If you are angry all the time, stop suppressing it.

Suppressed rage doesn't disappear. It becomes depression, anxiety, and chronic illness.

Rage is trapped energy that needs to MOVE.

Here's how to release it safely: 🧵

I've worked with hundreds of clients who were told their anger was "toxic."

Meanwhile, they developed fibromyalgia, autoimmune conditions, and chronic fatigue.

Their bodies were literally attacking themselves because their rage had nowhere to go.

The truth is, anger is pure life force energy that gets stuck in your nervous system when suppressed.

This creates physical tension, inflammation, and emotional numbness.

Your body can only store so much before it signals overload through illness.

The suppression sickness is real:

• Depression = anger turned inward
• Anxiety = fear of your own power
• Autoimmune disease = body attacking itself

Gabor Maté calls it "anger attacks the self."

Your immune system mirrors your emotional patterns.

After years of swallowing anger, your nervous system has no space to feel it.

You've shrunk your "window of tolerance" so much that intense emotions become overwhelming.

Embodiment practices gradually expand this capacity without flooding your system.

The tolerance-building process works through titration:

Feel a small dose of anger in safety → return to calm → repeat.

Each time your brain experiences anger without catastrophe, your nervous system's tolerance increases.

Peter Levine calls this "pendulation", the rhythm of activation and rest.

→ Somatic rage release techniques that actually work:

• Punch pillows while screaming into them
• Shake and tremble to discharge tension
• Yell into towels

Physical discharge moves the "fight-or-flight" energy that's been locked inside.

Other super-effective methods ↓

→ Breath of Fire (rapid diaphragmatic breathing) mobilizes stuck emotional energy.

Do this for 2-3 minutes followed by gentle breathing.

It literally burns up inner anger in a controlled way, often releasing heat, tingling, and relief.

→ In this video, Dr. Gabor Maté discusses his approach to releasing anger and explains the "RAIN" method.

Watch until the end to learn how to apply it ↓

→ Neuroplasticity means you can rewire your anger response.

Each time you safely feel and express anger, you're creating new neural pathways.

Your brain learns "anger can be safe and useful" instead of "anger is dangerous."

This literally reshapes your brain-body connection.

→ Growling, roaring, deep guttural cries unlock throat chakra blocks where anger gets trapped.

Try Lion's Breath: open mouth wide, stick out tongue, exhale with loud "HAAA!" sound.

Many trauma survivors can't yell when angry. This breaks that pattern.

→ Movement medicine for anger

• Martial arts provide structured aggression outlet
• Aggressive dancing to loud music
• Shaking, stomping, thrashing

Movement completes the action your body wanted to take. You move through and past the anger.

Integration phase is where anger becomes fuel.

Raw anger energy transforms into healthier boundaries, creative drive, protective instincts, etc.

Healthy anger is proportional, protective, and dissipates once its job is done. It becomes your guardian, not your destroyer.

You want to restore anger to its healthy role where you control anger as a tool.

Somatic therapy is your best friend here.
