The Trigger Map

Origin Tracing Tool // Module 7A

Your "oversized" reaction today is rarely about today. It is an echo from the past. Use this map to trace the detonator wire back to the bomb.

Location 01: The Surface
What Just happened? (The Trigger)

Describe the event that set you off. Keep it factual.

Location 02: The Reaction
What Happened in Your Body?

Heat? Tightness? Numbness? Describe the physical sensation, not the emotion.

Location 03: The Narrative
What Did You Tell Yourself It Meant?

"They don't respect me." "I am unsafe." "I'm going to be abandoned."

Location 04: The Origin Audit
When is the FIRST Time You Felt This Exact Sensation?

Close your eyes. Scan backward through your timeline. Find the earliest memory that matches this physical feeling.

The Insight: Your reaction today belongs to that younger version of you. The person in front of you today did not cause the original wound; they just touched the bruise.
