Part 1: Understanding Our Activation
Reuben Lowe
ACT/EMDR Therapist & Spiritual Coach
In part 1 of this unit, there is an opening reflection. We explore the metaphor of the volcano to understand emotional surges. These eruptions don’t come out of nowhere — they build over time from unseen pressures. This part of the journey helps us recognise our emotional triggers and develop a more compassionate stance toward them. You’ll begin to see your inner eruptions not as flaws, but as signals — and that staying with yourself through them is a powerful act of self-honouring.
