Not a flaw, but a source of motivation and courage.
The social image and its consequences
Showing anger is frowned upon in society. People who are angry are quickly labeled as uncontrolled or hysterical. Women in particular are rarely allowed to show anger. They are labeled as shrews, irrational, or overly emotional. Men are often considered aggressive and dangerous when they are angry. But anger is not the problem; it is how we deal with it that is: Out of fear of rejection, of losing love, of being accused of being “too much,” we don't show our anger. We have learned to please, to conform, to swallow it down. But suppressed anger does not disappear; it only transforms into sadness, resignation, or even self-hatred. Thus, it continues to have an effect, subliminally and wearisomely.
The power of holy anger

Anger is not ugly, but extremely powerful, honest, and even sacred. It shows us that something is wrong, that a line has been crossed, that we feel we have been treated unfairly, or that there is a problem that can no longer be ignored. Anger is therefore a valuable inner compass, because it draws our attention to injustices in our lives, in society, and in our relationships.
The courage to be angry
Anger mobilizes large amounts of energy and is often the beginning of change, because it challenges us to take a closer look and no longer remain silent. Angry people change the world. Not because they shout, rage, or fight, but because they dare to speak their truth, because they set boundaries, and because they no longer make themselves small. It does little good to yell at everyone, but rather to look inside yourself and recognize: I am angry, and that's okay. This anger deserves space; it is allowed to be there. It is not a flaw, but a sign of self-worth.
Using anger productively
When we allow ourselves to feel anger, we begin to stand up for ourselves. We no longer let people walk all over us and we distance ourselves from people who are not good for us. We stop apologizing for our feelings and instead begin to transform our anger into courage: the courage to be clear, to remain true to ourselves, and to free ourselves from old patterns.
It's not about losing control. It's about regaining control over what is alive within us. If you cry or get angry, allow yourself to do so. Give it space. Your anger doesn't want to destroy, it wants to be heard. If you stop fighting it and listen to it instead, you can transform it. Into strength, clarity, and courage. Because anger as courage is good for you.
How you can let off steam in a safe environment
Breathwork is a powerful tool for accessing your own anger and feeling, expressing, and ultimately transforming it in a safe, supported environment: Through breathwork, you observe your emotions without having to act on them or suppress them immediately. You feel: “I am not my anger, but I am allowed to feel it.” This gives you a new relationship with this energy. Instead of reacting impulsively or repressing it, you learn to hold it. This brings inner freedom and clarity. Breathwork works physically and bypasses the mind. You don't have to explain or justify anything, but give your system the opportunity to release the pent-up energy. Whether through shaking, screaming, trembling, or crying. After the release comes a feeling of relief, inner peace, and clarity. You can feel what you need again. You feel more connected to yourself. The anger that previously crackled inside you is no longer dangerous, but becomes a source of strength.
