NAVIGATING ANGER is the second meditation for Chapter 1: Emotional First Aid Kit
One of the reasons why I would like to heal our relationship with anger is because it is an emotion that holds a tremendous amount of valuable information. Anger gives us insight into what our values are. It tells us if we feel we are being wronged or violated in some way. Anger is a motivator emotion and inspires people to take action and make changes.
We can try acknowledging our anger and expressing it in safe ways. We can yell into a pillow. We can push all the energy through strenuous physical activity like jogging, kickboxing or other sports. We can talk to a safe someone, or a therapist. We can write it all out on paper or create all kinds of art.
It can be helpful to meet the anger of children and young teens with empathy and compassion, and to help them learn to choose healthy, productive outlets for their frustrations. To validate the feeling of anger, and to lovingly put boundaries around safely expressing it.
