Working with Triggers to Heal Trauma and Shift into Presence
Last year, I flew to Hawaii to attend a retreat with Eckhart Tolle. The entire time, I kept getting these signs that I was out of the zone of tolerance. I was triggered again and again in major ways that I hadn’t experienced in years, despite turning to my tools and practices to bring myself back to presence. I’m sharing my experience with you here so you can witness the value of recognizing your triggers and facing them head-on, even when it can be incredibly uncomfortable. I share how my practices gave me the self-awareness and compassion I needed to notice when I was out of my zone of tolerance, how I created an intense release of emotion to release the trigger, and the effect this work had on my ability to remain present in my life. My wish for sharing this experience is that you can see there’s always a juicer, stronger layer for you to step into if you continuously practice the work. “When we get triggered by things that happen, it's a gift because we have the chance to let those emotions out all the way through… that energy that was stored that was keeping me from being present is released and I'm connected to who I really am.” —— JOIN THE EMAIL LIST TO RECEIVE NON-OBVIOUS THINKING ABOUT PERSONAL GROWTH alisoncrosthwait.com/list HOW TO MICRODOSE FOR TRANSFORMATION GUIDE expandwithmicrodosing.com APPLY FOR EXPAND TO STEP FULLY INTO THE LIFE YOU DESIRE If you are ready to step fully into what you are here to do and live every day with the kind of magic you know is possible, apply for Expand.
