~ Being Triggered ~
I was having multiple surgeries in my mouth (in the same spot) so, yet another day of hoping we were done, I went in for a follow up appointment.
When the doctor walked into the room, my heart sped up and my palms were instantly coated in sweat. My physical response startled me, and in true Jan-fashion blurted out, “Oh, I don’t think my body likes you right now!”
I had been triggered. My body remembered what had happened the last five visits over a four month period when I had been with that doctor, and now my body went into a stress memory response.
Being Triggered
The energies coming through – starting September 11th and then amped up on September 15th (and will continue) – are bringing to the surface stuff we hadn’t yet healed and released. Just when you think your storage warehouse is empty…surprise! Out pops another unresolved thing.
These can be from distant past to current past, and they are being triggered now. The energies are pushing it out for us to see and/or feel it, heal it and release it.
It’s my opinion, or perhaps experience, that these triggers are not subtle at all. Oh, and when triggered, one major response is anger; but it’s not limited to anger. Grief, fear and other fear-based emotions can surface.
We are also revisiting the past in other ways as well – especially reminiscing about someone or some incident or event from our past – and it’s not limited to traumatic events or experiences; we are also reminiscing on the positive and happy ones as well.
Healing and Releasing
For any triggers coming up, I’m doing Ho’oponopono to heal and release the negative energetic, mental and/or physical responses I’m experiencing.
When you to Ho’oponopono…
I’m Sorry
Please Forgive Me
Thank You
I Love You
…each statement is complete. For example, it is NOT “I’m sorry for…” it is simply, “I’m sorry.”
It is not, “Please forgive me for…” it is simply, “Please forgive me.”
Ho’oponopono is an easy concept to understand, but not necessarily easy to implement. And for me, talk about being triggered! The first time I tried it, I said, “I’m sorry”, and off I went. “I’m not sorry! I didn’t do it, she did! She should be apologizing!” And there’s the victim-type energy; not where we want to be.
Yeah, like I said, it may not be so easy to implement. I did keep at it, and for me, the results were just shy of being miraculous and very much worth it. I highly recommend it.
Recommendations
I recommend that if you’re triggered, allow the emotion to be recognized and let it flow right out of you.
If it doesn’t flow out, then perhaps do Ho’oponopono.
I Love You
I’m Sorry
Please Forgive Me
Thank You
I also recommend counseling if you seem to be unable to move out of any triggered negative responses.
It’s time to let it go.
I’m not sure if anyone gets stuck in revisiting positive past experiences, but I’m not a counselor. If you can’t seem to move on, please seek a professional mental health practitioner.
