I Can, I See, I Am: Overcoming Triggers

How you respond and process your triggers is the work we have to do today. Step One: know and accept that you are human and you might be triggered by someone or something at any moment in the day. It happens to all of us and I hope this meditation lends some relief from the "trigger recovery" you may experience. Namaste.

Transcript

In today's meditation,

We focus on overcoming triggers.

We're going to practice this in three stages through affirmations.

The first is an I can statement,

Granting yourself permission to believe that the affirmation can be true for you.

Next,

We practice the affirmation in an I see statement,

Starting to visualize this affirmation coming true for you.

Finally,

We speak it into reality with the I am version of the affirmation.

There's time for breath in between each version so that you can absorb the affirmation deeply into your core.

Repeat these affirmations however you feel.

You can speak them out loud,

Say them silently to yourself,

Scream it if you feel it.

Let's get started.

Three deep breaths.

Reviews

Thank not taking to quickly. Sometimes during the guided affirmation meditations I find the individual talks too quickly for me to actually get the affirmation with feeling.

This was excellent in its simplicity and practice.

Really helpful & simple! I needed this!

Thank you!
Recovering from surgery and this was perfect this morning. 🌺👌

Loved

Very soothing and helpful! Thanks🙏🏽

Thank you

Really great to help with releasing triggers. Definitely one to repeat.

Helpful affirmations. Will bookmark and return. 🙏

Very centering

Thank you 🙏💚

Helped me to relax and the affirmations felt true for me. Thank you!

This is a very good process and easy to learn and use when triggers happen. It would be good to repeat until it’s instilled in the brain anc heart to become an automatic response, yet not just a habit. Thank You 🙏

Such a wonderful progression towards “turning the mind” and empowering ourselves. Thank you for your guidance, Katy!

Very soothing and uplifting. Strong inner work. Thank you.

Amazing practice for my point on my journey. I did not recognize that although I thought I had been making progress on letting things go to make room for new perspectives and attitudes, all that letting go was being undermined by my response to triggers surrounding those situations. I observed my heartbeat yesterday and today as I felt confident and ready to tackle the task I have been attempting, but noticed that my heart rate still went up and t wasn't anxiety being converted into excitement as I can usually do. I realized them that I still had some deeper work to do, and my body was telling me it wasn't quite caught up to where my mind and spirit had reached. I located this practice right away when I searched for something to assist, and it is now bookmarked and on my Playlists relating to various aspects of my present work. Downloading, too, so I can listen at work if need be. I particularly like the tiered affirmations - absolutely necessary to repeat these often for them to take firm root, but this practice is short enough and concise enough that I feel I could put it on repeat for a few spins for reinforcement at any time.

Thank you so very much for sharing your insight and wisdom with us here. I see you and the light within you. Be well. 🤲🏻❤🤲🏻

Excellent. Just what I was looking for to help me navigate trigger moments. Thank you.

Perfect timing for my healing journey

I bookmarked this a week or so ago....and today when I SO needed it you provided great guidance and an effective way of dealing with a situation in which I felt really hurt that came unexpectedly and as a result I questioned myself a lot. Thank you so much for the way you presented this. It has helped "heaps" as they say here downunder. Will use this again. 💗💐💡Kia ora
