Anger and the Power of Release Shaina Tranquilino July 28, 2024

Anger is a natural human emotion, an intense response to perceived wrongs, injustices, or frustrations. However, how we handle anger can significantly impact our well-being and relationships. Traditionally, people might think of channeling their anger into revenge or retaliation, believing it to be a way to restore balance and achieve justice. But this approach often leads to more harm than good, creating an energy of imbalance that can perpetuate a cycle of negativity. A different approach involves releasing anger, which can foster healing, personal growth, and emotional balance.

The Cycle of Revenge and Its Consequences

Revenge might seem satisfying in the heat of the moment, providing a sense of justice or retribution. However, this satisfaction is usually short-lived. Thoughts of revenge can consume our minds, fueling anger and hatred. This emotional turbulence creates an energy of imbalance within us, affecting our mental and physical health. Prolonged anger and resentment can lead to stress, anxiety, and even depression. Moreover, acting on revenge often perpetuates a cycle of negativity, leading to further conflicts and emotional turmoil.

The Power of Releasing Anger

Releasing anger doesn't mean suppressing it or pretending it doesn't exist. It's about acknowledging the emotion, understanding its root cause, and finding healthy ways to let it go. This approach promotes emotional balance and allows us to move forward without being weighed down by negative feelings. Here are some strategies for releasing anger effectively:

1. Acknowledge Your Anger

The first step in releasing anger is to acknowledge it. Denying or suppressing anger can intensify the emotion over time. Recognize that it's okay to feel angry and that this emotion is a natural response to certain situations. Give yourself permission to feel without judgment.

2. Understand the Root Cause

Take a moment to reflect on why you're angry. Is it a specific action, event, or person that triggered your anger? Understanding the root cause can help you address the underlying issue rather than just the surface emotion. This insight can also prevent future occurrences of similar anger triggers.

3. Express Your Feelings

Find a healthy outlet to express your anger. This could be talking to a trusted friend or therapist, writing in a journal, or engaging in physical activity. The goal is to release the pent-up energy in a way that doesn't harm yourself or others.

4. Practice Mindfulness and Meditation

Mindfulness and meditation can be powerful tools for managing anger. These practices help you stay present, observe your emotions without judgment, and develop a sense of inner calm. Regular mindfulness practice can reduce the intensity of anger and improve your overall emotional resilience.

5. Cultivate Empathy and Compassion

Try to see the situation from the other person's perspective. Cultivating empathy and compassion can soften your anger and help you understand the motivations behind others' actions. This doesn't mean excusing harmful behavior, but it can provide a broader context that aids in forgiveness and letting go.

6. Engage in Physical Activity

Physical activity is a great way to release the physical tension associated with anger. Whether it's going for a run, practicing yoga, or hitting a punching bag, exercise can help dissipate the intense energy of anger and leave you feeling more balanced.

7. Create a Peaceful Environment

Surround yourself with a calming environment. This could involve decluttering your space, spending time in nature, or engaging in activities that bring you joy and relaxation. A peaceful environment can help soothe your mind and reduce the intensity of anger.

The Benefits of Releasing Anger

By releasing anger, you create space for positive emotions and experiences. Letting go of anger can lead to:

Improved Mental Health: Reduced stress, anxiety, and depression.

Better Relationships: More harmonious interactions and less conflict.

Enhanced Physical Health: Lower blood pressure and reduced risk of stress-related illnesses.

Personal Growth: Greater emotional resilience and self-awareness.

Inner Peace: A deeper sense of calm and contentment.

Releasing anger is a powerful act of self-care and emotional maturity. While it may require effort and practice, the benefits far outweigh the temporary satisfaction of revenge. By acknowledging, understanding, and releasing your anger, you can create a more balanced and fulfilling life. Remember, true strength lies in the ability to let go and find peace within yourself.

Amen

The power of being a HUMAN

Hello my friends 🙏☺️❤️

Sometimes the world seems deeply unfair. People often focus on punishment, guilt, and justice, not realizing they cause even more misery. In psychology, there's a famous triangle: attacker-victim-and the savior. People who save might become the victim of the victim and the attacker of the attacker.

We all are mobile, shifting between these roles throughout our lives.Between black and white, we have all the colors of the rainbow. We're all complicated beings, having both light and shadows of our own. We move along various scales in life - between being a victim, savior, or aggressor; between shadow and light; between justice and compassion; between self-acceptance and self-hate.The solution is being compassionate, firstly inwards to yourself. You might feel anger, jealousy, fear and disgust - congratulations, YOU ARE A HUMAN.

It's so hard to accept the pain that our reality and world is full of... And the temptation to divide into right and wrong, those who should suffer and those who shouldn't... But the truth is that no one should be punished or suffer.As the beautiful African proverb says: "The child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth". 🔥

No child, no animal, no group, no patient, no member, no friend should be left alone... The healing of the individual is the healing of society. The healing of a nation is the healing of the world.

It's true, this path isn't easy. It's unknown. But from 300,000 years of human existence, if we choose to believe the theory of science - for more than 99% of humankind's life span we lived in harmony with life and nature. Only in the last 1% of time have we developed so much that we forgot our roots... But the roots of harmony and compassion are always there, therefore we can remember them whenever we're ready to look beyond the known.

Let's explore new paths of life, as individuals full of mutual solidarity - and as groups and humankind. We all are one, this life is short, let's make it the best lives possible for as many people as possible.

Thank you for reading ❤️❤️

Spending all your time focusing on everything you did wrong, every moment you felt awkward, every detail of your conversations, will leave you stuck in the past. It doesn't leave time for growth, change, or working on letting go of things that make you anxious. Forgive your past self so you can live in the present and build a better future.

"Wubba Lubba Dub Dub" -I am in great pain, please help me. That´s really interesting. I see the same Energy in most of the Memes these days. Christmastime is very tough and exhausting for many, although it´s considered the most wonderful time of the year. Employee in the social sector are working flat out right now. (Retail workers not to mention) Rick and Morty IS a very popular show, but in my opinion the message(s) is/are not getting enough attention. Sure it´s a weird and loopy show, but almost every single sentence is an allusion to our beliefs, morals, destructive and social behaviors and so much more. I really love the controversy in many topics! This show goes way deeper than most give it credit for. I wish everybody all the best, for the upcoming days and to the ones really not looking forward to all the jingle bells: The storm will blow over. This is only for a short time of the winter. Like every other day in life, it will pass all the same. [As always, excuse my french.] #christmas #rickandmorty #wubbalubbadubdub #getschwifty #ricksanchez #drawing #pencilart #depression #rickandmortyart #selfcare #decay #forthedamaged #chaoschaos #dust #smokedrawing #artwork #realistic #realisticrick #uncreativetags #lizzyeatsart https://www.instagram.com/p/BrJz_bSh68F/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qx6iupnb863a

She is beautiful but her looks never stood a chance when compared to how breathtaking her soul was.

The more I get matured the more I get disgusted by people's nature. Once you have seen people's true colours, no matter how lonely you're, don't connect with those toxic people again. They gonna lower your vibe, mood and your energy levels. You're better off alone than to be with those people.

Just because you see me speaking to a person kindly and nicely doesn't mean that I like them. I am just being diplomatic. Deep down I hate majority of the people for who they are.

One thing I realised about myself is I just can't be with a person just because they're good looking or nice. I look for intellectual compatibility. I look for great mindsets and high morals. I am highly attracted to people who has a deeper understanding of themselves because you'll only understand other people as much as you understand your own self.

I really have trust issues when it comes to female friendships. I personally seen lot of women coming to me and talking shit about their own best friends and the next day they be getting along with the same person like as if they never talked shit behind their back. Do you guys know there is a thing called loyalty ? If you claim someone as your friend you should defend their name behind their back not defame. I don't know how the hell in this universe they even call this shit as friendship.

I used to believe that scoring good marks and topping exams makes a person smart and intelligent. After joining college I've realised that I was wrong. From my personal experience I'm telling you that I've seen people who are academically so smart yet still lack basic common sense and manners. Education doesn't means just scoring good marks it's more like how much you've evolved as a person.

Being a pretty woman is really tough especially when it's comes to making friendships with other women. In most female friendships I had in my life either that woman sees me as a competition or tries to sabotage my confidence. It's always the same case and I am tired of this bullshit. Now I am no longer looking for friendships. I stick to myself. Sticking to yourself initially feels uncomfortable but it's peaceful.

One thing I learned on my own is to never ignore your intuition or gut instinct. Once you get a feeling that a certain person is toxic just from their vibe and energy, you better believe it. Ever felt your energy levels drained after speaking to a person ? Ever felt extremely low or tired after speaking to some people ? I felt this many times in my life. When I came to know about these people I just realised that my intuition was right all the time. Trust me if you're a person who is highly empathetic and spiritually evolved, your body is naturally going to reject those people whose energies are not good for your soul. This is the reason why I mostly don't talk to a lot of people. Some people think it's ego but I call it being protective of my energy.

Ever noticed that it's always the people with low self-esteem, constantly criticize and talk negatively of other people. These people don't have any kind of self love or self worth for themselves. In fact they even hate themselves. The only way that these insecure people can feel better about themselves is by talking negatively or down on people. By speaking lowly of other people they feed their ego so that they can feel superior to you. If you see people like this, you better maintain a certain level of distance from them. These are the people who are most likely to spread unnecessary rumours and they don't mind destroying other people's reputation. Stay away from these toxic vampires.

The best life-long relationship you'll ever have in your life is the one you have with yourself. Analyse your own self, find your strengths and weakness, find what makes makes you happy and do those things on regular basis. Make a list of things that makes you feel special about yourself. Reflect back on compliments you've received in your life. These things might sound very basic but trust me it will improve your self-esteem in the long run. Nobody can shake your confidence level if you know who you are.

One of the ways where a toxic person tries to put you down is by asking "what's your name" or by saying "hey, I forgot your name" or by mispronouncing your name even though they know you for months. If you're wondering why they do this, these people are very well aware of your power and they do this on purpose to break your confidence level. From their perspective they want you to think that you're not that much significant or notable to them. They act like they don't even heard that much about you just to make you feel inferior or common. Watch out for these kind of people they're actually jealous and intimidated by you. I personally seen a lot of jealous women exhibiting this behaviour.

She ain't anti-social. She's just highly selective with people who she allows into her life as she is extremely selfish with her own time and enegy.

Currently in my "I don't give a fuck era." The era where I don't give a fuck about what anybody thinks of me. The only person that I value and trust is myself and I am gonna do whatever it takes to keep my mind peaceful. I am extremely selfish for myself and my energy and I'm gonna get highly selective with people who can get access to me. I am no longer going to allow some random idiots to affect my inner wellness without my conscious permission. I am gonna cut off anything from my life if it costs my inner peace. Period.

People will only like you when you're on the same level as them or below them. Once you start to level up, they gonna hate you. They become terrified of your potential by what if you become more successful than them. Then they'll become obsessed with humbling you or belittling you. They're not there to support you, they're there to sabotage you. Never ever hesitate to cut off these people from your life. That's why they say you will lose a lot of people when you evolve.

I want a man who is untouchable by other women. A man who is not easily accessible to other women. A man with strong boundaries and standards. If another woman can be friendly with you, I don't want you at all. Period.
