Episode 11: What to do With Anger
Manage episode 436292033 series 3567048
This weeks episode is about Anger. It was inspired by a session I had with a client who had really been resisting feeling angry, which was something I could very much relate to. I have always HATED feeling angry and have spent a lot of energy trying to NOT be angry.
Anger can be a really strong and sometimes scary emotion. And sometimes anger can drive people to doing or say thigs they regret (when they can no longer tolerate the feeling) or to just totally shutting down and feeling stuck (when they are trying to avoid or push down the feeling).
Allowing yourself to feel anger AND learning how to tolerate that feeling without being driven by it, is only part of the equation. Because anger can feel like energy building in your body and that energy needs some kind of release.
So today I'll be discussing what I've learned about why it's so important to not only acknowledge anger and allow yourself to feel it, but also how to recognize when it's time to release some of that energy as well as some different ways of doing so.
