Curious if people have suggestions/advice/experience with successfully identifying personal triggers and what strategies they use to create healthier responses? We are referring to a “trigger” in the psychological sense as a stimulus (like a sight, sound, smell, or situation) that brings on a strong, often negative emotional or physical reaction. We created an informal course called “triggernometry” with some friends that uses existing tools and worksheets from the interwebs, but sometimes when triggered we find myself unable to get out of the loop of negative thoughts and behaviors. The idea of the “course” is to cultivate awareness of personal triggers, regulate my nervous system and process the situation so that we don’t cycle through a pattern unconsciously, thus being able to consciously make a new choice and respond accordingly. …easier said than done 🫠 Just wondering if people have some creative ideas and alternatives to move through these kinds of charged situations ⚡️

Rey you say that helping others to grow spiritually makes no sense, but you do it! Would you explain? Thanks Milan

Hello guys. Been awhile. I have recently been spending more time in meditation, allowing the discomfort or wanting to be present and sat through. I had an interesting experience meditating the other day. I found myself during meditation at one point, focusing on breathing then a mantra then suddenly I found myself focusing on nothing… actually maintaining my focus on the lack of something. It was wonderful. I am looking to hear if anyone else has had this experience or just what your experiences in meditation have looked like and what it brought to you.

What’s the difference? Or are they the same 🤔 When we think of soul there is something timeless and eternal about it. When we think of spirit, it’s more like something transferable and malleable. We have many more thoughts, but these are just some morning meanderings, so inviting the forum in to see what else bubbles up 🫧
