The first step to emotional health is to be able to understand, and identify, emotional triggers. An emotional trigger is something you may never notice. It can be a hand motion, a setting, a word. It is something that takes you back to a traumatic time. It causes you to hurt those around you - without understanding why.
Admitting that you have triggers is the first step. Learning about them, and sharing them with your family is step two. Giving them the power to help you overcome their power is the last step. All three together will take you to a place where you are emotionally healthier and enjoy better relationships.
Emotional Triggers in Relationships
Most of the anxiety and frustration that exists in relationships can be avoided. The key is to be aware of the emotional triggers that each and every one of us possesses. Unfortunately, the majority of people will wait until these triggers have had their strongest impact and, not knowing how to deal with them, find themselves either fighting with their significant other - or just running away.
It doesn't have to be this way. Once you learn to recognize the emotional triggers that have the potential to set you or (or the other person), you've already got an advantage. The key here is recognize them for what they are and not give them the unnecessary power that too many people do. Everyone has these "buttons" and, quite frankly, if other people know what yours are, you could be very susceptible to manipulation. Perhaps you already have experienced a hint of this?
This is a whole study in itself - and it's worth learning about. If you want to get a thorough understanding of this, then by all means pursue it... the best resource you'll find on the web is located at:

That course (don't be intimidated by the word "course" - it's easy stuff to follow) will definitely set you in the right direction. You'll not only find yourself in command of your relationships that have to do with love - but all your relationships will benefit, including those that have to do with family, friends, and co-workers, too!
This course was referred to by the Wall Street Journal and has been highly recommended by so many people.
Onward to healthier relationships!

Hi Suzanne,
I apologize for sending this through your comments section, but I couldn't find contact information any of your blogs or your website.
Would you be interested in receiving a complimentary copy of "High Heels to Hormones: A Woman’s Guide to Spine Pain," by Christina Lasich, M.D., to consider for possible review or mention on Health After 40? Excerpts and author interviews will also be available.
All best,
Kathlene Carney
