I can relate. I struggle to be aware of myself physically, so as I work to pay attention to what's happening to my body, I become aware of myself in other ways too. So maybe some of that is happening with you, in that as you've listened and paid attention to your body, maybe you are also growing in awareness of your internal self, and that's going to stir things up with those around you too.
You had a pretty big event on your trip, when you talked to your mom. I don't know how much that played into things coming apart at home, but my therapist has pointed out to me that whenever I've made huge leaps in one area, I have a come apart shortly after. It's not a blaming thing or a bad thing, just part of the spiraling nature of therapy or personal growth.
