Express Your Anger! Somatic exercise workshop

Learn to express and regulate your anger with somatic exercises (body psychotherapy method Bioenergetic Analysis by Alexander Lowen). 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 vice versa. 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 access this strong emotion safely, you need to be grounded and aware 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 well-being. 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. What, where?
