How To NOT Lose Your Sh*t And Ruin Your Relationships


Listen Later

There will be times when you get triggered due to the words or actions of others. When anything feels too much, too fast, or too soon, your body will go into a stress response. We can’t avoid all triggers, nor can we avoid stress responses. However, it IS our responsibility to calm our bodies and close the stress cycles. 

BEFORE you try to communicate in any manner with the other person, please prioritize calming the physical sensation of urgency in your body by:

  • breathing
  • moving
  • screaming into a pillow
  • reaching out to a trusted confidant
  • journaling
  • Once the urgency of the stress has dissipated, get curious about what you made the actions or words of the other person MEAN about you or them. 

    I invite you to consider these questions:

    • When do you notice trying to communicate WHILE you’re in a stress response?
  • What can you do instead to calm your body?
  •
