A Therapy-Tested, Real-World Approach to Defusing Anxiety and Anger Reactions

At home, at work, or even out shopping, we’ve all experienced a moment when we’ve gone from feeling just fine to feeling out of control. Something inside us shifts. We instantly feel hurt, angry, shut down, or frozen. In these moments, we’ve been triggered, according to therapist and bestselling author Susan Campbell. In From Triggered to Tranquil, she offers a no-blame approach to conflicts and misunderstandings, empowering us to explore triggers and trauma responses and use these as portals to growth and self-compassion. This accessible, timely, and useful book includes:

• five steps to “trigger mastery” that can be applied to any interpersonal relationship or encounter

• specific techniques for relationships with spouses, partners, children, bosses, coworkers, and friends, as well as a chapter for group facilitators

• ways to address triggers related to politics, racism, climate change, and other hot-button issues

A essential "HOW TO" for resolving conflict!

The narration and content of this work is excellent! The words of Dr. Susan Campbell as narrated by Christina Moore were engaging and informative from start to finish. I was left with a sense of hopefulness after seeing many on my own relationships fall apart from an inability to "work things out". Susan (as told by Christina) lays out the landscape of how things go sideways in our communications and practical tools for compassionate self inquiry. Most importantly they provide a clear and concise process to repair the upsets. For anyone who has felt the pain of communication breakdowns in love, family, friendships, groups or business relationships this audiobook is a MUST HEAR!

Mediocre intro to triggers at best

I have been thru several books on cptsd and had hoped this had specific strategies. After a few chapters I felt it was getting no where but to examine whether you believe in triggers and then she said fawning is a fake smile and really just part of the freeze response. So if you're triggered stop it and then you'll be ok.

Two chapters in…

When referring to a man’s independent relationship with his daughter from a previous marriage as a “transgression” that’s a stretch, it’s healthy and natural. Not a transgression. This we’ll be updated when I read more.

Amazing book

I love susan’ book that I have been reading for years now. She is clear, her definitions are clean. She provides a lot of tools that can really help in our live journeys

Essential for…humans

If everyone could learn the process of handling your triggers as described in this book, the world would be pretty much completely transformed. So clear and direct, not sugar coated, yet immensely empathetic. So grateful to have found this book!
