Feeling triggered around family this holiday season?
You’re not alone and it doesn’t mean you’re regressing, failing, or “too sensitive.” ❤️🩹
One of the universal laws that can support emotional healing during the holidays is: ✨The Law of Relativity✨
So when your body reacts…it’s not reacting to the present moment, it’s comparing this holiday to the ones your younger self lived through.
That’s why old emotions, nervous system responses, or inner child wounds may resurface…even if your current relationships feel healthier now.
THE POWERFUL PART? 💥
Because perception is relative, you get to choose the meaning you assign to the moment. Awareness helps you respond consciously instead of reacting automatically.
When tension, comparison, or dysregulation shows up, try pausing and asking:
• Which family pattern is resurfacing?
• What childhood version of me is being reminded of something familiar?
• What did I need back then that I can offer myself now?
What your inner child may need today:
✨ Safety
✨ Boundaries
✨ Reassurance
✨ Slowness
✨ Presence
✨ Permission to feel
💡REMEMBER: triggers are not setbacks, they’re invitations. An invitation to choose differently, speak kindly to yourself, and build a new emotional experience.
This holiday season, honor your nervous system, protect your peace, and redesign your relationship with old patterns. ❤️🩹
