#48 - What can I do when you get triggered?

Conversations from the Heart

As we run through our everyday lives, we'll inevitably bump up against other humans who might be less resourced than we are.
Catching others as they're having a bad day can provide us stellar opportunities to increase our own empathy, and we don't even have to say a word.
On this week's episode, we delve into ways to manage our own nervous systems amidst the triggered nervous systems of others, including:

• 4:24 How can someone be verbally aggressive and still profess love?
• 12:59 What yelling does, and doesn't do
• 16:54 How can NVC help me when I feel frozen?
• 24:06 How can capacity building help me field someone else's triggered reactions?
• 30:13 How can I get better at holding my own needs along with someone else's?
• 37:37 The 2 part practice for fielding someone else's triggered response
