In the follow-up to our deep dive on anger, we’re taking a scientific turn to explore the neurochemistry behind this fiery emotion. What happens in your brain when you feel triggered? Why does anger sometimes feel uncontrollable, and what can we do about it? In this episode of SHIFT Talking, Davina Hehn unpacks the fascinating interplay between brain regions, hormones, and neurotransmitters that shape your experience of anger.

Here’s what we’re covering in this mind-expanding episode:

• Anger on the Brain: A breakdown of the amygdala, prefrontal cortex, and their roles in managing emotional responses.
• The Stress-Hormone Connection: How cortisol and adrenaline fuel your fight-or-flight reaction during moments of anger.
• Why Anger Feels So Powerful: The evolutionary purpose of anger and its impact on decision-making.
• Regaining Control: Practical strategies to regulate your brain’s response to anger without suppressing your emotions.
• The SHIFT Framework in Action: Applying neuroscience to shift from reaction to constructive expression.

Whether you’re curious about the science of emotions or looking for tools to better understand your own brain, this episode provides a fresh perspective on how to work with your anger instead of fighting against it.
