In situations where things do not seem to go the expected way,
You may find it easy to resort to anger and feelings of resentment.
Annoying experiences just keep coming your way even though you are eager to stay calm and collected.
And although it may feel natural to give in to these negative emotions and feel them in your entire body,
It can also leave you depleted and filled with frustration,
Guilt and regret.
So what can we do about this?
If you are feeling angry right now,
You want to first think about who or what has triggered this response in you.
Acknowledge and name your emotions.
Think about whether these emotions are serving you at this moment.
Do you need to be angry?
You may find that anger is your default emotional response to certain situations and people,
But you also realize that it brings up unpleasant feelings that you'd much rather avoid.
So what can you do about this?
Consider this,
What if anger is a subconscious form of self-defense?
What if you just want to feel safe?
Share yourself with the world in a safe way.
What if anger is the shield that you are using against deeper emotions of sadness,
Fear or shame?
Explore this possibility and be curious about this emotion you are experiencing.
Once you recognize its source,
It will be easier to overcome it.
Observe it without any judgment and with a lot of compassion for yourself.
What thoughts are occurring to you when you feel angry?
How are these thoughts helping you resolve the situation?
What would it feel like if you decided to free yourself from the grip of this resentment?
Stay curious as you observe your thoughts and feelings around this.
How would it feel to forgive yourself or other people and situations that are producing these emotions for you?
How freeing that would be.
Even though anger may be the quickest and easiest reaction to reach for in certain situations,
Remind yourself that it is not the only response available to you.
Your subconscious programming taught you to pick anger out of the many other emotions as a way of survival.
But knowing this allows you to let go of these patterns.
Doing these meditations,
Hypnosis and positive affirmations consistently will help you reprogram your mind so that in a moment of heat you can guide yourself to pause,
Take a breath and reach for an emotion that will feel better afterward to you and the people around you.
Begin by getting into a comfortable lying position.
Notice how you are feeling today and decide to come home to your center by simply focusing your attention on your breath.
Take a deep breath in through the nose and out through the mouth.
Notice the pace and quality of your breath.
Where do you mostly feel it in your body?
Is it in your belly or chest area?
Or maybe you feel it more in your throat.
Whatever it is,
Observe without judgment and deepen your breath even more on the next inhale.
As you inhale,
Let the air flow into your belly easily.
Feel how it expands,
Letting the air move through your chest and expand your heart.
Hold for a second and exhale,
Letting the air leave your body,
Softening and nourishing every single muscle.
Continue breathing,
Finding the natural rhythm of your breath.
Try to see if you are feeling any lighter in your chest,
Neck or throat area.
Continue to release even more.
Take a deep breath in.
Let your belly rise.
Notice the air move through your body,
Calming and soothing it as you let it out.
On your next inhale,
Send your love to the parts of your body that are feeling tense and tense.
Continue softening as you breathe out.
Take another breath,
Feeling the coolness of the air as it first touches the tip of your nose and moves through your nostrils,
Continuing its journey through your body.
Notice how the freshness of the air transforms into a gentle sensation of warmth as it reaches your heart center.
And breathe out.
Embrace these sensations as you take a few other deep breaths.
In and out.
Notice how much calmer you feel and how nurturing it is to be at ease in your body.
How nice it is to know that you can always choose to come back to your breath whenever you need it.
It's always there for you.
