“We need to be able to honor our full range of human experiences, and that means somehow being able to snuggle up to our own anger in an honest way and looking at it and learning from it.” – Terri Cole

Intro

Are you someone who proudly proclaims they never get angry?

Does anger feel unsafe and uncomfortable for you?

Or do you tend to bottle up your anger until you explode, leaving you feeling guilty and wanting to take everything back?

If you’re raising your hand, you’re not alone. I struggled with my own anger for many years.
