The article discusses the complexities of anger, emphasizing that many individuals believe they rarely feel anger, when in reality, they may be suppressing it. Sam Parker, an author and senior editor, highlights this issue in his book, "Good Anger: How Rethinking Rage can Change Our Lives," aimed particularly at conflict-avoiders. Through his own experiences, including boxing, Parker realizes that recognizing and expressing anger can be transformative and liberating, challenging the misconception that anger is solely negative.
When people say: I never get angry, what they really mean is they just contain it really well and often at their own expense, says Sam Parker.
Parker learned that boxing helped him channel his emotions, leading to an unexpected outpour of anger that made him realize the importance of acknowledging feelings.
