Staying with yourself when you're triggered
A free guided audio and companion guide

This short audio offers a different approach

When anxiety, self-doubt, or strong emotions take over, many of us try to calm ourselves by pushing harder, thinking faster, or telling ourselves to stop.

And it rarely works.

This short audio offers a different approach.

Instead of trying to fix or override what’s happening inside, you’ll be guided to notice the moment before a reaction takes over — and to stay with yourself in that moment, with more steadiness and care.

​

This is for you if:

  • You react in ways you don’t choose — and then feel regret, shame, or self-criticism afterwards

  • You understand yourself well, but insight alone hasn’t brought the ease you hoped for

  • You’re tired of fighting anxiety, reactivity, or inner tension

  • You want to feel more at home in yourself, even when emotions are uncomfortable or confusing

​

This isn’t about controlling your reactions.
It’s about changing how you relate to what’s already there.

​

What “staying with yourself” means

Staying with yourself doesn’t mean indulging every feeling or analysing everything endlessly.

It means learning how to remain present with what’s happening inside — especially in moments of activation — without turning against yourself.

​

Most of us were never shown how to meet fear or inner turbulence with care. We learned effort, discipline, and self-correction instead.

​

But we don’t calm fear by arguing with it.
We don’t soften anxiety by shaming it.
And we don’t build self-trust by forcing ourselves to be different.

​

Change tends to come after understanding, not before.

Staying With Yourself When You’re Triggered
A 12-minute guided practice

In this audio, you’ll be gently guided to:

  • Notice the moment just before a reaction takes over

  • Bring attention to what’s happening in your body, not just your thoughts

  • Practice staying present with discomfort without forcing it to change

​

You’ll also receive a short companion guide to help you make sense of what you notice and continue the practice in everyday moments.

This is not a meditation or breathwork practice.
It’s a way of noticing what’s already happening inside — and learning to stay with it.

​​​What women often notice

Women who start here often describe small

but meaningful shifts:

  • The reaction doesn’t feel so sudden.

     There’s a brief sense of “something is

     starting” rather than being completely

     taken over. Even a second or two of noticing

     can change how the moment unfolds.

​

  • There’s less self-attack afterwards.

        Because they stayed present with what was happening, there’s less shame, rumination, or              replaying the moment later. The inner commentary softens.

​

  • They feel more present during difficult moments.                                                                  Instead of dissociating, shutting down, or escalating, there’s a growing ability to remain connected to themselves — even when emotions are strong.

​

  • A steadier sense of self-trust begins to form.
    Not because reactions disappear, but because they start to feel less frightening and less defining.

 

Nothing dramatic. Nothing forced.

​

Ready for more support?

Some women find that the audio and resources are enough to begin changing how they relate to themselves.  Others want ongoing support — especially when emotions feel overwhelming, tangled, or hard to explore alone.

​

A final note

Learning to stay with yourself isn’t about becoming passive or resigned.

It’s about creating the conditions where real change becomes possible — without force, aggression, or self-abandonment.​
