Have you ever felt the Urge to act on your reaction?
Like truly unstoppable force within your body that you feel like you can't contain?
But it’s just a sensation.
Not a command.
Most of the time, we don’t react to the situation.
We react to the urge.
The urge to:
➡ Say something
➡ Eat something
➡ Fix it
➡ Explain it
➡ Leave
➡ Start over
And when we follow every urge…
we stay in the same patterns.
This is where everything we’ve been working on comes in.
Containment is what helps you hold the urge.
Regulation is what helps it settle.
And then…
you get to choose.
You don’t need to get rid of the urge.
You just need to recognize it before you automatically act on it.
Where does an urge usually take over for you?
