What's your emotional home?
We all have an emotional home and just like the homes we live in we always return there, because it's familiar.
Your emotional home is the place you return to when you get annoyed, frustrated, stressed, made to feel less than.
For some people, their emotional home is anger, they react, defend, shout, shut people down, or push people away. For others, it is anxiety, they overthink, people-please, explain too much, apologise when they have done nothing wrong. For some people its resentment, they keep score, replay conversations and feel unappreciated.
The challenge is, when we keep returning to the same emotional home, we keep repeating the same patterns in our relationships.
The same arguments, the same guilt, regret and the same disconnection.
This is why self-awareness of your emotional home matters, you cannot build a new relationship pattern while constantly returning to an old emotional state.
You have to become aware of where you go emotionally when you get triggered.
The questions to work on, do you go to attack mode, anger, cut the person off? Do you over explain, people please, have to prove you are right?
Once you can recognise your emotional home, you can begin to choose whether you want to keep living there.
Remember this, You are not your reaction! You are not your trigger!
You are not the version of you that comes out when you feel unsafe!
But until you learn to regulate your emotions, that version of you will keep taking over.
There is no avoiding triggers but this work empowers you how to feel those emotions without letting them run your communication, your choices, and your relationships.
What emotional home do you keep returning to when you are triggered? Let me know in the comments.
