Making Better Choices In Response To Triggers & Trauma

Trauma and triggers present themselves differently for everyone, and even for the same person across time. In this episode of the Reality Check Podcast I talk about a recent downturn in my mental health, as well as the small wins I have had along the way - namely making the choice not to inebriate myself in the ways I have done in the past.

10 stars. I was searching through, seeking meditations on trauma responses without finding what I needed when I hit on this. I have listened to Zachary's live events but never heard a talk by him. I was having a bad day due to trauma triggers, and this one just completely spoke to me. Brutal honesty. I am 40 days vape free and today I just wanted a hit so bad. I wanted more than a hit, I wanted a shot, some wine, something, anything to take me out of it. But he's absolutely right. It's a temporary fix but does not help long term. And the temporariness is extremely short-lived so what is even the point? I am going to go listen to this again. Thank you. ❤️

Edit: I just bookmarked it per your suggestion!!

I have many years of sobriety and I really appreciate it the reminder of what it's really like so grateful to be to be sober today.

Zachery thank you for being real about life. Asking for for help or support is also great self care. I wish you peace 🙏

That was such a RAW and great thing to share. You are brave indeed, and the choices that we make can be difficult and wavering. It was inspiring to hear the struggle that you went through and yet the decision that you continue to make. Very inspirational. Thank you for sharing Namaste.

So beautifully raw & honest, I love this so much… I resonated with it on every single level 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you for keeping this so real ✨♥️✨ xxx
