Takeaways
Anger is a multifaceted emotion that can be both constructive and destructive. Gender plays a significant role in how anger is perceived and expressed. Healthy relationships require the ability to express anger and resolve conflicts. Modeling healthy conflict resolution for children is crucial in parenting. Anger in the workplace often goes unaddressed, leading to disengagement. Somatic awareness can help individuals identify and process their anger. Anger can serve as a signal for unmet needs and insecurities. Trial and error is essential in learning how to manage anger effectively. Understanding the body’s response to anger can enhance emotional intelligence. Embracing anger as a natural emotion can lead to personal growth and healthier relationships.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
