How often do we clench our jaws to avoid opening our mouths and letting truth come out?

How often do we bite our own tongue to avoid biting through the lies and harm around us?

How often do we swallow the acid of our bile, our words, to avoid causing someone else pain?

How much pain do we cause ourselves by repressing our anger and turning the fight in toward our bodies?

I'm not saying that screaming, biting, projecting or spewing out our anger is how we want to handle this emotion. But our bodies might have those impulses, and working against those impulses takes a lot of energy.

What if we could work with the impulses in a way that feels skillful and aligned? What if we could not just 'manage' our anger but actually leverage it with sustainable skill?

Anger has wisdom, there is medicine in it - it tells us what needs to change. When we bring awareness to that with presence and compassion, this is a powerful force. I believe we need folks to come into healthy relationship with anger right now. We need people who can say No, this is not ok. We need people who can stay with anger long enough to get clear on right action, to show up with love, & to do what their souls are asking them to do.

Have you ever really heard your own voice? Have you heard from the inside that something needed to be expressed, & then heard the power of it outside of you?

In this photo, my body told me it wanted to be witnessed in a scream. To hear myself & to be heard. No one made me do this. It wasn't for a staged experience that someone else guided. And it wasn't even about catharsis & trying to 'get my anger out'. This was about embodied, wild power.

Screaming can be a lot. It isn't something I typically recommend through somatic trauma healing, especially not in the beginning. You don't have to force this. It's not necessary for 'release' in the way you might think.

What's really powerful is going slow, staying with your body, & hearing your own knowing. The real relief and transformation come when you feel all the resistance in your body, give love to the protective patterns, & let it feel safe enough to follow your own voice.

There is nothing wrong with you because you feel angry. You are not wrong or bad for having a body that has instincts to fight, yell, push, kick, scream, bite, punch. It is not a problem that you have survival instincts that want to protect you.

I know this can feel scary. I know that you don't want to be 'an angry person'. I know that you don't want to cause harm or violence. I know it is intelligent and protective to repress anger and these instincts. And...

Our body has a story it wants to share. It has impulses that want to complete. It has energy that it wants you to acknowledge, witness, feel, process, move.

The impulses of fight and anger are real and valid and human. When a boundary is crossed, when you feel disrespected, when there is injustice - anger is the valid response that alerts us to pay attention. It shows us that something we care about is being challenged, and we might want to take action. As humans, we all experience moments of anger. If you don't register anger, if you think this isn't part of 'who you are', it might be a sign of repression, avoidance, denial, numbing or dissociation. Anger is part of life and the range of human experience, and it isn't going to be avoided forever.

What if you could work with your body and the wisdom and power of anger in a skillful and sustainable way? What if you didn't have to work so hard to hold it in? What if anger doesn't mean violence? What if your body wasn't holding in the fight and turning it in on yourself? What if you could experience more freedom, less tension, more aliveness and play, less anxiety or depression, more power and alignment?

Can you feel what might be possible there?

Women and NBs, I invite you to join us starting September 14 for a Somatics of Anger series at .

This is for you if you consider yourself to 'not be an angry person'. This is for you if you only acknowledge anger when it is at a max level and explodes out. This is for you if you repress anger to keep the peace or be liked. This is for you if you are ready to remember your voice, power, energy, boundaries, and embody living more of your truth.

Women offer so much to others. In many ways this is from our heart, from our genuine connection to care and service and love. And in some ways, this comes from how we are conditioned. We are told and taught to be caretakers. People pleasing becomes a survival mechanism. Along with it comes emotional repression. There can be a way where we don't feel safe having our own feelings and needs, we haven't been held and allowed to express our humanness, we feel like there isn't space for our own experiences with what we are being asked to manage outside of us.

We invite you to explore offering yourself sanctuary. Becoming a safe space for your own emotions. And not doing it alone.

Grief, pleasure, anger and joy are part of the human experience. These emotions are going to arise throughout life. If we can learn to skillfully allow them, let them move through us, it frees up life force energy. Processing emotions, letting them come and go, helps us to really harness their wisdom and power. Our emotions teach us about ourselves and our relationships and our way of being.

Together, we will do this in a trauma-informed and somatic way. Really learning and practicing sustainable skills for reconnecting with our body and emotions.

You and your feelings are not too much. The darkness, the light - it is all welcome here. It is all celebrated. Gently and softly held, witnessed, and supported.

We meet Tuesday evenings at Holos House in Cincinnati. In between sessions you will have access to ongoing support for integration of this work.

Can you feel how this might impact your life? How this might be the medicine your body, heart, mind, and soul have been seeking?

We invite you to join us. Comment or DM 'Sanctuary' to sign up.

Payment plan and scholarship options available.

We also understand the flow of life - if you have to miss a week, we will share content and be here for you to receive the experience you are meant to have.

With love,
Meagan & Stacey

This weekend I had many experiences that spiraled the theme of Voice. I feel really grateful for the ways somatic work has reconnected me with my voice. My inner knowing. The wisdom that arises from life. The clear, loving voice of my heart. I hear the messages from inside with more ease and frequency than I ever have, and I am curious for how it may evolve.

Through the weekend, a poem emerged...

I invite you to
name your fears that hide in the silence
get clear about what you avoid so
you can touch it with light.
Would we need catharsis if
we spoke our truth
moment to moment?
What is more freeing than
being a living, embodied prayer...

Let it make sense in colors, shapes,
movements, & sounds.
Let it make sense with impulse and feeling.
Let it make sense through your senses.

S l o w D o w n
there is space for you
No rush, no limits
You are not too much
You are not in a box
Breathe
in & out
We want to hear your truth
Take your time
let it emerge
It will be powerful - we can handle it
It will be tender - we can hold you
It will be yours - we can hear you
It will be a gift - we thank you
Only you can share this
Yes, fears
Yes, human ego
Yes, divinity
Yes, love
Sit, feel, be with it all
& let the magical mystery of your heart be spoken

The evolution of this class has been such a gift, I am humbled and grateful to facilitate these sessions. Being in space with folks who are curious, brave hopeful and compassionate, saying yes to more than just a yoga class. Every class is different based on who is in the room, what we are feeling, what we need, what we bring. It is somatics in practice in so many ways. It is tender and strong.

Thank you to all of the spaces who host and hold us, thank you to the folks who have said yes to a class so far, thank you to my teachers.

Please reach out if you have any questions about this for you and your body.

Would love to see you soon if it feels aligned! Join us at Kindred Flow Yoga, Holos House 501c3 / Holistic Therapy and Healing LLC, The Shine Free Wellness Center, The Center for Healing and Integration πŸ’–
