Discover all of the podcasts in our network, search for specific episodes, get the Optimal Living Daily workbook, and learn more at: OLDPodcast.com.
Episode 3601:
Kristine Klussman explores how anger often masks deeper emotional pain and disconnection from the self, and how practicing self-compassion can dissolve that anger to reveal healing insights. By recognizing anger as a surface-level defense, we gain access to the more vulnerable truths beneath and ultimately foster deeper emotional clarity and inner peace.

Quotes to ponder:
"Anger is a defensive emotion, used to inflate our egos, make us feel powerful, and defend against the more vulnerable, tender feelings underneath."
"Usually, once you reconnect and regain closeness with yourself, you also experience nearly instantaneous relief from the pain of the anger."
"To practice self-compassion, we must humble ourselves enough to admit that underneath all our powerful arguments against the thing that’s enraged us, we are actually deeply disappointed, sad, heartbroken, grieving, terrified, or in some other vulnerable state."
