This morning, I was sitting in the garden, putting on sunscreen.
In an instant, the smell took me somewhere else entirely, to happy times of beach holidays, the sun warming my skin, the sound of waves lapping at the shore, the gentle rhythm of the tide carrying me into deep relaxation.
I was right there again.
How Triggers Work in the Mind and Body
Our minds are powerful.
A simple scent, sound, or taste can unlock vivid memories in seconds, because our subconscious remembers everything.
And while this can be a gift for recalling joy, it works both ways.
The same power that transports us to a happy holiday can also drag us back into sadness, fear, or anger.
Everyday Examples of Emotional Triggers
Perhaps you’ve heard raised voices in the street and suddenly felt your body tense, heart racing, as if you were back in your childhood home, listening to your parents argue just before they separated.
Or a song plays on the radio and your mood drops, because it’s the same track you listened to on the way to visit your nan in hospital.
These reactions aren’t random. They’re your body and nervous system remembering, and reacting, before your conscious mind even has time to catch up.
Release Emotional Triggers with EFT Tapping
The good news? You can change the way your body responds to those triggers.
Through approaches like EFT tapping for emotional healing, you can gently work with your subconscious to release the emotional charge from painful memories.

The memory can remain, but the grip it has on your body and emotions softens.
That yelling in the street no longer sends you into panic.
That song becomes just a song again.
It’s not about forgetting the past, it’s about freeing yourself from being pulled back there every time a trigger appears.
Because if a simple smell can bring you back to a peaceful beach, wouldn’t it be wonderful if the rest of life’s moments could feel that safe too?
