17. How to Work Through Anger Without Shutting Down or Exploding

The InnerView with Mitra & Ben

Are you someone who has difficulty accessing or expressing your anger? It’s likely your anger is repressed.

Many of us have been taught to either suppress our anger or express it explosively—but what if there's a healthier way to channel it? What if anger isn’t something to fear or avoid, but rather a gateway to understanding ourselves more deeply? In this episode, we help you to identify when repressed anger is present, teach you healthy ways you can channel it, and then reframe your relationship with anger as an opportunity for self-growth.

What You’ll Learn:

• The signs that indicate repressed anger is present within you
• Healthy ways to channel your anger
• Harnessing your anger as an opportunity for growth and cultivating self-compassion

If you’re someone who ….

• Never gets angry, but doesn’t feel free, or
• Has a tendency for passive aggressiveness, or
• Is curious about reconnecting with your inner child

…then you’ll want to be sure to listen in on this episode. Enjoy!
