Anger Alchemy

Let it rip.

Simmering just under the surface, a white-hot molten rage.

It makes you tired. It makes you depressed. Irritable. Frustrated. Anti social. Self-hating, even.

Anger is power.

It is the fuel that your body uses to defend itself, to protect its resources, to fight off competition, and to hunt.

Anger signals, “Something here is not right, something precious is under threat and I must fight for it.”

Anger is meant to drive us into action, and it subsides when it has been expelled and balance has been restored.

When we don’t acknowledge anger or give it healthy outlets to express or confront the source of it, we sit on top of boiling lava, burning ourselves and anyone who dares to step on our triggers.

You have countless reasons to be angry.

The destruction of our ecosystems. Wars and state violence you never consented to. Economies built on greed and exploitation. The all encompassing harm of supremacy culture. Familial cycles of abuse and trauma. Sticky webs of manipulation, coercion, and codependency in our relationship models.

These things SHOULD make you angry. Your rage is sacred. It is your spirit screaming NO!

When alchemized and properly aimed, this rage becomes the courage and power to stand up for your values. To talk back. To declare your sovereignty. To demand change, in your intimate relationships and in our collective ecosystem.

When undigested, anger eats us alive from inside, dragging us down into powerlessness and despondency.

In the 8 week journey through Anger Alchemy, we will create a sacred container for our rage, untangle it, name it, aim it, and learn how to wield it with confidence and dignity.

If we are alive in a world on fire, it is time that we learn how to dance in the flames.
