Hi this is an EFT tapping meditation for managing anger. This is designed to be used in conjunction with the course on managing anger but of course you can just use it anytime you need it when you're feeling overwhelmed, The emotions are feelings and of course feel free to replace any of the words that I say with words that resonate more strongly with you. Anger it's very strong emotion it can overtake us quickly and before we know it we've gone into a reactive mode and possibly created more damage than the feeling of anger itself. I'm 62 and I am now in Australia and these are tools have helped me along the way I've had a lot of challenges in my life and EFT has been one of those things that has really helped and what's good now is that there is the science to back it up there's been a lot of research and it works on meridians which are the same as they use in acupuncture and if you're new to EFT I have an introduction to EFT video which goes through all the points where you tap as you do that as you go through the meditation. So you can replace anything that I say with words that resonate more strongly for you and it doesn't matter whether you say positive things or negative things it's just about releasing it in a safe way before it does more damage to yourself and possibly to others too. So on a scale of 1 to 10 and this is purely subjective how angry are you feeling right now where 1 is completely calm and 10 completely overwhelmed by anger you feel frustrated and you don't know where to go you can't think straight because anger obliterates our ability to think straight and make rational decisions so by doing the EFT that helps to release the anger before then we decide how we're going to respond. So once you've got that number in mind start tapping on the side of the hand and it doesn't matter which side you do it and as I do start tapping like that I can immediately feel my body start to calm down so maybe you do too and it's okay to feel whatever you feel you might feel the emotions moving through you as you start to tap and that's good because that means you're releasing them even though I have all of this anger inside of me I completely and deeply love and accept myself even though I sometimes feel so overwhelmed by anger and I want to lash out I still completely and deeply love and accept myself even though this anger just doesn't seem to want to go away and I feel like I'm just full of range right now I completely and deeply love and accept myself and I honor how I feel all this anger inside of me sometimes I don't even know what causes it it seems to just take over it rages through my body it hijacks my mind and sometimes I end up saying or doing things that I later regret because I act on this anger it feels like a great thing to do at the time but I know deep down it's not really helpful side of the eye all this anger raging through my body under the eye and sometimes I just get triggered so easily under the nose and all I want to do is lash out and hurt somebody the chin and sometimes I end up hurting myself even more collarbone and it affects my relationships under the arm and also the relationship with myself top of the head and I don't want to be like this eyebrow I don't want to feel angry I want to be able to respond in a more kind and helpful way these silly things that make me angry under the nose it can be so frustrating at times chin but then other people do things collarbone and I feel like I don't have a choice but to respond with anger under the arm because they're doing bad things and hurting other people but the head so I'm right to feel angry eyebrow it's justified side of the eye anyone would get angry if they saw that so it's not just me under the nose and I should tell them what they're doing wrong and why I'm getting angry because I'm justified it's right that I feel angry and then at the same time I don't want to feel like that there's conflict within myself top of the head and I don't know the appropriate way to respond eyebrow point but perhaps I could just take a pause side of the eye take some deep breaths under the eye I'm only human under the nose and I'm not perfect chin but I also know that I have a choice collarbone maybe I can't stop the feelings of anger coming up because of old patterns and habits top of the head it's a conditioned response my nervous system and brain are wired that way side of the eye that when I get triggered I start to feel angry under the eye so I can't stop my feelings under the nose I can't change my feelings chin but I can change the way I respond collarbone and I can start feeling compassion for myself and sometimes it's okay to feel angry about injustices top of the head but when I take a pause eyebrow take some deep breaths side of the eye do some tapping chin under the eye it gives my nervous system a chance to reset under the nose and gives me a space chin before I decide how I'm going to respond collarbone and I'm going to always choose to respond with kindness under the arm kindness for myself top of the head and compassion for the people who made me feel angry eyebrow because they were doing their best side of the eye like me they're human under the eye like me they probably got triggered under the nose and they didn't know any other way chin but I don't have to accept the anger collarbone I can choose to respond with peace even if that means walking away under the arm because I can't do anything about other people top of the head I can only choose the way that I respond eyebrow and if I'm kinder and more loving side of the eye especially to myself under the eye then that reduces the amount of anger in the world under the nose and I'm choosing to reduce anger chin by doing my part collarbone because if I can remain calm under the arm maybe the situation will be diffused top of the head and reduce the amount of anger that I feel in the future as well stop tapping take some deep breaths close your eyes if you wish now on a scale of 1-10 how do you feel comparing that to the number you felt at the beginning has it gone up or down? Hopefully it's gone down but if it's gone up that's okay too maybe the anger had been suppressed and it was starting to come up you might start to feel more angry for a while do some more tapping until the number starts to go down I know for myself as I said at the beginning as soon as I start tapping I felt that immediate sense of relief and calm so thank you for tapping along with me today and together we are reducing the amount of anger in the world and doesn't the world need that right now? And I will see you again on the next video take care, Go well and lots of love
