Podcasts about triggers

How do you handle holiday triggers without alcohol when every gathering feels like a test? The clinking glasses, "just one won't hurt" comments, and family dynamics can overwhelm anyone navigating an alcohol-free holiday season. Coach Zoe has a game-changing perspective: triggers aren't your enemy—they're messengers pointing to what you actually need. In this powerful Joy Edit episode, you'll discover the brain science behind holiday triggers and learn Annie Grace's visualization technique for preparing your nervous system before challenging situations. Instead of white-knuckling through parties, you'll explore practical tools like "curiosity goggles," the ACT method (Awareness, Clarity, Turnaround), and trigger mapping. Coach Zoe breaks down the most common holiday triggers—from party pressure to family flashbacks—and reveals the unmet needs hiding beneath each one. You'll learn why willpower crashes, but awareness builds lasting change, how to make "tonight commitments" instead of overwhelming forever promises, and simple regulation techniques like HALT checks (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) and anchor gestures. Transform your holiday one breath at a time, and create the life you don't want to escape. Coach Zoe is sharing: How to handle holiday triggers without alcohol by treating them as information, not evidence that you're failing Why “curiosity goggles” can shift you from reactive to responsive at parties and family events The difference between willpower and awareness, and why collecting evidence you can trust yourself matters How visualization, “tonight I choose…” commitments, and experimentation reduce pressure and increase freedom A science-backed look at stress, alcohol's brain chemistry, and mindful ways to soothe your nervous system The ACT tool (Awareness, Clarity, Turnaround) and how to build a personalized holiday trigger map Practicing response instead of reaction so your wise inner adult—not old patterns—leads the way How these grace-first tools help you stay present, protect your peace, and more topics… Episode links: nakedmindpath.com Related Episodes: Cravings & Triggers: What Exactly Are They And How Do You Deal With Them? - Reader Question - E36 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-36-reader-question-cravings-triggers-what-exactly-are-they-and-how-do-you-deal-with-them/ Effective Strategies for Setting Boundaries with Family - Reader Question - E622 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-620-readers-question-effective-strategies-for-setting-boundaries-with-family/ Getting Past Emotional Drinking Triggers - Reader Question - E616 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-616-readers-question-getting-past-emotional-drinking-triggers/ Ready to take the next step on your journey?  Visit https://learn.thisnakedmind.com/podcast-resources for free resources, programs, and more.

Clonal mast cell disease is often missed because symptoms vary from person to person, tryptase levels can be normal, and bone marrow biopsies are hard to get. For some people, unexplained or very severe anaphylaxis may be an early sign of a clonal mast cell disease. In this episode, we review “Prevalence of KIT D816V in anaphylaxis or systemic mast cell activation,” published in October 2025 in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. This paper, known as the PROSPECTOR trial, is looking at how often the KIT D816V mutation can be found using a blood test in adults who have had anaphylaxis or systemic mast cell activation symptoms. We break down why KIT D816V matters, how it connects to systemic mastocytosis, why HaT needs to be considered, and how newer blood tests may help doctors catch clonal mast cell disease earlier. What we cover in our episode about KIT D816V and anaphylaxis: Setting the stage: Understanding mast cell activation and anaphylaxis. Why KIT D816V matters: How this mutation fits into clonal mast cell disease, what blood testing can reveal, and when doctors still turn to a bone marrow biopsy. Making sense of tryptase and hereditary alpha-tryptasemia (HaT): Why baseline tryptase, the “20% + 2” rule, and HaT can make screening more complicated than it seems. What the PROSPECTOR trial uncovered: How often KIT D816V appeared in people with anaphylaxis, and other results on tryptase and HaT. How this helps patients: What these findings mean for anyone with unexplained or severe anaphylaxis, and how doctors combine KIT testing, tryptase, HaT, and symptoms to decide on next steps.

Over 99% of homes contain at least one allergen, with 75% harboring three to six, yet winter allergies often masquerade as stubborn “colds” or recurrent respiratory infections. This episode confronts the core diagnostic challenge of differentiating allergy-driven symptoms from viral, bacterial, or non-allergic triggers in colder months. We delve into indoor allergen epidemiology, risk stratification for polysensitized patients, syndrome overlap in differential diagnosis, and utility of location-specific respiratory allergen profiles for diagnostic testing and interpretation. Additional topics include guideline-informed approaches to environmental exposure reduction, patient-centered therapeutic strategies, monitoring of symptom thresholds, actionable counseling for managing dust mites, pet dander, molds, mouse and cockroach allergens, and streamlining through tailored lab ordering guides and reflex pet component testing. Clinicians will gain practical insight into identifying sensitizations, guiding targeted exposure minimization, and elevating respiratory care quality for patients with persistent winter symptoms.

Crystal Hollenbeck and Dr. Rob continue their conversation about the power and purpose of triggers, the appropriate time to utilize communication skills, and each of the seven steps of the CALMING model, including handling residual anger and resentment. We often think that anger is the only option for control after betrayal, but Crystal challenges this limiting belief and offers hope to anyone who is ready to move on from an angry life.    TAKEAWAYS: [1:52] Why should I do anything?

You have to talk about it.”  “I have never seen a client not be grateful for healing work, because they come in with wounds they didn't know exist.”  “Forgiveness is for you, not the person that harmed you.”  “Boundaries are protection, not restriction.” “We never stop grieving. We learn to live with grief.”

Triggers are neither good nor bad, it is how we consciously choose to respond to them that matters. In order to consciously choose, recognizing triggers is key to understanding their perceived effects and directing them.Keeping a notebook and pen within reach empowered me to make note of triggers before they slipped away or subconsciously drove my actions. If I was busy when my past intruded on my present, I would simply make note of the trigger to stop the intrusion.Later, when I was in a comfortable quiet space, I would take out my notebook, look at the trigger, and write out the memory- opening neuron pathways in my brain in the process. Opening neuron pathways allows for conscious self control. Whether we are triggered by a traumatic past, or simply triggered to buy Big Pharma's latest product as inspired by subliminal advertising, making note by hand is key to making wise choices. My new book reSOULutions illustrates how to take control of triggers and ultimately reclaim self control and inner peace.Mark taught me at the very onset of my healing process to make collages as a way to trigger memory. He set a pile of magazines and newspapers in front of me in 1988, and told me to clip out anything that caught my attention and gave me pause. I kept these clippings in a box as suggested. Mark told me that how I assembled all those images would be like assembling pieces of my mind, and advised me to choose carefully. Of course I kept my notebook  within reach, making note of images that flashed across my mind's screen as a result of clipping key triggers. Later I would write out the memory in photographic detail as per birthright methods in PTSD: Time to Heal.Triggering my own repressed memory with collages was a giant step toward healing from decades of traumatic MK Ultra mind control. I found that through assembling the images, I could take control over my triggers and begin consciously directing my own actions.Since my collages are included in reSOULutions, I strongly recommend readers keep a pen and paper within reach to make note of any inspiration or in the event my old triggers trigger yours.My ability to cope with the reality of my experience took time, and I vented through poetry often written in the subconscious language by which I had been manipulated. Double and triple meaning words, making demands of my commanders, and taunting my abusers empowered me to cope. When Mark passed away in 2017, I vented through poetry to cope with the grief of losing my hero, best friend, and soul mate. The vast array of poetry I vented in order to cope may serve as inspiration for you to vent likeWise. These poems are as personal as my collages, yet are freely shared in reSOULutions as a healing tool for others. Taking pen to paper inspires self control and inner peace, in addition to diffusing triggers.Make a grocery list on paper, and consciously question each item to make sure it is something you need rather than something you are triggered to buy from advertising. You will find it easier to stay focused in the grocery store, buying what you need, and remembering those needs with ease whether you look at your list or not. Having written the list by hand will help you mentally retain your list and stick to it without being triggered by products on the shelf.Other ways people trigger themselves may be through aroma therapy, sound or light therapy, church bells and chimes, mood music, and infinite other ways depending on life's circumstances and conditioning.Repetition is the most basic form of mind control, whereby triggers are being deliberately set through controlled media and school indoctrination.  Read the entire article on Cathy's website HERE

The holidays arrive with the best intentions. You have a vision—homemade gifts, a beautifully decorated home, healthy eating habits maintained through January. Then your husband loses his job. You're told you need a new hip. The test results come back concerning. And suddenly it's 10 PM and you're eating ice cream straight from the container, wondering why you can't just stick to the plan like everyone else seems to. This week, I'm breaking down why the holidays create the perfect storm for emotional eating, overspending, and complete overwhelm. But here's the twist: generic "holiday stress hacks" won't solve your problem because you don't know YOUR unique trigger pattern. Most women are following someone else's playbook instead of understanding what actually sends them into the kitchen at 3 PM or keeps them scrolling Pinterest until midnight. Tune in as I walk you through identifying your personal coping strategies when life throws curveballs (because it will), introduce the game-changing concept of "bare minimum Christmas," and share how one of my clients catered an entire guild party—two days of cooking and serving—without stressing once. You'll discover why the highs and lows of your holiday experience reveal everything about your emotional regulation, and learn the exact framework for building resiliency so December doesn't derail you every single year. Want to cut your emotional eating in half this holiday season? Join my Conquer Holiday and Emotional Eating class starting now. You'll get all the modules, office hours to ask questions, and lifetime access for two years. Real tools, real help, real transformation—one Christmas cookie at a time.

Send us a textWhat if the part of you that feels separate is just a role in a larger play—and you're also the director, the writer, and the audience who never left the theater? We dive into a bold reframing of ego, separation, and healing: not as problems to fix, but as experiences within one consciousness exploring its own edges.We start by unpacking the milk-and-drop analogy to show how the one becomes many without ever breaking unity. From there, we talk about the limits of the small self and why expansive states—during nature walks, deep breathwork, intimacy, or NDE accounts—can feel more true than the stories your mind clings to. Nonduality reframes the good-versus-evil struggle as a function of duality, while ultimate reality remains unthreatened. That shift brings relief and responsibility: events are neutral; your thoughts are not. Invest in fear and reap turmoil; invest in peace and return to center.To make it practical, we explore the player-and-character metaphor (think The Sims). You can live out any storyline—hero, healer, villain, explorer—without changing who you are as awareness itself. The hero's journey becomes your inner curriculum: the “dragon” is a limiting belief; the ordeal is how you discover your gifts. We then flip the script on “villains,” seeing challenging people and situations as cast members you've hired to reveal blind spots. Triggers become mirrors for forgiveness and choice, turning blame into agency. Finally, we let go of sin-and-guilt frameworks around separation and meet creation as playful, curious, and ultimately safe.If you're ready to carry more lightness into hard moments, to use every trigger as a doorway, and to remember the peace that doesn't depend on circumstances, this conversation will meet you where you are and walk with you home.

This episode is an excerpt from our video course module on understanding trauma and the nervous system. In it, we break down trauma in a way that finally makes sense. You'll learn why trauma isn't about the “big event,” but about unbearable emotional experiences without a relational home — and why your brain responds exactly the way it does.

What if one of the most common women's health issues was also one of the most ignored? In this episode, Rachael sits down with Professor Jenny Rohn, a leader in UTI research and a full-blown warrior in the fight for women's pain to finally be taken seriously. Together they unravel why UTIs remain stuck in the medical dark ages, why antibiotics still fail millions of women, and how outdated diagnostics keep so many sufferers dismissed and untreated. Jenny breaks down the real science behind recurrent infections, sneaky bacteria, and why women's anatomy and hormones make the UTI landscape so wildly unfair. But this episode isn't all doom.

Elissa opens up about triggers that still appear years later, how grief intersects with trauma, and why survivorship is an ongoing process of unlearning and rebuilding. She shares the emotional and spiritual turning points that led her into advocacy and the extraordinary, grief-anchored moment that connected her to Tala, the young woman whose legacy inspired Tala's Closet. Nick and Elissa also discuss the impact of post-separation abuse, the realities of healing while co-parenting, and the courage required to reclaim your identity after trauma. The conversation expands into community, purpose, grief education, and the life-changing ripple effect Elissa now creates for survivors everywhere. This episode is both a testament to the power of healing and an invitation to believe that rock bottom is not the end of your story.  Elissa interview - transcript -…This episode answers:What does long-term healing from domestic violence and trauma actually look like?Why do triggers and flashbacks appear years after leaving an abusive relationship?How does grief show up in survivors long after the abuse ends?What is Tala's Closet, and how does it support survivors starting over?How can someone still in an abusive relationship recognize the moment they're ready to leave?Key Takeaways:Survivorship is an ongoing grief-infused process of unlearning fear and rediscovering identity.Triggers often surface unexpectedly, even in healthy relationships, and do not signal failure.Post-separation abuse, legal abuse, and co-parenting challenges extend trauma long after leaving.Tala's Closet grew from grief, purpose, community, and Elissa's commitment to honoring a life lost to domestic violence.Rock bottom is not permanent—healing begins when survivors reclaim self-trust, anger, and agency. GIVE THE SHOW A 5-STAR RATING ON APPLE PODCASTS!

Ready to stop living by default? Take the free Rich Mind Assessment at richmind.co to discover your current thinking persona and get a personalized 3-step action plan. You've read the books. You've listened to the gurus. You've tried to work harder on yourself. So, why are you still struggling? Why do you feel like you're stuck on a hamster wheel of self-sabotage? In this pivotal episode, Randy Wilson argues it's not a lack of intelligence or discipline. It's because you were never taught how to think. Randy introduces the core philosophy that will drive the Rich Mind Podcast moving forward: The Gap Thinking Framework. Sharing his own painful journey from losing his career in the 2008 crash to discovering the patterns that kept him stuck, Randy reveals the missing link to success: "The GAP." The GAP is the critical 5-second window between a trigger and your automatic reaction. Most people live with a narrow gap, operating on reactive autopilot. To design the life you desire, you must learn to widen The GAP, move from reactive to responsive, and consciously choose your actions based on the universal law of cause and effect. This episode sets the stage for a powerful new series that will introduce tools like the BS Buster (Beliefs and Stories) and the P.A.C.E. Protocol to help you master this critical space. Mentioned in this episode: Personal development trap, self-sabotage, The GAP, Gap Thinking Framework, reactive vs. responsive mindset, law of cause and effect, decision-making, triggers, thinking patterns. Key Takeaways: You can consume all the personal development content in the world and still be stuck if you don't learn how to think. The key to change is not intelligence or discipline; it's controlling a critical 5-second window Randy calls "The GAP." The GAP is the space between a trigger (stimulus) and your reaction. Most people live with a narrow, reactive gap. To design your life, you must learn to widen The GAP and move from being reactive to being responsive. Your results are governed by the law of cause and effect. By consciously choosing your response in The GAP, you become the cause of your new reality. The greatest gift you have is your ability to choose. Being indecisive is still a choice. This episode introduces the upcoming Gap Thinking Framework, which includes tools like the BS Buster and the PACE Protocol.   Questions Answered in This Episode: Why am I still struggling despite reading all the personal development books? What is "The GAP" and why is it the key to changing my life? What is the difference between reacting and responding to a trigger? How can I stop self-sabotaging my own success? What is the law of cause and effect and how does it apply to my thoughts? How do I start to become aware of my own thinking patterns? What is the Gap Thinking Framework and what will it cover?   Key People, Concepts, & Terms: People: Randy Wilson, Jim Rohn, Earl Nightingale, Tony Robbins, David Neagle. Concepts: The GAP, Gap Thinking Framework, Reactive vs. Responsive, Law of Cause and Effect, Self-Sabotage, Triggers, Patterns, BS Buster (Beliefs & Stories), PACE Protocol, Rich Mind Assessment.

Send us a textThe chase for “special” looks glamorous on the surface—status at work, the perfect partner, the right body, the image of being spiritual—but underneath it all sits a restless belief that we're separate and not enough. We took that tiny idea seriously, and it has shaped our habits, our feeds, and our nights. So we dug deep into how ego engineers special relationships, how comparison steals our peace, and why even spiritual superiority is just another costume for the same fear.From there, we pivoted to something practical and close-at-hand: a simple thought at bedtime that reopens awareness to a living stream of communication running through everything. Think of it like tuning a receiver to a signal that's already present. The words are straightforward—I am not just this body-mind. I am that One, pure, unbounded, and undefiled—and they begin to soften the body's tight grip on separation. At first it can feel ridiculous because the world's insanity is dressed as normalcy. Keep repeating it. Momentum shifts, and the mind learns a quieter rhythm.We also talk about being in the world but not of it—paying bills, raising kids, showing up at work—without letting outcomes define worth. Triggers stop being proof of failure and start becoming your curriculum. Ask cleaner questions: If this is a special relationship, how might it be? What am I trying to get here that I think I lack?

060: Break Room Banter — Health Insurance, Triggers, and Swearing in a Massage PracticeWelcome to our newest segment: Break Room Banter — a more relaxed, behind-the-scenes corner of the podcast where we pull back the curtain on what's really happening in our practices each week. Think of it as the conversations you'd overhear (or jump into!) while refilling your water bottle between clients.In this episode, we're diving into:Health insurance uncertainty — specifically how the potential government shutdown and the possible loss of health insurance subsidies could impact massage therapists nationwide. We talk through what it means, why it matters, and how we're personally navigating the unknown.Triggers that catch us off guard — because even seasoned therapists have moments where something hits a nerve, and managing those internal reactions is real, ongoing work.Swearing in a massage practice — Is it ever appropriate? When does it help break tension, and when does it cross a line? We share some candid stories and reflections.If you've ever wanted to feel less alone in the daily ups and downs of this profession, Break Room Banter is for you. Pull up a chair, grab a snack, and join us for some honest, messy, and surprisingly comforting conversation.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Osansky to uncover the hidden connections behind thyroid health and autoimmune conditions like Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Sharing his personal journey with Graves, he blends firsthand experience with medical expertise to reveal why so many patients struggle with conventional approaches. The discussion explores the often-overlooked factors that influence thyroid function — from gut health, stress, and environmental exposures to diet, lifestyle, and supplementation. Dr. Osansky breaks down how blood markers, autoantibodies, and hormone conversion pathways can guide a more personalized and effective approach to healing. Listeners will gain a clear understanding of why treating the thyroid alone isn't enough and how addressing the root causes can transform outcomes. We also dive into nuanced topics like the role of iodine, the impact of toxins, and the gut-thyroid connection, giving practical insights for managing autoimmunity and supporting long-term health. Whether you're living with thyroid disease, curious about functional medicine, or seeking actionable strategies to optimize your health, this episode offers expert guidance and empowering takeaways to navigate the path to true thyroid balance.   Key takeaways: Prevalence and Diagnosis: Hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, including Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis, have specific blood markers crucial for accurate diagnosis. Triggers and Causes: Stress, smoking, iodine intake, and gut health are identified as significant triggers for autoimmune thyroid disorders. Holistic Management: A combination of dietary changes, such as gluten-free and paleo diets, and lifestyle adjustments plays a key role in managing thyroid health. Natural Remedies: Herbs like bugleweed and motherwort, along with nutrients like selenium and vitamin D, can be beneficial in symptom management. Conventional vs. Functional Medicine: Conventional treatments focus on symptom suppression, whereas functional medicine promotes addressing root causes through a holistic approach. More About Dr. Eric Osansky:   Dr. Eric Osansky is a chiropractor, clinical nutritionist, and a certified functional medicine practitioner who has been helping people with hyperthyroidism and Graves' disease since 2009. He is the author of the books "Natural Treatment Solutions for Hyperthyroidism and Graves' Disease", "The Hyperthyroid Healing Diet", and "Hashimoto's Triggers", and is the host of the Save My Thyroid podcast. Dr. Osansky was personally diagnosed with Graves' disease in 2008 and was able to restore his health through a natural approach.   Website Instagram Connect with me!

Could a past virus be the missing link behind your Hashimoto's? In this episode of Paloma's My Thyroid Health podcast, we unravel the hidden connection between viral infections and Hashimoto's thyroiditis — and what that means for your health.Join Paloma Health as we explore:How your immune system's fight against a virus can backfire, triggering an autoimmune attack on your thyroid through a phenomenon called molecular mimicry. The surprising way certain viruses—like EBV, CMV, enteroviruses, and even COVID-19—may directly infect thyroid cells, fueling chronic inflammation and autoimmune flares. Why some viral infections lie dormant only to reawaken later, reactivating your immune system and worsening thyroid autoimmunity. Real-world strategies for supporting your thyroid when viral triggers are involved: immune resilience, monitoring, and balancing inflammation. If you've ever wondered why your Hashimoto's symptoms flare, or felt like your thyroid health has chronically “off” sessions — this episode shines a light on a lesser-known piece of the puzzle.

Ever poured your heart into tutorials, webinars, or posts—only to hear crickets? Or see "great info" in the comments but zero sales? I used to think if I just explained more, people would buy. But after helping thousands refine their messaging, I learned that info alone doesn't cut it. You need relevancy—those precise words that make someone think, "Wow, that's me." Today on the podcast, I'm ditching generic "give more tips" advice and diving into relevancy triggers—how to nail those exact scenarios so your audience feels heard, builds trust fast, and finally converts. Listen in and discover what "relevancy" really means and why information overload fails, the four pillars of experience (emotions, mistakes, thoughts, situations), how to use identity and hyper-specific scenarios to stop the scroll, real-world metaphors—from car mechanics to comedians—that land every time, and the exact strategy we used to grow 27,000 followers in two months. You don't need to dump every tip you know. You need your audience to feel seen. Ready to transform your message?

Y all, this conversation lit me up. Dr Ayat Mekki is one of those women who speaks and you instantly feel your whole body soften, straighten up, and lean in. She shares so much wisdom on emotional healing, subconscious patterns, and manifesting in a way that feels like someone finally turned the lights on. Talking to her reminded me that we all have these old stories running in the background, and the second we see them clearly, things start shifting fast.We also got into why chaos can feel familiar, why peace can feel almost too quiet, and how we repeat the same relationship patterns until we learn what we are meant to learn. I felt seen, called in, and weirdly comforted.
