THE ANGER CODES
Why We Explode, Shut Down, and Sabotage Relationships—and How to Rewire the Mind Using Neuroscience by Breaking Generational Patterns of Karmic Pain, Suppression, and Buried Emotions
About the Book
This is not another book about managing anger.
It is a powerful exploration of why anger exists in the first place—and what it has been trying to protect all along.
Blending cutting-edge neuroscience, trauma psychology, nervous system regulation, emotional healing, attachment theory, generational conditioning, and deeply transformative self-awareness work, this book reveals that anger is rarely the true problem.
Many people spend their entire lives reacting emotionally without understanding why. They explode. Shut down. Withdraw. Control. People-please. Sabotage relationships. Repeat painful patterns. Suppress emotions until the body begins carrying the burden.
The Anger Codes explains why.
