What To Do With Our Anger

I’m going to share something with you that I’m probably not “supposed” to talk about. It’s an emotion that is like a dirty word in the spiritual world. Heck, it’s a dirty word in most of the world.

And that’s anger.

When we think of someone who is angry, we think of someone who is out of control, who we need to be afraid of... to protect ourselves from. It’s someone we may worry is not safe.
 
But that is often uncontrolled anger. What I’m talking about is simmering anger.
 
In the past few years, many of us have experienced these sorts of emotions ranging from outright, inner rage to a mild, general irritation.
 
The thing is, for me personally as a woman, I haven’t felt like I could express that inner anger in a way that would make others around me feel safe. It would make them uncomfortable.
 
You’ll notice I’m not saying “my anger” since I really don’t want to permanently identify with it… I know it’s a temporary emotion. And often beneath anger is sadness. 

I'm going to share more soon about my personal experience moving through layers of anger, and then sadness, especially as I reflect on the past few years of heart-wrenching witnessing to the most massive mind control operation in my lifetime. 

At any rate, for us all, how do we move on from anger and sadness? All of these emotions can lead to overwhelm, lashing out at others, internalizing or a sense of paralysis.

Thankfully there are ways to cope.

And our society has trained us to numb the emotions that don’t feel good, to push them away by avoiding them with TV, social media, alcohol, food, you name it.

This only works for so long. Eventually the emotions will spill out, and often in weird ways. Like a volcano that wants to erupt, if we do not give our emotions a healthy outlet, they will spew out the sides anyway, often in less-than-ideal moments and ways.
