERCOMING HEALTH ANXIETY.
After the UN-TRIGGERED workshop, I’ll be hosting a group coaching call to go deeper with you on identifying, facing, and overcoming your own triggers.
Bring your real questions, “what ifs”, fears, doubts, and whatever else you want coaching on and I’m HERE FOR IT.
