Does it feel like complaining is helpful? While it can feel productive, Heidi argues that it doesn't lead us to the results we want.
Take aways
*Sometimes we complain because we are trying to make things better. But it doesn't work.
*Even if we get what will satisfy the complaint, we don't feel better.
*Venting is not always a good thing.
*Feel emotion rather than skipping over it or avoiding it.
*Your body is very able to take care of anger if you allow it to.
