This week on Heal Thy Self, Dr. Christian Gonzalez unravels the highly impactful effects of unresolved anger. Tune in as he breaks down both the emotional and physiological consequences - from gut issues and inflammation to boundary conflicts and self-sabotage.
Discover why modern medicine overlooks anger's connection to chronic symptoms and conditions. Dr. G then outlines his 4-part framework to finally process repressed rage in a healthy, productive way.
You'll explore what real anger is and how it differs from aggression. Learn why this sacred emotion carries the gift of integrity when harnessed mindfully. Identify where disproportionate people-pleasing, jaw tightness, high blood pressure and more originate.
Through somatic awareness and self-inquiry prompts, Dr. G empowers you with tools to detect and vocalize brewing upset earlier on before it eats you alive internally. Shift the generational trauma around anger's taboo nature passed down from our upbringing once and for all.
Embrace the power of anger to course correct self-harming situations and remove unnecessary burdens. Allow it to ignite overdue conviction around your boundaries and truth. Walk away with Dr. G's 4-step plan to complete the cycle of constructive anger for good.
