Angry Brain
Anger is something that people delude themselves about seriously, and it never goes away. At any time you could become angry, and as much as you meditate, as much as you pray, anger doesn’t go away does it? It just needs the trigger and there in lays the problem, the trigger. People villainize the emotion,…

Character and Conditioning
Is acting out of character depression? Depression precedes acting out of character. It’s the natural decay of the minds faculties from a mass of inhibitory tensions. It is living a life of “thou shalt not” without actually understanding why, or managing that “inner demon” so that it doesn’t smash it’s prison, your mind. It’s a…

Allow Anger
Anger can take two forms, either a galvanizing certainty which is solid and even helpful, or a misdirecting blindly destructive and poorly understood berserking which is destructive. Is this also why you may speak in anger, but actually speak constructively in anger? Yes. I have gotten very angry before and when upset behaved very focused…

Focus Anger
When you understand anger you begin to discover you don’t really have to control it. It arises like it does from the concept of control. You channel it. You own your anger by putting an end to objectifying your anger that is either making it a dirty object to bury in your mind, or projecting…

Thinking Anger
Beware. Anger seems to be an inflammatory topic. We all deal with anger frequently if not daily, and we have a lot of ways of dealing with it. We are actually told more about anger than we are about love. Yet of what use is it? If the common wisdom and understanding of angry is…

Clear Anger
What it comes down to, and hypnosis proves this, is what you don’t know and what you ignore, can and does hurt you. What you are pushing away continues to operate on its own even without your understanding. Thus we have episodes when we “act out of character.” We “don’t know why I did that.”…

Warped Thinking
Redress isn’t revenge, and this brings us to the second brain that differentiates between the sources of things. It prevents us from trying to mate with a fence post or eat rocks. At least for most. Some people are remarkably deranged, but the early mammal brain told us that not only do I need to…

A Ride in Your Head
Any student of logic knows that logic is just a form of cognitive reality checking. It is a function of the monkey mind taken to a cerebral level, and logic can be satisfied by any consistency. This is why even now psychology says that any belief that is commonly held by your culture cannot be…

Notice That You Are
Interpersonal expectations, they seem almost a certain recipe for grief, no? I tend to live by trusting a dog to poo on the carpet. It isn’t about any personal assault. It is just how the dog is. Then it’s marvellous when they go outside. It brightens your whole day. If you accept the “bad”, it…

Experience Of Anger
My sensory development is unusual, so the context for my experience is different. Some “normal” experience is muted for me and this makes them call me autistic. Do you have extra sensory perception? Extra-sensory perception is ill defined. For me, my orientation is more metacognitive. For I guess the normal person, sensory information is more…

Anger isn’t about what we think. Thinking people get angry. Ego based anger is insane, and part of why we fear anger is that it threatens the ego. Maybe the popular understanding of anger is mistaken, and maybe looking for others to either fix our anger or fix themselves so we won’t be angry at them, is even crazier still. Your feelings are real, your world is real, and it’s no ones fault.
