When Anger becomes the Hunger

When was the last time you were angry? Few weeks ago? Days ago? Hours…or just minutes? Whenever it may be, we certainly do fall prey to this undesired lower emotion. Here’s something for you to ponder upon…

What do you do when you’re hungry? You eat. What happens when you feed yourself? You get energy, you function and you thrive. What happens if you stop feeding yourself and don’t give attention? You probably might not survive.

Similarly,

What happens when you’re angry? You express, or perhaps suppress. Eitherways, you are giving it attention and essentially feeding it! By constantly feeding the anger, you give it energy to thrive and it influences the way you function. Once you stop giving attention or feeding the anger, it fades away.

The transformative way is to starve the anger and feed the goodness. This is how…

Observe: Observe your feelings and take notice of the situation. In the initial stages, it is completely normal if the observation only takes place after the outburst. Awareness builds with practice.

Discern: Do you like how it feels or are you just used to it? How you feel emotionally and mentally certainly does affect your performance, but it also has undesired impact on the physical wellbeing as suggested by psychosomatic medicine research, as well as bioplasmic body studies. So be kind to yourself and take care of your emotional and mental well-being. It is not ‘cool’ to experience less than optimal health and performance.

Understand: Understand that not every situation, external reaction or result is under your control. But you can control your viewpoint and influence it. In other words, everyone views situations from the lenses they wear and act on it based on their reality. How this information is received by others depends on the filter they carry, i.e., what they absorb and reject. Realizing and accepting this fuels the transmutation process.

Re-direct: Focus your attention and energy on what sustains your desired wellbeing and results.

It’s certainly a gradual process, but a definite solution. Even better, it can be used to tackle any other unwanted emotions or situations. A testimony of its application is a case of my client who was facing multiple health issues for years and experiencing excruciating headache for a month. The root cause being stress, worry and mild anxiety. Using this approach the constant headache went away just after our first coaching conversation and the overall health continues to improve significantly. How did that happen? Not by magic, but by feeding the right thoughts and emotions.

So the next time your anger becomes the hunger, feed the goodness instead!

Have you ever kept track of the number of times you consciously or unconsciously slip into negative thinking & negative self talk?

Well I caught myself doing that couple of times…that’s what makes us human, isn’t it? I would say yes, and I will add on that it is because we are human, we have the power and ability to shift that!

Lower vibration thinking pulls our energy, state of mind and results down. If you notice yourself going lower, do this simple transmutation task which will change the way you perceive yourself, as well as boost self confidence & thought clarity. Here are some examples…

Lower vibration:

I am great at this BUT…

Higher vibration:

I am great at this and I could refine it by…

Lower vibration:

I wish I was as good as….

Higher vibration:

I really admire this quality in him/her. What can I learn from them?

*Note – You don’t have to be them. Take inspiration and drive it using your natural strengths.

Lower vibration:

I am stuck and going nowhere with this….

Higher vibration:

Let me find a way to tackle this and seek help from someone who can guide me through this.

Try this out for a week and gradually for a month and more to experience the shift. I look forward to hear about your progress
