We launch into a brand new series to reclaim your power by releasing anger and worry. I'm sharing with you a few BONUS episodes that are part of the Sip and Om Meditation app. I hope you enjoy the series as much as I enjoy creating it for you!

Psychologists have found that our anger is often not a direct result of an event, but of the story we tell ourselves about it. Our interpretations, assumptions, and judgments are the fuel that turns a minor spark into a consuming fire.

Daily Challenge: When you find yourself replaying a moment that made you angry, simply label the thought "story." Practice letting go of the narrative and coming back to the present moment.

WELCOME TO THIS WEEK'S SERIES:

THE FIRE WITHIN: MEDITATIONS ON ANGER, POWER, AND PURPOSE

Welcome to "The Fire Within: Meditations on Anger, Power, and Purpose"

In a world that often tells us to "just let go," "The Fire Within" challenges the conventional wisdom about anger. This isn't a series about suppressing or escaping your feelings. Instead, it is a guided journey to sit with your anger, to understand it, and to transform its intense energy from a destructive force into a potent catalyst for growth. Over seven episodes, you will learn to listen to what your anger is truly telling you, to reclaim your power from reactivity, and to forge a path forward with courage and clarity. This is a series for those ready to confront the uncomfortable truth of their emotions and emerge with an unshakable inner strength.

This is day 1 of a 7-day meditation series, "The Fire Within: Meditations on Anger, Power, and Purpose," episodes 3353-3359.
