My favorite triggers: What to do when you are touched to the quick

A trigger is our pain point: a seemingly harmless action or phrase that causes us pain, stuns us, drains our strength, or provokes a strong reaction. Triggers arise when a conflict situation or an unguarded word from a stranger, colleague,... or loved one touches the deepest layers of our memory of unresolved childhood traumas. And then we suddenly lose our sanity, cry, withdraw into ourselves, or cause a commotion. In his work, Daniele Novara — an experienced psychologist and educator, author of the books 'Punishments are Useless!', 'Don't Yell at Children!', and other bestsellers — discusses how triggers arise and how to recognize them in advance, as well as shares his proprietary method of effective conflict resolution. His book will help readers live in harmony with themselves and teaches gentle and effective interaction with other people.
