Arguments arenât just about the moment â theyâre often rooted in old wounds, fear, and the nervous system going into fight-or-flight. In todayâs episode, we explore how conflict is deeply connected to our inner child and why compassion is the most powerful tool we have during tough conversations.Whether itâs with a partner, friend, family member, or even yourself, learning to slow down and respond instead of react can completely change the outcome. We talk about:⨠Why conflict triggers the nervous system⨠How your inner child shows up during arguments⨠What it means to argue from a place of hurt⨠How to offer compassion â to yourself and the other person⨠Tools for regulating your emotions in the moment⨠How to communicate without shutting down or exploding⨠Rebuilding connection after conflictThis episode is a gentle reminder that youâre not âbadâ for reacting â youâre human. And with awareness, compassion, and a little emotional regulation, conflict can become an opportunity for healing instead of harm.If this resonates, donât forget to like, subscribe, and share with someone who needs this kind of peace today đ¤#mentalhealthandwellness #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #conflictresolution #howto
