Welcome to another episode of Returning: A podcast to return to yourself and the wisdom within. In this episode we delve into the transformative power of anger. How can we use this energy to create rather than destroy?

Today’s Returner question from Hannah is: how can we release rage in a positive, healthy way? It’s such a beautiful and important question. Anger isn’t just a raw, uncontrollable force; it’s often a reflection of what is truly important to us. It holds encoded within it our deepest passions and longings. Society often teaches us to suppress it, yet, when harnessed, anger can hold such potent wisdom. From a raw outburst from my husband to the rage I felt postpartum, I’ve witnessed the deep sacredness of this emotion. This episode uncovers the journey of listening, expressing, and transmuting anger into powerful creations.

“Anger delivers clear information to us and it can be used to create incredible things in the world. If we are to consciously live, then the invitation is to try to understand that information and to embrace that energy and express it consciously.”

- Rebecca Campbell

SOUL INQUIRY

Soul Inquiry is a practice where we enter a direct dialogue with our inner self. 

Today's Soul Inquiry prompt is:

What makes you furious, angry or full of rage? 

How do you feel helpless, hopeless or powerless?
