Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach

#340 Holding Space for Anger After Breast Cancer


Listen Later

In this podcast episode, we delve into the essential role of acknowledging and expressing anger, and the broader spectrum of our emotions, in maintaining mental and physical health.

Anger is a natural and healthy emotion when approached constructively. By allowing ourselves to feel and express anger, we open the door to understanding our needs and setting necessary boundaries. This process is critical for personal growth and relationships.

You'll hear some expert insights explaining how repressing emotions, particularly anger, can lead to adverse effects.

Suppressing these feelings doesn't eliminate them; instead, they can surface as physical symptoms or illness. Chronic stress, linked to unexpressed anger, can manifest as headaches, high blood pressure, and even more severe health issues.

Psychologically, it can lead to anxiety, depression, and a diminished sense of self-worth.

The key takeaway is that embracing and expressing all our emotions, including anger, is not only liberally empowering but also essential for our overall well-being.
