Trigger Free Holidays: A Therapist’s Guide to Mindful Gatherings

The holiday season is filled with love, joy, and fun-filled gatherings—but it can also bring unwanted experiences or tough discussions. Holidays can trigger intense emotions, and knowing how to respond appropriately instead of reacting intensely is key to having mindful gatherings and growing relationships. This episode explores topics that may cause triggers, ways to work through conflict, and the importance of using connection as a tool to foster better relationships. By understanding these things, we can be mindful of situations and react accordingly. Join Vanessa De Jesus Guzman in a discussion about how to enjoy trigger-free holidays, understand expectations, and work through what you can let go. Send us Fan MailSupport the showNJ RESIDENTS, WORK WITH VANESSA Book a free 15-minute therapy consultation https://www.freetobemindful.com/contact LET’S STAY CONNECTED 🎧 Podcast: https://www.freetobemindful.com/podcast 🎁 Free Resource — 120 Coping Skills: https://www.freetobemindful.com/podcast-120copingskills 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/counselorvdejesus/ 💛 Private Coaching for the Mom CEO: https://www.amigamoms.com 🎤 Speaking & Workshops: https://www.freetobemindful.com/speaking 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/counselorvdejesus/DISCLAIMER:Free to Be Mindful Podcast episodes are for educational purposes only and should not be considered as or substituted for therapy or professional help from a licensed clinician.
