#Shorty - Confrontation, triggers, reactions, emotions
A complex and ever evolving topic is understanding our emotions and our relationship with ALL of them.
And the relationship we have with others when our emotions are triggered.
Enter the living workshop we have with people that we have a 'connection' with!
This feels like a really important topic currently; confrontations, being triggered, feeling heightened emotions and the lessons to be learned from all those experiences.
How to best work with these feelings, especially the ones we hide from, deny we have or feel shame over the sensation of, the ones we seemingly go into battle with in relationship with others.
Seeing them as a Divine Gift for your highest potential, evolution and from a place of love and empowerment.
Let's find focus on the positive aspects of our emotional self. Because without emotions, we cannot be human.
I hope you enjoy this episode and receive all that you need.

Episode transcription
Welcome dear ones. I'm Sam Lennie, healer, channel, mentor, and conduit for cosmic light.
If you are inspired by what you hear, and are inspired by the energy that you received today through this transmission, please like and comment on this episode. And please share it on social media. Thank you so much for being here today.
Hey, beauties, welcome to this week's podcast episode. Thank you for bringing your energy here today. As always, it is so amazing to have you with us.
Now, today is interesting, because I recorded the July lessons podcast episode yesterday. And I've woken up this morning, and spirit has given me other plans. And so that's what happens, right? I just follow the prompts, and see what wants to come up.
And the topic of this week's podcast is going to be about triggers, and confrontation. And how to best work with that as a gift for your highest potential from a place of love, and empowerment.
And I feel like this needs to be spoken because we're all in this energy right now. Where a lot of shifts have taken place. And we're left with the bare bones, the bare nakedness of us, which is the new way. Everything that you've ever thought you were, behaved as you were in the past is no longer valid. And as you do the work, that is creating changes and in and discomfort within you, it is also affecting others. And that's when we get this confrontation energy going on.
So I guess I want to start before we even go long into what I want to share with you today. This is a bit of a trigger warning, just be trigger aware that this may affect you, it may reach you on a level that you've either not felt before or that you feel uncomfortable with. And so you can choose not to listen to this at all. Use your ability to make your own choices as to whether you continue to listen to this now.
You know, I'm not saying that this is gonna be like a big "Oh my god, this is gonna be dramatic", and it's gonna, you know, negatively affect you. But I suppose it's a bit of a trigger 101. So let's just get to it.
Clients are noticing, and even I'm noticing in my world where there is this residual stuff going on as a result of the work that you're doing on yourself to come to your truth. So I'm going to share this as if you're feeling it, because clients are feeling it and because I'm feeling it as well.
Have you noticed more deeply that confrontation is feeling more uncomfortable?
Maybe you are, or have been somebody that hasn't enjoyed confrontation and has wanted to stay away from difficult discussions, anything that creates triggers in yourself or in other people.
You might be finding that you are being triggered by different types of confrontation, maybe you're being confronted by things that you wouldn't have normally been confronted by before, maybe people are coming out from your past, and suddenly showing up, maybe online, or you know, visibly to you that are saying things, sharing stuff that is triggering, that is creating some kind of reaction in you.
The thing is, with confrontation, it's like, the emotions around that, the feeling around that is so, so, so, so useful. And that's because it serves as a powerful light, for you to see where you have healing to do. And when you have integration of those denied aspects of healing, to become your fully, worthy, and fully aligned, complete self.
And when we're feeling uncomfortable, the discomfort often comes from being triggered. And the triggers are the emotional reactions, to situations to people. Those reactions, which are emotions can be anything from fear, and embarrassment, maybe rage at the worst, shame, guilt, any of those lower vibrational emotions, but they're so useful, because they let you know where any of those emotions that I've just shared, are present within you.
And it's because they are there to tell you something, they're there to tell you that there is a deep meaning that wants to be shared, wants to be seen, wants to be observed by you, so that you can take it and make it useful.
You see, the thing is, you're a human being, we're human beings. And we are designed, our makeup is such that we are here to be triggered for a reason. Everything has a reason for being nothing is wasted. And triggers are the same. Triggers might not be wanted. And those triggers might not be understood in the moment. But everything is everything is because it's what you've asked for.
It's by design, you've called it in on a soul level. So your soul has pre ordered it has designed for it to be here for you. And so everything you're experiencing emotionally, everything that you are being emotionally affected by. That's your experience. And it is an experience that you may well have felt time and time and time again. You may have felt it in another life, you may have felt it throughout your years in this life.
And you may have chosen to bring that feeling through from previous lives, because you hadn't quite integrated and learned from it yet. And so you brought it in here. None of this is an accident. And it's all completely completely, completely deliberate because you designed it as so.
And I feel like I'm sharing this today, it's a powerful it's a powerful thing, right? It feels like one of the most important messages, the most important piece episode that I've done so far.
If you're a regular listener to this podcast, or if you're a client, then you'll know that I often use this phrase, "feeling is revealing is healing". And this really does relate to the emotions that are felt around triggers. You have to learn to love your trigger experiences, and embrace the emotions that come about from that trigger taking place.
And let light shine on them. Let those emotions, let the triggers be your teacher and be your student, let yourself be your own student, learn the meaning of the triggers, that the emotions be within you. Let the emotions be present, let your emotions be absorbing into your body.
I'm not saying that you've got to take the details of the experience that's related to the trigger on, particularly if it's traumatic, particularly if it's to do with something really detrimental relating to your past, you don't take on the experience, you just allow the emotion to be present within you, let it absorb into your being and give it as much space as you would the energy of joy, the energy of love, like you know how those words feel right?
That full, embodied, euphoric feeling. Let the lower emotions also have a full body presence. It can be so easy to disassociate yourself from an emotion that is related to a trigger.
Do you find yourself resisting the discomfort of an emotion? If that's true, then don't resist it. You can think of the trigger as activating your inner GPS system, your inbuilt system. Because what it does, when that trigger arises, it's like your GPS hones in. And it's a powerful magnifying glass for identifying where that emotion is tied into, where it originates from.
And it's going to speak directly to a part of you that you've denied about yourself.
Let me give you an example. And I think this is an example that we can all relate to.
You notice online, you notice that a comment has been made online, from an old friend, somebody you known for a long, long time, maybe in your friend group, and they tagged everyone else on that post, apart from you. And you see it and automatically you're triggered.
And it brings in feelings of loneliness, maybe fear of not being liked, maybe a feeling of being isolated, feelings of sadness, all of those feelings.
But the thing is, what this is showing you is where there is a disproportionate energy, where there is a feeling of maybe shame or guilt or insecurity or a lack of worth within self just by seeing that comment.
The problem is that totally totally, totally unravels you. It just makes you reel, absolutely reel.
However, if you are supremely self aware, if you've done the work, you'll notice that this trigger and the experience around the trigger, the emotion, the heightened emotion around the trigger, is simply a message.
And it's a message from your internal GPS system, alerting you to the fact that there is work to do on yourself.
And when you do that work on yourself, you become the most whole, complete and integrated self that you possibly can be. Whole, integrated, completely aligned self. Then you know and understand that everything outside of you everything that you are looking at everything that is happening perceptually to you is happening for you, because it's serving up a reason to go within and identify where those denied disassociated parts of you are ready to be seen and integrated back in.
Because you started, you came into this world as a fully whole integrated, loving, complete worthiness person, a soul in human form.
And so if there are areas of your being that don't meet that criteria, that you can't tick off as being that as being an absolute truth, then you will receive experiences, to show you where that integration must take place.
And the reality is, where triggers are concerned, is that they will keep popping up until you become forced to actually deal with them. And what's also really, really interesting as I found and I know that a lot of people that I work with found is, once your GPS locates a really strong trigger, it will keep doing its best to send you more situations and more people tied into that emotion, tied into that feeling that you have around that emotion, so that you simply cannot ignore it.
So you have to clear it. That's why you get these situations where you think "I'm sure I've cleared this, I'm sure I've dealt with it". "Why am I being dealt this hand again?".
And it's because in order for you to fulfil your soul purpose, to receive the maximum experience of this life, we're sent tests to overcome.
So let's come back to confrontation, or being confronted by a particular situation or person. Particularly in the context of the work that you know you are doing on yourself, the things that you are working through yourself.
There's someone close to me that my present being is triggering the hell out of right now. And that's because I'm clearing and balancing myself, I'm doing a healing around my eyesight, and also doing some clearing around money. And even even though I have only just started some of this healing, and in another respect, I've not actually dived into some of it yet, I've just set the intention around what's going to happen.
I'm aware that my vibration is so potent, that I've even only even got to think about doing some work. And it already sets the wheels in motion. And when those wheels get set in motion, it affects everybody else around me. It will do the same for you as well, with the work that you're doing. It cannot fail to affect those others around you. And so they're being the hell triggered right now, through my shifting behaviours and operations, I'm coming back to the truth of who I am in this life right now in respect to those two topics.
And it's interesting because as I observe, I don't even know if they're aware of it right now. I don't even know if they are aware of the reaction that's taking place within them as a result of witnessing me on some level.
They probably are but I'm not sure they've bought it into conscious hyper awareness. I'm not even sure if they're aware of the thread that links, their re-adjusted behaviours, the origination of that, the source of that. But I can see that the result of my shift is that they too are showing up with different behaviours, saying some really odd statements that they would never normally say, some tetchy behaviour, irritable behaviour and the odd sideswipe, you know, that's those niggly comments.
My ego would want me to go into battle previously. And it's interesting, because let's put that into the context of sacred contracts, soul agreements, let's take that into the context of "this is all meant to be".
Yes, it's all meant to be because it's my attraction point, is their attraction point, we've called it in. But from a higher perspective, we've signed up for this living workshop together, we signed up for this pre-birth, we wrote the contracts before we arrived here. So none of what we're moving through now is an accident.
And it really does call into that saying. "Every action has a reaction".
And the thing is, with any confrontation, or with any response to a perceived confrontation, when you're shifting, you can observe the shifts in that other person. Just remember that it's not your job to work out their behaviour, as a result of them being emotionally triggered.
Your job is to monitor your response to that trigger. And if your response to them having been triggered, is an emotion, then it's your job to understand what that message has for you. And there isn't a piece of learning that is separate from or not associated with another piece of experience or learning.
If there is a learning that is being had with self, by nature, in the field by nature, it stands to reason that learning that education is also going to be a learning and education for that other person as well. You are in a living, breathing workshop, a soul in body human form.
So you chose your body, you chose your contract with yourself and others. And you chose all of the experiences related to that. So please, please, please, please, please see your triggers as an opportunity to dial into your GPS system and ask the deeper questions as to why the trigger is coming up.
What is the emotion related to that trigger? And where does that emotion originate from?
You may well have been carrying it through from a past life, you'll be carrying it through from childhood. And the trigger is presenting itself so that you can integrate the areas and pieces of you that you feel you've (whether you know this consciously or you're not aware of this at all) regretted or sent into the shadows or have decided that they're not palatable.
It's time to bring those in and through the discomfort, when you feel discomfort around the emotions related to a trigger of shame, insecurity, unworthiness.
They are inevitable, because the soul has come to experience things that it hasn't experienced before. And it wants to experience every emotion possible. So as a human being, you have signed up for an emotional experience, you've signed up for a full-living life that is governed by emotions, the full spectrum of emotions.
As you peel back the layers of your energy through doing the work, it can bring up new situations, and new experiences that you don't want that feel brand new, fresh, raw and uncomfortable. In that instance, it's really really, really important not to judge it, or judge your ability to work with it, handle it, deal with it be with it.
It's really important not to give yourself a hard time. And to shift your perspective, so you're not feeling like it is holding you hostage, or you are becoming a victim to a situation because you've started to do some work over here, and it's had this snowball effect. And all of a sudden, you're left, you're sitting in a situation that you didn't expect.
None of what you've experienced, or what you've not experienced, you can take that as simply a part of the process for which you can discover so much more about yourself.
So if you're feeling confronted right now, or you're in a confrontational position, because of someone or something that's going on outside of you, the best thing you can do right now is to come back to yourself, create some space for yourself.
And ask yourself these questions.
What is this confrontation teaching me right now?
What am I witnessing within myself?
As I receive this trigger, what is the actual emotion that I'm being presented with right now?
What does it represent? Is it fear? is it guilt, is it shame,
Identify it. Sit with it. And then through contemplation, through meditation, ask your highest self to be shown where this has originated from.
Because when when you are able to be aware, you're revealing it and healing it. And just remember that we've gone through so many, so many, so many years and decades and centuries, of society of culture where we've been trained, or we've been programmed, or we've modelled ourselves to not witness and be present with the difficult emotions.
Because that's had labels... vulnerability is a negative, this is a negative, that's a negative. This really is the time now to lean into and fully embrace all of your emotions.
Remember that you have called them in. I know that that in itself is going to sound triggering to some people. But I also trust that because you are here listening to this podcast, that you will allow this information to land with you.
If it is triggering you, you have called it in you've called it in deliberately to learn from it, too. Shift your perspective, but also to integrate the energy associated with it. So you become become one you can become whole.
You can have become complete, integrated, and totally totally, totally aligned. That knowing and that place of being takes you from being a victim, to being fully empowered, fully self responsible, and able to create your reality.
Let me know what is going on for you trigger wise, share your experiences, I always love to hear how you have received this episode.
And let your triggers help you to do the work that's necessary. So that you can honour your soul, create freedom, and live the life that you are calling in and you destined yourself before. This isn't about you labelling, whether you should or need to be happy all the time, or saying "God, I'm always so miserable all the time".
That is a form of judgment, a form of self judgment. So I don't want you to get into that cycle of pressure around your feelings.
Or concerns of whether you're spending more time in one feeling, but you want to be in another.
Judgment creates separation. It creates dissociation from the infinite being that you are. So if you're feeling any form of judgment around any of your feelings, the first task for you is to let go of judgment, because it will create space within you, for you to share, for you to see another perspective, that is going to be so beneficial for your next move, your next action taking.
I hope I hope this is a much needed reminder for you today. Like I say, I didn't know that this was going to happen. This podcast episode this morning. And it's divinely timed, divinely guided, right? I just get the call. And then I do as I'm told. That's it. That's what happens.
And so next week, having already recorded the channelled message for July, it gives me another few days to integrate the message so I can share my interpretation of it.
If you would like more episodes on emotions, triggers, integration, all things feelings related. Do let me know.
Let's wrap it up for today. I'm sending you so much love. And gratitude to you for listening today. If this resonates with you, and you know that this message will resonate with someone else, please share it on social media, please send it on email to somebody that you love and you know, it makes a big difference to us all. Also want to give it some stars and leave me a review, I'll be eternally eternally grateful.
Until next time, I'll see you soon take care.
