Essential oils to calm anger are good to keep on hand. Unexpressed anger can result in chronic symptoms and conditions. Tiredness, apathy, concentration issues, back and shoulder aches and pains, intestinal problems, rashes and other skin problems, and more. It’s also a lead cause of dangerously high blood pressure and a rise in the likelihood of a stroke. Anger is an important aspect of our psychological well-being, yet it’s often socially wrong to express or let go of anger.
The trick is to keep balanced. There’s nothing wrong with the emotion of anger, but having so much that it’s constantly getting you into trouble is a bad thing and often happens when it gets bottled up.
There are three categories for essential oils to help aid with anger issues: calming down anger, coping with anger, and releasing anger.

Essential oils are a safe, effective way of learning to cope with your anger. Some great essential oils that help cope with anger are:
