Anger is one of the most powerful and complex emotions inherent in human beings. It can take over our minds like a hurricane, destroying inner peace and often leading to actions we later regret. Understanding anger is a key step to managing it and transforming it into a positive force. Psychologically, anger is a natural response to a threat or injustice. It arises as a defensive reaction that mobilizes the body to fight or flee. Anger helps set boundaries, protects us from danger, and promotes justice. However, when anger becomes uncontrollable, it can have devastating consequences for both the person and those around them.

On a biological level, anger is associated with activation of the sympathetic nervous system, resulting in the release of adrenaline and noradrenaline. These hormones increase heart rate, raise blood pressure and increase muscle tension, preparing the body for an immediate response. These physiological changes can make us stronger and faster, but they also make it harder to think rationally and exercise self-control.
