The Somatics of Anger: A 6-Week Trauma-Informed Series
"Anger has a bad rap, but it is actually one of the most hopeful and forward thinking of all our emotions." —Soraya Chemaly, Rage Becomes Her
Do you feel stuck when it comes to anger? Unsure of how to process it, feeling overwhelmed by it, wanting to avoid or deny it? Maybe it leaks out through passive aggressiveness or you have moments of explosion after holding it in for so long. Maybe you feel like you often need to 'manage' your anger, but it might feel exhausting and confusing. Maybe you have some fears of what might come from you expressing anger.
For those of us socialized as women especially, our relationship with anger can get distorted for many reasons. In this 6-week series, we will holistically explore anger through the lens of somatics—through our bodies, thoughts, patterns, emotion processing, nervous system, and spirit. We will experientially learn ways to support our nervous system in having access to regulation and presence, as well as relationship with our fight response, supporting the capacity and flow of greater life force energy in and through us.
Week 1: Nervous System, Somatics, and Resourcing for Anger Work
Week 2: Identity and Our Patterns of Anger
Week 3: Easing into the Felt-Sense of Anger
Week 4: Expanding Our Experience of Anger
Week 5: Exploring Anger in Relationship & Saying No
Week 6: Play, Aliveness, and Saying Yes
Through a trauma-informed approach, we will move slowly and supportively to encourage sustainable, embodied healing and transformation in your relationship with anger. There will be education and teachings, journal reflection prompts, individual somatic experiences and practices, partnered sharing, group discussion, and weekly handouts with additional exercises and resources.
The intention of this class is to support you in practicing a new way of feeling, processing, and expressing anger and showing up with more clarity and power in your life.
This series will be facilitated by Meagan Connley, Trauma-Informed Integrative Somatic Practitioner, Enneagram Facilitator, Yin Yoga Teacher, and Founder of Presence With Love. You can learn more about her and her work at presencewithlove.com
Open to all women and nonbinary folks. This workshop registration fee operates on a sliding scale. Choose $150 (Reduced), $200 (Standard), or $250 (Supporter) based on your budget.
