Getting Out Of The Way with Daniel Reznik | A Psychedelic Integration Podcast In the video "Trigger Warning," Daniel discusses how people tend to displace their inner repression of self to the external world as a mechanism to see themselves with greater clarity. What happens when we trigger an empty pistol? Nothing, because it is empty. What happens when we trigger a loaded pistol? It fires and does damage. The issue is not the trigger, the issue is the loaded gun. If we remove the ammunition then triggering the pistol is of no consequence. This is a parallel to our day-to-day life. He presents an idea where instead of looking inward to deal with our emotions we tend to accumulate them. In-turn, these repressed emotions and traumas are under pressure (turned into ammunition). Then, when we are inevitably triggered by almost anything in the external world, we fire and cause damage within ourselves and externally. He argues that being triggered may be a healthy occurrence because it helps to show us where the true problem lies — within ourselves — allowing us to unload our ‘stuff’ in a healthier and preemptive way. He also shares that being preoccupied with external factors hinders us from being our authentic selves because we are forced to manage our thoughts, words, and actions for fear of offending someone when we really have little control over how the external world behaves in most circumstances. Daniel feels that using words with proper intention and being accountable for one's own words can create clarity and avoid spreading negative vibes. He stresses the importance of using our words with proper intention, passing them through the three gates of speech: is it true, is it necessary, is it kind? By doing so, individuals can limit creating more confusion in the world and foster clarity and positivity in life for ourselves and others. _______________________For booking inquiries email: Tag@DanielReznik.comSubscribe Here: https://www.youtube.com/@GettingOutOfTheWay______________________Listen to the Getting Out Of The Way Podcast On:Apple Podcast https://apple.co/3ZtjTSaSpotify http://bit.ly/3wxhwkR______________________Follow us on Social Media:Instagram http://bit.ly/3ZQr8VtFacebook http://bit.ly/3y7isNA--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gettingoutoftheway/support
