Publisher's Summary

Work with your triggers to find peace in the painful moments and lasting emotional well-being.

Psychotherapist David Richo examines the science of triggers and our reactions of fear, anger, and sadness. He helps us understand why our bodies respond before our minds have a chance to make sense of a situation. By looking deeply at the roots of what provokes us - the words, actions, and even sensory elements like smell - we find opportunities to understand the origins of our triggers and train our bodies to remain calm in the face of painful memories.

The book offers in-the-moment exercises on how to process difficult emotions and physical manifestations in order to to cultivate the inner resources necessary to deal with recurring memories of trauma. When we are triggered, Richo writes, "we are being bullied by our own unfinished business." Explore what your body's knee-jerk reactions can teach you. Triggers: How We Can Stop Reacting and Start Healing acts as a guide to your body's powerful responses, helping you to remain calm under pressure and discover the key to emotional healing.

A healing guidance from God

I’m so glad that I found this book. It’s such a blessing from the Lord! Now I understand and can recognize what the differences between healthy angry and toxic abuse, and how to deal with the triggers and bear more self-control and love without hurt and bitterness as the Lord requires that we must be a open heart healthy emotion spirituality persons. It’s so helpful!

Very informative!

I'm a therapist myself and I teach anger management. Even though I know many of the things that he talks about, I learned more details and more pertinent information to add to my knowledge to help me with my own life and with my clients. An excellent book! Great ideas to help us all!

very powerful

This book I will keep and refer to as many people in my life as possible. I have finally figured out what I can do to prevent my trigger's from over coming my daily life. I am at the point in my life that I cannot go through a day without something triggering me and it is almost driving me crazy. My mental health is at stake, but now that I have these new ways to practice i can already see my life changing in front of my eyes. I am going to replay this book over and over and over.
