Emotional triggers…they are powerful and feel like explosions that temporarily deactivate our higher brains and take over our inner worlds. We’re left trying to make sense of the fireworks that have sent sparks reigniting old wounds that we keep deep within us. The rumbling can go on for minutes, or much much longer if the wounded parts of us jump back on the ferris wheel of our minds and around and around they go. I used to be drawn to them, but I have no interest in fireworks anymore. I prefer peace of mind and peace of heart that act as a protective blanket over my wounds.
