How to shift the negative energy around emotional triggers.

​Emotional triggers occur when we have a strong reaction to something another person says or does. For example, if a close friend shares news of a big promotion, you may feel inexplicably envious, bitter, or angry – even though you want to be happy for them.

Although these triggers have a tendency to negatively impact our overall energy and feelings of wellbeing – it doesn’t have to be that way. Rather, emotional triggers can provide an opportunity for immense personal growth, because they deliver insight into the part of yourself that needs healing, the part of yourself that is ready to shift and evolve and be free to experience living aligned with your truth.

The next time you have a negative emotional reaction to something another person says or does, take a minute to ask yourself the following questions:

• What are you feeling?

• What is your feeling telling you? Your answer is the part of you that isn’t true.

• Now enlightened you have a newfound sense of peace and wellness and positive energy to create and experience what you want for yourself

For example, if you’re triggered by a friend’s promotion, it may be because you’re feeling unfulfilled or undervalued or incapable of gaining a promotion in your own career. The trigger shed light on your limited thinking that has invited you to play small. You can now consciously take action steps to propel your professional life forward.
