Triumph Over Triggers: Recognize Triggers and Power Your Recovery (Episode 142)
In this episode, we dive into the pivotal role of triggers in the recovery process. Triggers are emotional and environmental cues that can spark intense emotions and lead us back into destructive behaviors like drinking, drug use, sex, shopping, gambling, or other addictions or emotional challenges. By understanding what triggers are and how they manifest, we can protect ourselves from relapse. We explore how triggers often stem from past experiences, particularly childhood trauma, and how they can manifest as emotions, thoughts, or physical sensations. This episode also delves into the power of incorporating faith and spirituality into recovery, offering hope and reassurance by recognizing God’s role in understanding our triggers. We discuss the importance of mindfulness and being present in the moment to recognize our triggers and make better choices. Through practical advice on developing healthy coping strategies, building a support network, and practicing self-compassion, learn valuable insights to help you navigate your recovery journey. Join us as we uncover how awareness and understanding of triggers can empower your path to healing and transformation.
