The healing power of rabies
posted by Deva Karuno
Anger is a scorned emotion in our culture. If you were taught from an early age to be ashamed, out of anger or expressing it, you may have hidden it deeply. Anger is an emotion that few people want to possess. The fear of being rejected and excluded for honestly taking on anger is enormous. The fear of not being a nice person can be a very high price to pay for an authentic life.
Anger is a gift
These fears lead to the mistaken conclusion that anger is a problem. Far from being a negative emotion, anger is a gift. It is a powerful energy for change that often goes unnoticed, both personally and collectively. The repression of anger, casting it into the shadow, which eventually makes it explode like a volcano, is the problem.
The taboo of anger
A person is trained from birth to believe that anger is a bad thing and should not be allowed to feel and is easy to control. There is a taboo about the streak, where some prefer to get sick and die, rather than being angry. This taboo can be particularly strong in people who consider themselves too enlightened and spiritualized to be angry.
It is not always easy to see when repressed anger is sabotaging your life. There are many disguises for anger. Anger can be expressed in:
· Passive-aggressive behavior
· Sarcastic comments
· Gossip
· Accidents
· Alcohol and drugs
· Behavioral addictions – sex, shopping, debts, gambling, etc.
· Illnesses
· Depression
· Reviews, among other issues
An extramarital affair is sometimes the result of anger towards the partner and this anger can be worked on, before the error happens.
How much does it cost to decrease anger
It is not possible to suppress one emotion without suppressing others. By suppressing anger, you will suppress love and joy as well. If you have ever felt a little dejected, grumpy or impatient, if life is a little monotonous or your sexual desire is diminishing, tune in to your body and ask yourself, why am I angry? Do not answer with your mind. Let your body speak and pay attention to the response, watch.
Unleash your power
Redeemed anger is power. By having the courage to face the demon of your own anger, you will release a power that you never knew existed. Experience a feeling of deep peace and inner freedom. Develop a sense of dominance and self-confidence in your life.
Get your body back
Sometimes, people come for tantric massage, because they have suppressed and suppressed so much anger that their body is numb, unable to feel. What is not recognized in the emotional body, will find a way to express itself in the physical body.
