Do you get triggered easily? Find it impossible to control your reactions due to past trauma? We come at this topic from two different experiences. No reaction is the best reaction. No response is the best response. It’s HARD to detach from the power of negative emotion. But, the power of letting them go off while you remain calm is unmatched. Today we dive into the importance of relying on yourself for emotional regulation. Maybe you’re super reactive when you’re triggered, which leads you to disturb your own peace and disrespect your own boundaries. Maybe you experience deep levels of rage and can’t control it, then spiral into self sabotage and self loathing. We talk relationships, miscommunications, understanding yourself better, not relying on others to console you, etc etc!! We hope this episode brings you some clarity and ah-ha moments!!Timestamps:00:00:00 - Trinket of the month00:01:20 - Normal People yap00:04:41 - Regulating your emotions00:05:43 - being reactive in relationships00:08:37 - impulsivity from anger00:09:46 - Feeding off of negative reaction00:16:09 - you’re not nagging, they’re just not listening00:16:49 - when you’re in an argument00:19:50 - regulating your OWN emotions00:22:36 - ego and pride00:25:35 - the energy of emotions (anger)00:29:07 - not reacting + letting go of anger00:32:05 - speaking each other’s love language 00:39:51 - the type of scrolling you do00:40:42 - negative comments online00:49:45 - road rage story time01:00:02 - no consequences 01:01:05 - the let them theory01:03:46 - toxic aggression & control01:08:19 - middle school bullying story 01:10:30 - standing your ground is POWERFUL01:14:43 - wrap up
