Resumen del Editor

Therapy-tested real-world techniques for defusing anger and anxiety triggers in any situation, with anyone, and for everyone’s benefit.

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. As best-selling author and therapist Susan Campbell shows, in these moments, we’ve been triggered.

In From Triggered to Tranquil, Dr. Campbell shows how a remark, tone of voice, facial expression, or other interpersonal cue can activate a deep-seated memory of a past wound. By recognizing this dynamic, we can soothe our upset feelings, heal our childhood fears, resolve disagreements, and restore connections.

Dr. Campbell offers a no-blame approach to conflicts and misunderstandings, empowering us to prevent triggers from ruining our relationships. She emphasizes that when we compassionately understand the roots of our trigger reactions, we can also better understand the actions of those around us. As a result, we become stronger and more resilient when facing any upsetting interaction or unwanted surprise. Working with Dr. Campbell’s tools, we expand the size of the world we can comfortably deal with, and learn to take in stride the things we used to avoid.

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!

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!

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.

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.
