Controlling Your Anger
Just Puts it on Simmer

If you are looking for ways of controlling your anger, putting a gag on it does not work.

The best solution for dealing with anger is to see it for what is really is.

It is just your reaction to a bundle of ego thoughts and false beliefs.

Anger easily dissolves when you finally get that concept.

For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Of course, it has taken you a lifetime of developing your habit of listening to your ego, so it may take some time to break it.

How much time depends on your level of desire to change your life.

The good news is it doesn't take as long to unpack your emotional baggage as it took to pack it.

By applying these tips and techniques you will give up the idea of controlling your anger - because you will hardly have any to control.

Is it easy to make such dramatic life changes?

You are a powerful creator. You created your life the way it is now. I know, you don't want to hear that. But please stay with me here.

If you can create a stressful and depressing life, then you can certainly create a life of peace and happiness.

You just have to get your false ego self out of the way and allow it to happen naturally.

But, it will not work by controlling your anger. The very act of controlling is resistance and sets up defensive and fearful energy. Resistance is futile.

Why? Because what you resist persists.
What you give your attention to grows.

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned. - Buddha

One of the secrets to significantly reducing anger is to change your thought patterns - to let go of negative self talk created by your false ego.
