My Favorite Triggers: What to Do When You Are Touched

Trigger — is our pain point: a seemingly harmless action or phrase that causes us pain, stuns us, drains our energy, or provokes a strong reaction. Triggers arise when a conflicting situation or a careless 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 throw a tantrum.

In his work, Daniele Novara — an experienced psychologist and educator, author of books such as “Punishments Are Useless!”, “Don’t Yell at Children!”, and other bestsellers — talks about how triggers arise and how to recognize them in advance, as well as shares his own methodology for effective conflict resolution. His book will help readers live in harmony with themselves and teach them to interact with others gently and effectively.
