If you are willing to look at another person’s behaviour toward you as a reflection of the state of their relationship with themselves rather than a statement about your value as a person, then you will, over a period of time cease to react at all.
- Yogi Bhajan (A yogi spiritual teacher and entrepreneur who introduced Kundalini Yoga to the US. Bhajan was founder and director of 3HO (Healthy, Happy, Holy Organization), with over 300 centers in 35 countries).
In my experience, this takes practice and perhaps some professional assistance. The problem is, our “triggers” can have very, very deep roots from our upbringing and experiences to date. For example, people who have been cheated on, often struggle to trust in their next relationship. The whiplash of post traumatic stress can take a while to recover from. Just sayin’ :) Hugs.
