If you hate when you do get angry and try your best to avoid this uncomfortable emotion, today’s practice is for you.Learn how to feel anger and process it in a way that feels safe and doesn’t hurt yourself or anyone else. When you stop avoiding this emotion, you won’t have to be sarcastic in disagreement, if uncomfortable with conflict, to control everything (including of your emotions), to shutdown when you’re upset, to feel resentful when people don’t do what you expect… or to numb difficult emotions.Today somatic practice goes with my free workbook on how to feel your emotions and our episode 227 : Feel it to heal it and is an example of how to move the energy of anger out of your body, so next time you feel angry, you’ll know exactly what to do instead of repressing, numbing or overreacting, and I promise, you’ll be left wide-eyed wondering how you are just learning this now.This somatic practice is part of our premium subscription, to get access to it, become a premium podcast member.When you leave a review for the podcast on iTunes you can have access to the membership for free, including today’s class as a thank you for helping others to find the podcast and on their healing journey.
