Have you ever felt disproportionately irritated by something small—like a repeated noise, a coworker’s tone, or the way someone leaves their dishes in the sink? That subtle but persistent annoyance might actually be something deeper than it appears on the surface. It could be the result of a trapped emotion—specifically, the emotion of Peeved.
In The Emotion Code by Dr. Bradley Nelson, Peeved is defined as an emotion of being irritated, exasperated, or annoyed—often in response to someone else’s behavior. When this emotion becomes trapped in the body, it can color our reactions, create unnecessary tension, and even manifest as physical discomfort.
At Planet of Peace Energy Healing, I’ve seen firsthand how releasing this trapped emotion can create unexpected lightness and ease in people’s lives.
Client Case: Lisa’s Story – “It Was Just Getting Under My Skin”
Lisa*, a busy mom of three and part-time graphic designer, came to me describing an overwhelming sense of irritation she couldn’t shake. “It’s like everything is just getting under my skin,” she said during our first session. “I don’t want to be snappy with my kids or cold with my partner, but I feel like I’m at my breaking point over the tiniest things.”
Using The Emotion Code, we muscle tested and identified a trapped emotion of Peeved that had originated during a group project in high school, when Lisa felt unheard and overlooked by her teammates. That small but impactful moment had been trapped in her energy field for over a decade.
What’s more, the emotion was lodged in her solar plexus area—a common energy center associated with identity, personal power, and boundary-setting.
Once we energetically released the trapped emotion of Peeved, Lisa described feeling like “a sigh had rippled through her whole body.” Over the following days, she reported a noticeable shift: more patience with her kids, less internal frustration, and a greater ability to laugh things off. “It’s not that things stopped being mildly annoying,” she shared, “but I stopped carrying the irritation with me. I felt free.”
What Can You Learn from Peeved?
When the emotion of Peeved gets trapped in your system, it may show up as:
- Heightened sensitivity to tone or criticism
- Repetitive frustration in relationships
- A short temper that feels out of character
- Digestive tension or upper abdominal tightness
- Feeling “on edge” for no clear reason
The beauty of energy healing is that we don’t have to live under the weight of old emotional baggage. By bringing compassionate attention to these trapped patterns, we can gently release them—and make room for greater peace, patience, and presence.
If you feel like you’re reacting more strongly than you’d like, or carrying an undercurrent of irritation you can’t quite explain, it might be time to explore whether the trapped emotion of Peeved is ready to be released.
