- In this video we will be talking about The 10 ways to control or anger from the writings of Seneca. Seneca was a Roman statesman and stoic philosopher, who in his book De Ira, offers us tips to prevent and control anger within Stoic philosophy.
So here are 10 tips from Seneca to control your anger -
01. Recognize that anger is destructive
02. Recognize your anger triggers and learn to control them
03. Just wait
04. Use art and music to calm the mind
05. See yourself as an offender
06. Heal rather than punish
07. Choose your friends wisely
08. Don’t seek reasons to be angry
09. Use self-deprecating humor
10. Practice Self-reflection
Seneca was a prominent Roman philosopher and playwright who published several essential works about Stoicism. He counselled Emperor Nero, and thought that anger is a temporary madness, and that even when justified, we should never act on the basis of it because it affects our sanity. Seneca wrote a book specifically on anger called “De Ira” which defines and explains anger within the context of Stoic philosophy, and offers advice on how to prevent and control anger and that’s why in this video we are going to look at 10 ways we can control our anger from the teachings of Seneca.
Stoicism is a school of Hellenistic philosophy founded by Zeno of Citium in Athens in the early 3rd century BC. Even though it is over 2000 years old, more and more people are discovering how Stoicism is not only relevant to modern times, but can be applied in very simple, yet strong ways.

Seneca says “We shouldn’t control anger, but destroy it entirely - for what control is there for a thing that’s fundamentally wicked?”...Hope you all like this video. Do subscribe and don’t forget to press the bell icon for more such philosophical videos.
@J J Fight or Flight.
While irrational anger is deserved to be controlled there are situations and times when one needs to be angry instead of becoming passive spectators of some ills being carried out.
Anger can motivate also to something creative work and many a great creative works has on its back an angry past of the creators out of victim of deprivation and exploitations.
Even God gets angry or act upon his anger from time to time. Us mortals just need to know when and where to unleashed it and who it will fall to. Good video though.
Neron got very angry with Seneca and told him to commit suicide. Also Petronius got the same punishment.
He mean let it go,surrender I think to destroy anger because its wickedness has a double meaning in our time.
Anger is damaging I'm recovering from anger issues. I tend to bottle things up a lot, so when I burst I burst and make sure I completely hurt whoever my anger is directed towards. I thought that was power but I realized calmness is true power. And people hate it when you're calm because they don't know what is what. These days I try to use negative emotions as a fuel to do positive things. e.g when I remember something that makes me angry and can't get it out of my mind, I clean my room or do any physical activity that is productive to instill order in my mind and emotional system.
Edit: Thank You guys all for the for the support. It's crazy because we are so apart but so close. My heart has been touched. For those who are still battling with this very intense emotion(energy) you can overcome it. I am not perfect but my anger has simmered a lot. I wish I could reply to each comment.
@Neal Chestnut 😆 No thanks...
That’s wonderful!!! Thanks for sharing 😉
I can’t control my anger because of the slow wifi, the lag, and my annoying little brother!
can you tell me what other practices you do ,i do productive things and still irritated or angry by people
Powerful words. Thanks for sharing! Appreciate ya.
*_Stoicism is one of the rare ways of thinking_* that has actually CHANGED MY LIFE
It is something isn't it?
yes sir!
It’s probably rare because a lot of people nowadays lack the emotional intelligence to use it. Which is probably why mental illnesses has increased in the last decade(atleast according to articles that I had read).
Consider exploring the sufi philosophy, your game will be upgraded x100
It's rare because it is common sense. Something we humans aren't always very good at. So simple yet so difficult. It has changed me too. Even if I only soak up 1% it still changes something in me😊
If you want to stop getting angry then you need to stop all thoughts of how you believe others SHOULD behave.
I only care how people behave when they're directly attackingme, then I just move on and say until you learn how to behave properly and understand the word self-respect self-esteem and self-worth of another human we really don't have much to talk about
@@viceroybear6298 so your a selfish piece of shit
This is so true. “Should” only exists in our heads, we have to live in the real world
thisisbob1001 so you don’t get angry when a sibling tells you to go die in a fire or perhaps to rot in hell, your friends talk shit about you behind your back, you couldn’t possible know more than me cuz I’ve been alive longer than you ( personal favorite) etc. What you’re saying isn’t practical at all because your world view dictates your expectation of others based on societal standards and not everyone is on that bandwagon.
So I should stop believing its not okay for someone to hit a child? And shouldn't be angry about it?what....oh bob.
“You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
-Marcus Aurelius
We can anticipate how our behavior triggers outside events. The more impact one has the more one can anticipate outsiders seeking to destruct.
@Poose McPoose: LOL!!!😅
Marcus Aurelius may have had power over his mind. I do not. Learning to accept that reality is my power. Marcus Aurelius was delusional. Look around.
Yeah I'd never get over the fact that if my future was in the hands of total fools, there's no way in hell I'd ever not be pissed at that fact that we cannot control the outside world. In my opinion I'd think to not lash out is to allow bullshit the perpetuate. Better to be pissed off than to be complicit in the face of unacceptable behavior. Anger can be used as an energy source, to push one through any obstacle. So in my case I've found it to be the opposite of Marcus's quote. Because I come off strong, I less frequently have to deal with situations that would otherwise anger me anyway, as people can see you arnt here to play, and theyll get out of your way. A rather constructive way other than punching and kicking and screaming, unless that is required.
It’s lovely what you say
"Should not surround yourself with people that provokes you from getting angry"
I live with them.

“Any person capable of angering you becomes your master; he can anger you only when you permit yourself to be disturbed by him.”
-Epictetus
@@jorgeiv804 thank you, your quote did more for me than this stupid video
Represing anger is not the solution. Allowing anger to be, without acting on it, is the best way i have found so far. You can feel your emotions as advicers, but only you take the final decision.
yes very true. its also understanding yourself and recognizing what triggers you. I always think when we allow other people or things to trigger us, we are handing power over to them. So its important to learn how to manage yourself and liberate yourself from stress and being triggered every now and then. :)
I like this, good advice. Thanks
Yes! I love this. I have been practicing so much with allowing my emotions to MOVE through me, not settle. It becomes a problem when it settles. Allowing my emotions to move through me while still acknowledging it allows me to then analyze after and think more logically about why I was feeling that way and how to either prevent or guide myself through it if it happens again!
I completely agree... I find so much wrong with this video, that I don't know where to begin to rip it to pieces.
@@claudi010778 There's nothing to rip into pieces. Op's comment whether knowingly or unknowingly said the same crap the video said. Except in a reductionist way...
I was about to send a heated message to my half brother. Then I came to CZcams and this popped up. My angry scale was 90/100. This video helped out.
I agree Anger is temporary madness, anger is slavery.
I think Anger frees you from slavery. Those who never get angry tend to be slaves for others.
@@GospelOfTimothy Who angers you controls you.
@mena seven I wonder if God would agree. Many Bible passages give Clues to how man and his actions angers God. Do you think man is controlling God? Although I agree that men should not keep their anger bottled up, they should use their anger to motivate them to purchase military style weapons, train how to use them and join a militia. The reason why so many people in the Army commit suicide, is the army lies to our soldiers telling them about al-Qaeda in Iraq, babies being killed in incubators, 911 lies and weapons of mass destruction to get our soldiers angry enough to fight and drop bombs on villages of women and children. There is no free speech in the military so our soldiers can't learn how they were lied to and manipulated. When they get out of the service they learn the truth about the lies and commit suicide. This is why it's important to reach these soldiers and let them know that even though they fought for Satan's War, they can repent and fight as a soldier for Christ. The Bible says to helped Christ carry his cross. The devil tried to change the meaning of cross, into two sticks Crossing each other. But the word "cross" actually means anger. The Bible should be interpreted as saying, help Christ carry his "anger". Now you should be angry that you're enslaved with a job. You should be angry that swimming pool manufacturers kill over a thousand children a year while making 5 billion in profit. Then blaming the parents for the children who drown. You should be angry at bicycle manufacturers that kill children and then point their fingers at parents. Yes children ask for bicycles for Christmas, not knowing they could be killed and seriously injured on them. You probably even have a few bicycle injury stories from when you were a child. Remember them and then get angry. Because children are still being injured and killed and if you're not getting angry and motivated, you're responsible for their deaths.
Anger is a human way of expressing one of the many emotional state perfectly normal - - we are not robot yet - - anger is not violence or aggression - is actually very healthy - calm people are just a big bore
@@GospelOfTimothy Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms-to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.

Blaming others for your problems is a complete waste of time. When you do that, you don't learn anything. You can't grow and you can't mature. Thus you can't make your life better.
I could remember several years ago I suffered from severe depression and mental disorder. I was addicted to illicit pills, alcohol, and smoking until I was recommended for psilocybin mushroom treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly I'm 8 years clean now. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against anxiety and depression.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in New Zealand. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I had the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Is he on Instagram?
I hate getting angry. I've found that the moment I give in to expressing my anger it's like a wild animal escaped from its cage. I have control so long as I keep the cage door closed but if I open it just a little, to let off a little steam, it will often bust loose and escape and it's very hard, at that point, to contain. It's better for me to simply smile and walk away.
I totally feel the same I ended up hurting myself by running into the street and getting scabs on my legs and arms just because I couldn’t ignore my sister getting mad and having her tantrum
When I used to get angry I felt like my brain was gonna explode. But I took time to control it by thinking before I get angry.
I just stop, because I know that it is not right.
well... thats what you get for caging your emotions. Not unlike an angry caged animal ... you will see once you get rid of the cage... the animal tends to not be so angry anymore overall!
@Bas Wenmakers thank you. That actually helped
Music + cleaning the room or the house . Is another good way to leave the anger
😁🙌🏽❤️🙌🏽❤️😁
In a controlled environment clean Your locker box reorganize Your Belongings
Just wait and don’t react. The anger is fueled by impulse.
Ok this sounds more reasonable, because some other comments suggested that you shouldn't expect people to be nice but when someone's physical security is at risk I guess that something should be done. Like people with domestic violence maybe should deffends escape and not accept such behavior.
It bottles up
DO NOTHING

"We shouldn't control anger, but destroy it entirely..."
"10 ways we can control our anger."
Its impossible to destroy something that is naturally in us.
lol
A lot of things are natural in us, when it comes to anger the idea is to destroy it (e.i. 10 steps) before it gets out of hand and harm yourself and others.
@@guillermochavez2170 you can't destroy anger , only control it.
Anger is also powerful emotion
So remain quiet, patient and be strategically vengeful.
Lol, yes!
@Bas Wenmakers I read this in a Darth Vader voice
practising not to get triggered is the key :)

"Anger is like a hot coal. We can't hold onto it for too long without damaging ourselves."
Edit: "Anything that begins in Anger, ends in shame."
Ok PRINCES.
Ah but if you juggle the coal in your hands you can keep it until it burns away completely.
"Anything that begins in anger ends in shame" I have just recently discovered this. It doesn't matter if the anger is "justified" (whatever that means); actions that manifest from it end in a distancing from that for which we strive.
@@VagabondofRandom Unless you bury it, the heat may be missing but the coal remains.

Being ancient, and thus the last generation in my country to be routinely taught Latin and ancient Greek, I read Seneca at school. His wisdom is amazing, as was his early insights into the human mind, despite not knowing a thing about how the brain has evolved. Marcus Aurelius had a similar insight into our strengths and animalistic weaknesses. Thanks for a well presented summation.
Another anger trigger is when an ad comes up mid video

Thank you! Anger runs in my family, my father is the one who taught us (my sister’s & I) to be so angry & access that emotion so quickly. It’s hard. I decided to fully work on it about two years ago, so thank you for this video. I’m sure everyone else with anger issues appreciate this as well🙏🏼
If a person doesn't express their anger and rage continually and compromises then that can effect and damage a person's health. It can cause depression as it remains suppressed. Catharsis can be a good therapyfor your all round well being.
U r the most beautiful angry person i have seen!

I hope you can manage it
10 Ways to Manage Anger According to Seneca:
1. Recognise that Anger is Destructive - anger makes you a slave, anger cannot be slowed down, anger is contagious
2. Recognise Your Anger Triggers and Learn to Control Them - be mindful, being prepared helps you manage it better
3. Just Wait
4. Use Art and Music to Calm the Mind
5. See Yourself as an Offender - an unjustified estimate of our own worth makes us prone to anger
6. Heal Rather than Punish - we always feel anger longer than we feel hurt
7. Choose Your Friends Wisely - and resist the urge to be curious if you want to keep your peace of mind
8. Don't Seek Reasons to be Angry - practice negative visualization
9. Use Self-deprecating Humor - Cato's humourous response to the insult of being spit on
10. Practice Self-reflection - reflect on your character and actions, keep an anger journal, identify patterns of behaviour and plan coping strategies
Really, really, I state, the implementation of this advice immediately in my own life shall surely save my life.
I just tell myself, wait for a while and just let it pass, If you act on it you will regret it. Almost 100% of the time I appreciate that I wanted . It really confirms the believe that waiting is best . So the more you practice waiting the easier it becomes to convince your brain to wait.
Easy to say when people get upset they can't wait 😝
I get angry at people who are interfering with my tranquility in life. And my anger helps them realize they need to be more aware of their surroundings.
My anger is justified because I only get angry at things that cause problems.
I get angry at people who break and hurt people for fun.
And that will never change.
NickVanos yup I feel you on that. I do my best to always stay calm and happy , it takes a lot to upset me but once I get mad the anger and adrenaline just take over and I lose all control. Now a days If something or someone bothers me I’ll tell them straight to their face 1st just so I don’t let it build up to the point where I snap and lose all control , cause then it’s game over...for them 😛 lol
There’s a difference between anger and assertiveness.
Anger involves a loss of control, or bullying as a way to assert dominance.
Assertiveness is controlled and measured. It understands the position of the other person.
Great. Continue in your ignorance then. Continue to hurt others.
@@twiznizzlenore7822 No shit Sherlock. The Buddha rid himself of lust hate and delusion. Now who's smarter, the Buddha or Freud who said you could not rid yourself of emotion?

Anger is a gift. Learn to control it and use it as a tool to get things done. If left unchecked, it grows and becomes rage, which is harder to control.
I'm glad somebody said it, cuz damn it's been a true benefit when I have lack of motivation/determination. It's a great tool once understood and controlled
Real shit 💯
Anger is fuel needed to arrive at a better place. Rage is what happens when that fuel is lit on fire and explodes burning everything around it and turning it into ashes and toxic fumes that suffocate the possibility of reaching that better place.
@@docgillygun9531 So succinct!
Wrong. Anger is a curse, not a gift, and what you speak of is "negative drive". Negative drive is always inferior to positive drive, because negative and positive driving motivations will both lead to the desired outcome, except negative drive brings with it frustration, misery, an inability to enjoy the moment, and a likeliness to bring down others. No emotion has brought more pain and suffering into this world than anger and all of its minions, and it is not even very good at what it is intended for (prompting action). It is one of the few emotions which is genuinely a bug, not a feature. I agree with Seneca.
I am in general a kind and caring soul, but have always had problems with a quick temper. I find the strategies that are suggested here to be effective. At least for myself ....especially preparing your mind whenever possible before the potential event that may cause anger and catching it quickly, and secondly and I emphasize this part...keep your damn mouth shut until you have calmed down. Just don't talk while angry and you won't say something you will regret.

Such a great video on anger thanks for sharing this with us. I look forward to applying this new year to have things be happier for me and others around me.
Thank you for the presentation. We could all benefit from less anger. I’am really impressed w the Stoic philosophy. I’ve been watching the Stoic videos on UTube I’ve been taking notes also memorizing Stoic saying which are applicable to me personally.
Righteous anger is an important distinction to understand when you feel anger. You cannot rid yourself of a basic emotion and therefore the only solution is to harness its potential for good.
This video just seems to be demonising a natural and fundimental emotion. And one very much needed in our day an age to make a change. Everyone's fucking tolerating and being calm in the face of evil. This guy keeps giving anger loads of different names and attachments.
Common anger triggers... 😂 Literally tryna brainwash people to not feel how we are supposed to about the real world and making people believe in this nonsense.
@@zionsky3342 Do you really believe acting in anger is the way to change anything for the better? If it was, the world would be a better place already, since lots of what we do is under the tirany of anger and it's many forms.

Outstanding recommendations by Seneca. I remember one of my places of employment was next to Great Seneca Highway in Gaithersburg Maryland. I always wondered who Seneca was as a person. Now I know. Thanks goes out especially to the organization that produced this are the useful video clip. Great job!
This calmed me. Kudos to me that I've recognised I'm bothered by anger and yet anxious about the future confrontation in my mind. Now I'm a little calmer.
This is worth watching again or later. I like how you stressed the importance of writing as therapy.
yes or even drawing or walking in nature helps :)
The worst thing that can accompany anger is pride about being angry. I decided to never ever be angry again, it hurts me primarily. I serve people, as long as I see fit and necessary, but when they cross the line I just say no. And I say it calmly with a lot of confidence. This has helped me a lot with anger management, because people tend to get comfortable when you're trying to help them out and that used to set me on fire, the audacity, the injustice, cruelty and selfishness that people show when you help them... But now I just say no. Sometimes I justify it shortly sometimes I just say , I don't want to, it depends. But no is no. I used to think that saying no is cruel, it turns out that cruelty is when you "spoil" people with serving each one of their desires.You hurt them, and you hurt yourself too. Also one needs to remember, that choosing peace in tough situations is like being your own best friend. You know you will never ever add up to it... And the more vile people are the more stoic and forgiving and also firm and assistive you need to become.
I appreciate the stoic philosophy.. one trick I learned from Paramahansa Yogananda is to train your mind to hear the sound of a peaceful river stream before you react or speak upon provocation..it changes everything!
Thank you, this has impacted my life in a big way.
I found as I’ve gotten older anger drives from an accumulation of bothersome situations that weren’t properly addressed or dealt with.. then the boil over affect happens. I personally do not believe anger is a spontaneous emotion, but a inadequate ability to address personal conflict without being able to express it properly. “I’m mad because you peed on my shoes, but I’m angry because I don’t know how to deal with this situation…” resulting in me reverting to primal emotional instincts.
I’ve come such a long way.. but when I’m mad, I’m MAD and I hate that characteristic about me because me emotions at that moment arent ME.
It’s me in that moment, but when I’m good.. I’m good. Nobody ever chooses to see the good though. Or stop and think why or what made me this way, we all got a story. People just don’t be born mad at the universe lol.
Praying for better days
What I’ve learned about anger is that it is only the top of the iceberg…there are other underlying emotions like for example: humiliation,fear,frustration etc. Next time you get angry pay attention to other underlying emotions. Anger allowed me to identify those hidden emotions that need healing and are usually connected to childhood trauma. In other words anger is trying to tell you that there’s something wrong. Also pay attention to the thoughts you have while you’re angry.
Are you educated?
Uneducated people often have serious anger issues
Thank you for sharing. Anger is truly destructive. I’m learning from your sharing. And sharing it with my children.
I found Number 10 quite helpful for me, the reflections told me much about myself and much about the mental-weight I was unconsciously carrying. After consideration of what I control in this world vs. what I don't, much of my triggers dicipated. The anger in my mind has not abated entirely, however it is far more tame and a shadow of its former self
One correction: more in depth psychological study has proven that acting out angry feelings ( like punching a pillow) magnifies angry feelings like throwing gas on a fire.
Thanks for sharing what you have learned.
And it is kinda obvious aswell.
This a good one. I learn lat
Among the handful of my regretful actions I look back on, anger is often at the core of those. That said, I can't quite seem to let go of it for the fact that (for me, personally) it can also be useful. Gotta say that a touch of anger channelled at the right time just gets things done for me. Problem is, it can't be moderately or predictably tapped into. It has a life of it's own, no different than an electrical current, tornado, or any other force of nature
I wish I had watched this video before. Thanks a lot, I learned so much from this video and I will become more aware of how to control my frustration in the future.
Thank you very much for this.
I don't have that of an anger issue, But I need this when I feel like angriness is building up.

This is so true 👍
In my last video I spoke about strategies to manage your anger,
Anger if not managed appropriately can put full stop in your life...
I’d argue that anger, when properly controlled and funneled, is one of the most powerful and useful drives to action available. It is wrath and hatred that should be eliminated.
Anger destroys unskilled behavior and mental hangups, given the anger is allowed to bloom fully and wash over one's body and mind. The worst thing to do when angry is to THINK about why you're angry.
WHEN PROPERLY USED, CONTROLLED, OR FUNNELED. it's a tool that can be greatly utilized when used with strategy
I do truly believe that to master your mental health you should keep your teaching about it simple. Because the mind is simple, to comprehend something complex I all always break it down into it's small little ideas. Like a concept on anything, in order to understand it you need to master all the little ideas that make it. This is why I apply stoicism to everything I do.
Thanks for reading people.

The supposition to banish angry thoughts seems like being angry at angry thoughts. Perhaps compassion and contemplation are more productive and practical? Anger At racism, inequalities, physical threats etc seems an important emotion. And then how it is used. Or not.
"Be angry, and yet do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger." Ephesians 4:26 Even the Bible tells us to be angry, just to control it. I heard that God gives us controlled anger as a form of strength to confront wrongs and injustice.

Most of the time, the root of the anger is a void in the person that someone triggered ( All going back to Childhood). The more sense of self and whole one becomes, the less anger one experiences, internally and externally.
Totally LOVE this video, i have learned these things and how to work with it. I have searched for THIS video to show others around me how to use the head, and not the mouth or fists for harm ❤❤. Lovely video and speech 👍🙂.
Excellent for Educational purposes & learning.
~anger can be used to pull yourself out of depression and turn it into motivation.
Two thing I have learnt is when you feel annoyed you will get anger easier and so much anger come from annoyance and some are come form disdain
How to deal with anger,annoyance and disdain are " always know that the world will not go along with your will" ; "always know anger is fire ; annoyance is fire ; disdain is heat and you are fuel or the man who use the fire"

When confronted with “danger” the choice is simple , perish or fight. Fight could be fight or flight. All this happens Instantly.
However under normal circumstances one could try to control his / her anger. Most of the time the problem is that one can not control someone else’s anger. So not always you can be Seneca, you cannot just listen to the music. When you meet Hitler You might have to fight.
also I think making body reactions cerebral is also damaging.
First Last you can only control your own reaction in life . And with me I find the only reason to fight is if your cornered and have to, then let that kill or be killed mentality kick in and you’ll never lose. Anybody can throw a punch , but it takes a real strong person to walk away.
Anger is practical in life threatening situations. The aggression part of it at least. I’m referring to situations our ancestors commonly found themselves in. Being eaten by wild animals and the like.
The problem is that people use the same time-tested reactions in the modern age, where most problems are not literally and directly life threatening. People walk around angry over perceived slights. Something in the subconscious of the average person today senses the equivalent of imminent physical danger in something as simple as a dirty look.
I like your Philosophie of life..
The life is a school..so i learned with your channel..
Thanks for sharing my dear friend
I love this excercise
One moment of anger can turn into a life in prison... I always try to remember this
It is an expensive luxury.don’t you think rage is the Mother if Anger
Mentored Emperor Nero:
"How did that work out for ya?"
Nero commanded him to kill himself right? Or am i talking about someone else?
I had a lot of anger in my life. Now I can do something about it. Most certainly changed my life. I will be free of any anger, now... Thanks.
the most powerful realization i ever had was that when i got triggered i was basically saying i allow other people to control me. Once i realized that i decided i wasn't going to allow that. I am the boss of me and hence my happiness is my responsibility. :)

That's a good way to live
Incredible video. You earned yourself a subscriber.
Anger in itself is not necessarily a bad thing. It's just one emotion among many we as humans experience, and is often warranted. Anger can be a great motivator when channeled towards positive outcomes. The problem lies in the way so many people process their anger, where that anger gets directed and how it is expressed.
As a musician, I was curious about ancient Rome's culture and music, 2 years later end it up creating a small online business and learning about stoicism haha.
I am singer too . What type of music you produce buddy!
great video. anger management is the key to having a happy life and only a few know how to manage it.
Thanks so much for this
There’s nothing wrong with anger, emotions are messages and sometimes your anger is telling that a boundary is being overstepped. It’s a message telling you to protect yourself, given it’s healthy and not misplaced anger.
@Melisa Osm Hi from Melbourne, Australia! I totally agree with you, we have lots of emotions and we need to express them all. When triggered, in a healthy and balanced manner. Otherwise, if kept bottled up and left to go stale, they can be used incorrectly. If you are angry, then speak. Happy, then laugh, emotional then cry etc. etc. Take care in these uncertain times, catch ya later. (slang for see ya in Australia)
Its perfectly normal to be angry yes but I think the point here is not to hang onto anger to long "like a hot coal" also you choose how you respond to the anger
I see what you are saying and I would say it’s ok to experience the emotion. But I disagree that there is nothing wrong with the emotion. I just feel like that’s a way to justify a negative emotion that might not be able to be controlled by someone. I’m up for a debate.
P.s. I grew up with anger problems , so just know and note that I’m not attacking you 🙂
@@Intelligent_Ministry I don’t think there’s anything bad or wrong about any emotion including anger. As long as it’s processed and expressed in a healthy way and not used as an excuse to hurt others. Emotions are feedback, they show us our internal reality. Sometimes the anger may seem unnecessary but it’s an opportunity to dig and inquire about why it’s there.. sometimes it’s a false story we are telling ourselves that’s causing the anger. Or maybe someone crossed a boundary, so communication is necessary. Either way by identifying why it’s there resolution can be found. I think it’s important to use emotions as information rather then suppress or deny them :)
@@Melisaosm You know... That’s a very great way to put it . I can’t really say too much on that besides I can agree with that standpoint. The only reason I say that the emotion is bad is because if not controlled or taken care of it can cause a lot of harm to either yourself or to others around you . That sort of energy (or any energy on that level) can cause a ripple effect as well. What is a good way that anger could be used?
my anger makes me weak like when i get angry and mad i feel a pure weakness in my arms and feel like they are shaking without my choice and then i feel like my whole body is shaking without my choice😓
That could be because your body is flooding with adrenaline. It’s an ancient, natural reaction, so don’t worry about it. It’s a fight or flight reaction. Adrenaline in the body, if not used to run away from a sabre toothed tiger or fight the tribe trespassing on your territory, will make your muscles feel weak and heavy, bring you out in a cold sweat, gives you the shakes and many other things, even make you feel ill.
