emotion. It can also be a feeling that
guides us to important decisions,
sometimes decisions difficult to make.

We deny our anger for a variety of
reasons. We don't give ourselves
permission to allow it to come into our
awareness – at first. Understand that it
does not go away; it sits in layers under
the surface, waiting for us to become

What we may do instead of facing our
anger and what it is telling us about
anger and what it is telling us about
self-care, is feel hurt, victimized,
trapped, guilty, and uncertain about
how to take care of ourselves. We may
withdraw, deny, make excuses, and
hide our heads in the sand – for a
