M O T H E R N AT U R E N U R T U R E S • A L A N M A R R I O T T Anger management: The heat of the moment. Have you ever been in a situation where someone said or did something that upset you and caused you to overreact with anger, only to find that later you feel guilty for overreacting, or the anger lingers for the rest of the day, even forgetting why you were angry in the first place? Firstly, we need to understand that we only really have two primitive emotions - anger and fear (flight or fight). These emotions are primitive and extremely powerful and all other emotions stem from these. So how can we let the heat of the moment go without flipping out or bottling it up? You must change your attitude towards your anger and pay attention to what it is saying to you in a new, positive, and more understanding way. Understand that anger is simply an emotion and if you have the wrong attitude toward that emotion it will consume you very quickly. Emotions are your messengers. They work for you. You employ them to do a job for you. It's not their fault that you don't want to listen to them. by Alan Marriott Anger is not telling you to lash out at someone or to blow a fuse, it is simply letting you know that what was just said or done did not fit with your morals or values. By understanding this, you can then pay attention to th e anger with a new and more understanding attitude. You can remain calm, collected and confident, and able to deal with the situation at hand. Sometimes you just need to let the other person involved know that they have upset you. By doing this, you are paying attention to your anger and releasing it. They may even react badly to you being calm and honest, but then that would be their problem and not yours. Holding on to anger is only draining you. Quite often people will not know they have made you angry and if they are made aware of it, will often quickly forget about it. Set yourself free by learning to communicate better with your emotions, and they will only serve you well and help you to be a better person.
