JOIN THE 21-DAY BREATHWORK CHALLENGE STARTING ON MONDAY!
Whether you never express the emotion of anger or you are angry all the time, this is a powerful emotion that is sending you a signal as to what your needs are.
This is the final episode of this season. Carla is chatting about the very misunderstood power of anger and explains how breathwork helps us process it instead of suppressing it.
She uses real examples from clients to look at the different ways people respond to anger and why those responses matter for our health and our relationships.
You will learn how childhood experiences and gender norms shape the way we express or repress anger, and why acknowledging anger is essential for setting boundaries, identifying needs, and preventing long-term emotional and physical consequences.
This is the final episode of this season, so please reach out and share your thoughts with Carla on whether you would like another season and the topics to discuss.
