Your partner is driving you crazy. They are not communicating enough. They are communicating too much. They left their towel on the bathroom floor. You don’t know why your partner is seemingly setting off your emotional triggers. Everything is stoking the flames causing you to erupt in anger. But with whom are you really angry?

Anger is not an instant creation. It evolves over time. When you feel anger creeping over you, rewind to the moment when your anger started. Then backtrack further to the incident that triggered it. Did someone cause you to feel guilt, shame or hunger? Traveling to the origin of the problem will allay unnecessary arguments and achieve the resolution that comes from solving the issue that is the source of your ire.

Emotional triggers are unavoidable. Learn how to cope with them by reserving your spot for a complementary consultation at The Relationship Suite.
