Krodha (Anger) Detox

If misused, the fire of anger can destroy a happy family, friendship and peace of mind.

Why Detox Anger?

It can lead to bitterness and revenge, fear and self-affliction, loss of self-confidence and loss of courage.

Anger affects your body, mind and heart. It is a contraction of energy manifesting as stiffness in the body, physical dysfunction, and a loss of energy, sensitivity and awareness. It leads to an uncontrollable flow of energy through emotion, thought and action. How to deal with such energy distortions?

There are also physical effects, such as cardiac incoherence, prolonged high BP, hormonal disorders, alteration of the immune system, decrease in concentration, etc.

Anger can arise for many reasons, including:

• Unfulfilled desires, and rejected or neglected expectations,

• Failed plans,

• Inner lack,

• Someone is not listening to your requests, not following protocol, reminding you of your defects, saying, “I told you so!” etc., and

• Discord and insults.

Anger destroys individual peace, so can it promote happiness? No peaceful soul wants to associate with angry individuals, and unhappiness multiplies in the absence of affectionate associates. It also results later on in feelings of guilt and shame, with the resulting loss of self-esteem. Then the emotional burden becomes even heavier.

Anger and rage do not allow clear thinking. In the absence of clear thinking, imagine the kinds of decision you will make! In the absence of flourishing good qualities, what sort of destiny can you build? When you lose the purity of your intentions, how can you weave a destiny with the Divine?
