Today, we’re going to chat about triggers.  Have you ever noticed that you can come into contact with a particular smell and it brings back certain memories from another time or place in your life?  How did this affect you?  Did it evoke positive emotions, negative emotions, feelings, or thoughts?  This is what we’re going to talk more about today.  What are these things?  How do they form, what they mean and how we can overcome the ones that promote negative impacts on our lives.
