139 - Beating the stuff that triggers you

All of us have stuff that triggers us. Sometimes they’re easy to spot, like when your partner asks you to pass the milk and a volcano erupts from your mouth. The harder ones to recognise are the low-level trends of being irritated or annoyed or anxious by something or everything, or the subtle disappoint that creeps into life.

We have a choice – allow those triggers to drag us down, or use them as a signpost to point us towards a better life. When we’re guided through looking at them through a different lens, the lessons are powerful, and we move through that difficulty quicker than before.
