Let It In with Guy Lawrence


Feb 21, 2022

#205 This week I welcome Matt Omo back to the podcast, and we cover the topic of emotional triggers.

At Live in Flow, we value helping people activate their highest potential to succeed, shine, and live more joyfully. With our support, they are able to take powerful, high-road shortcuts to developing their authentic selves and discovering new levels of confidence and impact. And in this episode, Matt Omo and I will be diving into emotional triggers and how to deal with them. 

As humans, we are wired with emotional hot buttons or emotional triggers. One moment we are fine, then someone says something or something happens to push that hot button, bringing an intense emotional reaction. We become upset. We’re thrown off balance. We are unable to think or act irrationally. Not surprisingly, these reactions may be way out of proportion in relation to the actual event. The result? Once we calm down, we usually have regrets about what we did or said. We can cause damage to ourselves and to others. 

The good news is, Matt and I will be sharing 9 ways you can learn to understand and manage your emotional triggers in healthy ways. And we’ll be sharing how we’ve applied them in our own lives to achieve more harmony and freedom. Don’t let your triggers haunt and control your life forever. Listen in to this episode and if you can, take advantage of one of our Live in Flow retreats so you can get the amazing support system you need.
