Reprogramming Your Emotional Hot Buttons

With the Appropriate Response Training 

 By Ron Brill

Most people are aware that certain interactions with people seem to emotionally set them on edge. For those who say "What's wrong with me that I get so upset when...?", the Jennings empower us to see behind upsetting interactions and make self-discoveries leading to inner peace. The seminar is designed to help individuals see how these upsets are linked to emotional hot buttons - mostly programmed from childhood. Their in-depth training teaches us how to reprogram and defuse these buttons so they do not ignite our automatic distress mechanism.

Since 1993, the Vancouver couple has been helping individuals and couples take responsibility for their emotional responses with their powerful program. The Jennings' gentle but effective process takes us on a self-discovery journey into our core negative beliefs (CNB's) about ourselves, which are accessed through emotional hot buttons. "Others may trigger our feelings," say the Jennings, "but each of us are responsible for them and only we can change our responses."

As long we are ignorant about these buttons, which others can use to set off our emotional reactions, we are powerless pawns of our "out of control panel". Once we learn to unlock our unique personal code that allows the buttons to access our CNB's, we have the choice to defuse this emotional chain reaction. Couples who share insights about their hot buttons build greater intimacy and respect. For anyone who sometimes reacts inappropriately under distress, the seminar gives us the awareness to make life-changing responses.

The seminar helps us to see precisely how our feelings get hurt. Our CNB's may never change, but our feelings about these core "defects" can be reprogrammed so we do not act defensively. "With control buttons wired directly into our core negative self-beliefs, we are vulnerable to intentional or unintentional assaults," say the couple. When people act defensively, they are protecting themselves from the pain and fear associated with their CNB's.

When we do not get what we want from others we may be asking others to salve or heal inner wounds of Core Negative Beliefs we have about ourselves. When we need someone to say or do something to make us feel better, our demands often go unmet. During the seminar we learn how to take responsibility for our feelings, and how to identify "demands" we make from others which are needs only we can fulfill. "We get our needs met within, not outside of ourselves," the Jennings teach.

It is like learning a new language when we comprehend the operation of emotional hot buttons and how they trigger core negative beliefs about ourselves. The Jennings help us to learn and use this language as a powerful tool to reprogram our emotional buttons. This innovative presentation about the language of emotions helps us see what causes our defensiveness, and enables us to change these disturbing patterns.
