When we are triggered, we might explode with anger, try to control the situation, or want to run and hide. We might feel that we are unloveable, that we will always be alone, or that we are not good enough.
Maybe you have no idea why you are feeling such overwhelming anxiety. Your heart may be heavy with depression. Perhaps you are exhausted with the demands of work and parenting. Or maybe you're struggling to make your relationship work.
Maybe you aren't where you thought you would be by now. Feeling a lack of fulfillment. You imagine this person you want to be and this life you want to live but there's something getting in the way. You want to get "unstuck", to move forward. You are ready to harness your strength and heal.
