One of the greatest things that we can do in any situation is to take a step back from it and instead of begin the subjective experiencer instead stepping back, and becoming the objective observer.

This does not mean you are apathetic or dispassionate. Instead, you have a willingness to let the emotional charge go and let spirit have room in your mind to inform you about what is really happening. To see the situation or person from a higher viewpoint than you were capable of in that moment of trigger.

It is a practice that we have to get used to because we are so deeply conditioned to be subjective and reactive instead of observant and responsive.
