Beyond Anger provides guidance for honoring one's heart when feeling angry. It advises to look deeper at the root cause of anger, which is often hurt, and to speak from the heart about the experience of hurt without blaming others. While anger is normal, acting it out only invites more conflict and hurt. To be heard, one should speak the truth about the underlying hurt rather than venting anger.
