Anger is often seen as a natural response to frustration, injustice, or feeling wronged. But at its core, anger is a survival mechanism. It’s an aggressive reaction designed to scare the other party, making them back off or submit. Behind every angry outburst, there's usually a deeper fear—insecurity. This fear often stems from past experiences where you weren’t protected or defended when you needed it most. Someone failed you, and you learned that to protect yourself, you needed to be aggressive.

But here’s the catch: anger is never the solution. The true cause lies in the insecurity—the unresolved feelings from the past that make you react defensively today. Think about it: when you’re secure in yourself and your surroundings, you don’t need to get angry. You don’t need to scare others into submission. Instead, you can approach situations calmly and with clarity.

The key to overcoming anger is to address the underlying insecurity. It's about reframing what makes you feel safe and secure. True security comes from within—from learning to let go of past wounds, trusting yourself, and trusting that you are enough. When you start letting go of the past, you break free from the cycle of anger.

In the context of wellness, this is vital. Anger affects your mental and physical health. It creates stress, tension, and chaos in your body. By addressing the root cause of anger—insecurity—and finding real security within, you can heal your mind and body, cultivating peace, balance, and overall wellness.
