Express Your Anger! Somatic exercise workshop

Anger is a difficult emotion for many of us. We may feel like it’s getting out of control or be afraid to show it in any way.

Anger is associated with aggression, screaming and hurting others. Those who get mad are described as unpredictable and unfriendly.

The truth is that we need a healthy expression of anger! When we let off some steam, we release tension, reduce stress and gain precious life energy.

Bioenergetic analysis and exercises according to Alexander Lowen give us the tools to understand and work with our anger.

WHAT TO EXPECT?

• Understand

You will take a look at your attitude towards anger today. We will discuss the different shades of anger. Often this emotion covers something else, like sadness or shame, or the other way around. You'll understand why a healthy expression of anger is OK and beneficial for you and others.

• Exercise

In a small group and safe space we'll learn the basic somatic exercises for working with anger. To be able to access this strong emotion safely, you need to be grounded and conscious of your body. Through expressive practices you'll get in touch with your own anger.

• Regulate

One of the main goals of bioenergetic exercises is to regulate emotions and improve wellbeing. Thanks to regular practice of expressing anger and irritation, you'll be able to manage stress, improve sleep quality, confidence and even your libido! This embodied work can help you become more assertive at work and in your relationships.
