Two things I read recently that I wanted to share here.

One is from Louise Hay's book, You Can Heal Your Body.

“oversensitivity, often represents fear and shows a need for protection. Fear may be a cover for hidden anger and a resistance to forgive”

Also:

From Christiane Northrup's book, Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom;

"When I first visited an acupuncturist, she told me that in Chinese medicine, emotions such as anger are viewed simply as energy. Many women have a problem with the direct expression of their anger and use it to manipulate others instead. But anger can be a powerful ally. When we feel angry, the anger is always related to something we need to acknowledge for ourselves. It is not necessarily about the situation or person that evoked it. It is always a sign that on some level we're not meeting a personal need that we may have. That's on of the reasons why anger is so often part of PMS.

All women must learn that no one can *make* us angry. Our anger is ours, and it is telling us something we need to know. Eleanor Roosevelt once said, 'No one can make you feel inferior [or angry, or sad] without your permission.' Anger is energy--our personal jet fuel. It is telling us that something needs adjustment in our lives. It is telling us that there is something we want that we don't know we want. Next time you get angry, say to yourself, 'Ah! My inner guidance is working. What is it I want here? What do I want to have happen here?' Anger is often an expression of the energy required to make that adjustment. This emotion is dangerous only if we deny it and stuff it in our bodies. Anger and all other 'negative' emotions can serve us well when we don't turn them in on ourselves as depression or lash out with them against others."
