Helander explores how frustration, anxiety, and anger often arise when we “trip” over hidden parts of ourselves. By using mindful techniques rooted in Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal theory, and journaling, she shows how to compassionately recognize these inner parts and shift from pain into clarity. Her practical steps help transform emotional roadblocks into deeper self-understanding and healthier relationships. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://ingridyhelanderlmft.com/are-you-frustrated-anxious-or-angry-listen-inside-you-may-be-tripping/ Quotes to ponder: “It's so important to have the openness and curiosity of another person’s wise eyes and ears when we feel frustrated.” “Get enough perspective to kindly observe this part of you that's saying painful things or has yucky feelings. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART!” “Hearing people's experiences and struggles is truly not tiring for me. In fact, it can be invigorating.” Learn more about your ad choices.
