Lesson Overview

17.21 – When Classrooms Trigger You: Sometimes smells, noises, or layouts in classrooms can remind you of painful memories. Recognizing those triggers helps you separate past danger from current safety. Map your physical and emotional reactions to pinpoint patterns. Ask teachers for small adjustments—different seating, headphones, or visual breaks. Combine these with grounding exercises like tapping or breathing to retrain your body’s responses. Over time, exposure paired with control reduces reactivity. Triggers lose power when you understand them scientifically rather than fear them emotionally. The goal isn’t to erase memories but to create new, safer ones inside familiar spaces. Your awareness becomes your superpower for reclaiming focus.
