You’ve Done the Work… So Why Do the Same Triggers Keep Coming Back?

You journal. You meditate. You process your emotions like a pro.

But then—out of nowhere—that trigger you processed a few weeks ago triggers you again.

You sit there saying ‘wtf? I thought I worked through this?”

• Maybe it’s a money trigger that sends your nervous system into a spiral.
• Maybe it’s an old relationship pattern you swore you had healed.
• Maybe it’s that familiar feeling of not being enough creeping back in when you thought you had finally left it behind.

You take a deep breath. “I just worked through this.”

“Why is this happening again?”

So Why Do You Keep Getting Triggered?

Because you’re not releasing the old version of yourself.

So many people are focused on releasing the thought, the belief, etc. but they miss releasing the version of you that lived with that trigger. 

And if you’re not actively releasing old energy, you’ll keep repeating the same cycles—no matter how much journaling, mindset work, or meditation you do.

The Missing Piece in Your Healing Journey

Most people don’t realize that deep healing has two parts:

✔ Processing – Sitting with your emotions, understanding where they come from, and shifting your perspective.
❌ Releasing – Letting go of the past version of yourself that’s still holding onto those emotions. NOT just the belief itself so you can finally stop asking yourself ‘why do I keep getting triggered?‘

Without the releasing step, your subconscious mind keeps carrying old energy blocks which means the same triggers and limiting beliefs keep resurfacing.

Think of it like cleaning out a closet. You can organize, refold, and shift things around all you want. But if you never take anything out, it’s still going to feel cluttered and overwhelming.

How to Actually Release Triggers & Stop Repeating Old Patterns

The next time a trigger comes up, try this:

1️⃣ Pause: Don’t fight the emotions that come up. Feel your way through them. 

2️⃣ Identify the version of you that’s holding onto this – Is it the version of you that…

• Struggled with money?
• Didn’t feel safe in relationships?
• Was stuck in survival mode?
• Get down to the root the best you can – [if you need help with this step, consider booking a 1:1 with me so I can channel it in detail for you!

3️⃣ Wait until you start feeling better (it’s normal for this to take a few days – don’t rush this step!!!!!) then visualize releasing them – Close your eyes and see that past version of yourself. 

Imagine thanking them, letting them know they no longer need to hold onto this, and then watch them step out of your energy field.

An example of how a client instantly shifted her vibration by doing this:

A few weeks ago, I channeled a 9-minute visualization inside The Healed Millionaire to help members fully release their shadows from their reality and vibration. 

One of the women in the group did it—and instantly started seeing 8’s everywhere.

If you know anything about numerology, you know that 8 is the number of wealth and abundance.

By clearing out the past version of herself, she shifted her vibration instantly, and the universe responded.

THIS is how you live a fulfilled live.

THIS is how you manifest wealth and stop asking yourself ‘why do I keep getting triggered?’

THIS is the work I help people do.

If you’re one who refuses to settle for an ordinary life – you’d be a perfect fit for The Healed Millionaire. Check it out and consider joining me and the other healed millionaires inside.
