![ANGER
If,
one chooses to engage in
the art
of sitting with + holding space for that which angers and enrages you
Cool ass shit starts to happen.
-----
Note 1:
As opposed to the delightful shame game of splattering that energy outward and then beating oneself up over it. Ex: anger imposed onto those we love, random people, the person beside us in line, the entire room, our social media sharing, the environment, the steering wheel of the car, our own bodies by means of excessive exercise/substances/forced physical changes...and so on.
Note 2:
Transmuting anger and deep grief has been a practice that has been enriching to yours truly over here but easily avoided!
So- What DO I mean by "cool ass shit" happens??? Because quite frankly it sounds impossible, weird and time NOT well spent...ya- I used to feel that way too.
Until I kept showing back up with my mentor, therapist, coach, Anna Pittman, and anger kept knocking at my door.
Some personal examples of cool ass shit that happens when you allow anger:
- clarity in a situation finally pulls up instead of feeling stuck.
- i redirect feeling consumed and retelling the story to 25 times to a feeling of empowerment & courage inside of myself and can more easily take action.
- i finally understood what the whole self love movement is all about- when i can make room for all of me, I feel like I belong in my own skin.
- i can have a more effective conversation with someone I love.
- less physical tension in my body such as my left shoulder, abdomen, pelvic floor
- instead of reading an inspirational meme, I transform into the person who EMBODIES that inspirational meme.
- i become more authentic each and every time- with a deeper understanding on what I do and do not prefer, what I believe and do not believe, what I am desiring to make room for in my life and no longer.
All the energetic chains that have bound me and weighed me down start popping off.
It is a feeling of true self love- true freedom.
And from there- loving relationships are deepened, support becomes available, new opportunities arise, pockets of time open up-
It is just cool ass shit!
