There is a moment when anger rises in you and you can feel it taking over. That moment can either run your life or transform it.

Anger, like every emotion, needs expression. It will move through you with or without your consent. When you learn to consciously choose when and how to express your anger, everything shifts. You reclaim clarity. You reclaim dignity. You reclaim choice. As Soraya Chemaly teaches, anger is not the enemy. It is information. It is energy that wants guidance, not suppression.

For most of us, there is trauma held deep in the body that makes some reactions feel much bigger than the moment deserves. That is not weakness. It is unprocessed pain asking to be understood. Get to know the roots of your trauma intimately. Find a skilled guide who can walk beside you so you can learn the language of your body rather than fear it.

Your anger is not a flaw. It is a signal that something in you is ready to heal. Listen to it before it speaks for you.

If this resonates, reach out. Our trauma informed and somatic based anger management programs run every four weeks. Your healing begins with one conversation.

Have you ever noticed that your body reacts to stress as if you are in real danger, even when you are not?
When anger, stress, and anxiety pile up, your nervous system switches into fight or flight. Your brain reroutes blood away from your stomach and digestive system because it believes survival is the priority. That survival response feels ancient because it is ancient.

Your stomach is one of the only places in the body that needs a high level of acidity to stay healthy. The cellular lining of your stomach replaces itself every three to seven days. It needs consistent blood flow to repair itself. When we are stuck at the edge of fight or flight, the stomach does not receive the nourishment it needs, and those cells struggle to regenerate.

Science is very clear on this. Chronic stress keeps the sympathetic nervous system overactivated and places us at a higher risk for digestive issues such as irritable bowel syndrome, acid reflux, gastritis, and other inflammation-based intestinal illnesses. This is not weakness. This is physiology. Your body is trying to keep you alive, but it cannot heal when it never leaves survival mode.

Learning to regulate your stress is not just emotional work. It is biological self-protection. It is anger management. It is trauma recovery. It is choosing to heal your nervous system so your body is not constantly fighting shadows.

And sometimes the solution is beautifully simple. A bicycle ride on a sunny morning. A slow breath before reacting. A moment of grounding. A few minutes of compassion toward yourself. These choices literally shift your brain and your body back into balance.

Your healing begins the moment you stop outrunning your stress and start listening to the wisdom of your body.

Have you ever felt something “off” when someone insisted they were amazing every single time, or showered you with endless compliments that did not feel genuine?

Many of us have been around people who act like everything is perfect. Some of us have even done it ourselves. It is human to hide uncomfortable emotions, because facing them can feel overwhelming.

When we bring these hidden feelings out of the dark and into the open, we begin to understand what is actually happening inside us. Grief, loss, sadness, shame, and even anger can sit quietly underneath that overly cheerful exterior. These emotions are not failures. They are signals from the body asking for honesty, tenderness, and healing.

When we allow our real emotions to breathe, the pressure to pretend fades. We stop performing and begin relaxing into who we truly are. Authenticity becomes possible when we are no longer forcing ourselves to be someone we are not.

If you are ready to understand your emotional world with more honesty, compassion, and courage, visit www.angerman.online and explore our videos, groups, and resources. Healing begins with telling the truth about how we feel.

Your real self deserves space to breathe.

Have you ever put someone on a pedestal and quietly placed yourself beneath them without even noticing?
When we do this in relationships, it usually comes from old shame, childhood wounds, or the unresolved trauma passed down through generations.

When we see someone else as greater than us, we send a message to our own heart that we are less than. That belief does not come from love. It comes from trauma.

Healing begins when we reclaim our worth. It begins when we choose equality. It begins when we build relationships that rest on self-love, not fear. When we rise into our dignity, we stop needing pedestals and start meeting people eye to eye and heart to heart.

Are you ready to rise into the kind of relationship where you no longer shrink yourself? Start your healing journey today.

There is a light within each one of us that is whole and perfect. It never disappears. It only gets covered by pain, fear, and the protective strategies we learned when we were young. Your body is always trying to return to that light. Neuroscience tells us that the nervous system is designed to move toward regulation and healing when it feels safe. When you create emotional safety through breath, awareness, and connection, your brain shifts out of survival mode and into a state where clarity, compassion, and strength become possible.

Healing is not about becoming someone new. It is about uncovering who you were before the wounds, the conditioning, and the overwhelm. It starts by listening to your body and honouring the signals it has been sending you for years.

If you are ready to reconnect with that inner light and release what has been weighing you down, join us and begin your healing journey at www.angerman.online.

Transformational growth happens when men reconnect with their bodies and face what has been holding them back. On February 21 and 22, 2026, we are offering a powerful two day in person weekend for men at The Stretch Space in Vancouver called Shadow, Boxing and Breath for Men.

If you keep repeating the same patterns in relationships or at work, your body may be holding unprocessed emotions that shape your reactions. Through embodied boxing, Gestalt based shadow work, and deep breathwork, this weekend helps you understand where those patterns began and how to break free with clarity and strength.

Cian Dalton and I, Alistair Moes, will guide a group of ten men through movement, grounded emotional work, and breathwork integration so you can reconnect with your body, release what no longer serves you, and step into confidence and purpose.

This is not just a workshop. It is an experience that helps men reclaim emotional strength, presence, and self trust.

If you are ready to do the work, join us. Space is limited.

Your darkness can become your greatest strength

Most of us never learned how to apologize in a powerful and meaningful way, and it shows up in every relationship we care about.
We lead people into conversations about apology because so few of us ever witnessed our caregivers apologizing. When you grow up without that model, you enter adulthood without one of the most important tools for connection and repair.

Most men tell me they appreciate hearing about what makes an apology truly meaningful. They never learned how to do it when they were young. Many of the people who contact us know they have apologies to make. They also carry the wounds of being mistreated as children. That does not remove responsibility, but it does help them understand how they became the people they are. And sometimes the first apology we need to make is to ourselves.

I often tell them about the apology letters I wrote to myself from my parents. My mom died in 1979 and my dad in 2011. I imagined them freed from their ego and able to take full responsibility for the things they did that were hurtful, neglectful, or frightening. Writing those letters changed me. It helped me forgive. Many people have tried this exercise, even with parents or partners who are still alive but incapable of offering a sincere apology.

Every situation is different, but learning to accept apologies that never come can be healing. It can free your heart in ways that waiting never will.

If you are ready to learn how to repair, reconnect, and grow, visit www.angerman.online and explore our online groups and resources. Healing begins when we tell the truth and take responsibility.

My mom passed some of her pain on to us kids, not because she wanted to, but because she didn’t have the support she needed. Her own mother couldn’t give her what she longed for. That makes me feel deeply fortunate to have received her unconditional love, most of the time, but not always.

From her, I learned how to be kind, compassionate, and open-hearted. I also learned how to shut down, avoid, and disconnect when life felt too hard. She was far from perfect, but aren’t we all? When her love flowed, it was powerful. I can still feel it in my body and in my heart all these years later.

I learned to love through her, and through her father, my grandfather, who was a loving presence in her life before dying too young from his addiction to alcohol.

My mom, Carolyn Granville Sneyd, died 48 years ago today. I think about her often. I write to her sometimes, don’t worry, I don’t send the letters, and I talk with my family and kids about her. She lives on in us through the stories, the laughter, and the lessons of her life.

It feels good to write and speak about her. My heart is full of love, appreciation, and respect for the woman she was, and for all the ways she continues to shape me.

If you’ve lost someone you love, I encourage you to keep talking about them. Write to them. Share their stories. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting. It means remembering with love.

If we don’t listen to our body when it needs, it will find its own way to stop us.

We have to allow our body to relax and truly feel if we are to heal. I’ve gotten sick right after going on holiday before, and I know I’m not alone. When the body finally feels safe to slow down, all the stress we’ve been holding tries to leave at once.

I’ve been through burnout more than once. In 30 years of running Moose Anger Management, I only remember missing one session because I was sick. I used to see that as strength. Now I see it as disconnection. The stress needs to move through us, not get trapped inside.

My last experience of burnout was severe. My testosterone levels dropped into unhealthy territory, and I felt weak, old, and fragile. With the help of a naturopathic doctor and other healers, I slowly rebuilt my strength. I learned that when we push through pain instead of resting, our nervous system never gets the message that we are safe.

Now I attend breathwork sessions and men’s groups regularly. I accept help where I once refused it. Stress is still part of life, but now I move with it instead of against it. Healing happens when we finally allow ourselves to stop fighting our own body.

If you’re ready to understand how stress affects your body and learn healthier ways to release it, visit www.angerman.online and explore our online programs.
