Anger Management

 

Road rage, air rage, work rage, relationship rage. As a society, it seems that anger, rage, resentment and frustration are fast becoming more and more a problem of our times. While anger can be a natural human reaction, righteous or otherwise, it can also be extremely destructive if not channelled correctly. As such it can be dangerous and can impact your family, your career
and ultimately your health and well-being. Anger induces fear and resentment in others and is a fast track to destroying relationships, personal and professional. The thing is, what can be done about it?

Anger, as an emotion, is intimately related to the moment to moment stress and tension levels of the brain and nervous system. The secret to managing and transforming anger lies in how you choose to run both your brain and nervous system. At Body Mind Energetics, we teach a two fold approach to anger management.

1. Inner Still Point Training
While you can philosophise about anger and what to do about it all day, resolving and transforming it requires a more practical approach. Inner still point training is essentially a training for your nervous system and teaches you how to run it optimally. Based on simple Taoist and Buddhist practices, inner still point training is about bringing your nervous system back to its natural point of harmony and equilibrium - your inner still point.

Benefits include :
(1) de-stressing your nervous system
(2) harmonising and balancing your emotions
(3) re-focusing and clarifying your mind
(4) discovering the art of relaxation

Inner still point training helps you build an inner framework that helps hold you back from reacting unnecessarily to stimuli that would otherwise provoke an anger response. The philosophy is simple. The more you can familiarise yourself with the full range of potential of your nervous system and how to develop it, the more you will be able to avoid being drawn into states of anger, rage, frustration and resentment.

2. Transforming Anger
But what do you do when caught up in the anger response? How do you prevent yourself from becoming increasingly wound up, impulsive and irrational? A different range of techniques supports you in transforming anger and the stress response and channeling it safely.
