Walking around being annoyed, grumpy, upset, angry, furious - takes energy from us if we don't acknowledge and accept it. Anger fulfills a function that is important to us like putting up boundaries to be able to feel our integraty. 

How angry are you? Look at the words above.  Feel - which word fits best?

Where in your body do you feel the anger? Is it in your stomach, back, shoulders or where?

On a scale of 0-10, how strong is it? Stay in this feeling as you continue reading.

What are you angry about? Is it a specific person - than just direct your anger to that person! Not in perso of course but in your imagination.

Is it Life in general that just feels too difficult - everything just goes wrong, the computer, the phone not to mention your body that doesn't want to work - you are angry and annoyed at how much the pain, the lack of energy, the fatigue hinders you in your everyday life? The pain may seem difficult to get angry about, but if you place it outside of yourself (bring out a symbol for the pain, e.g. a ball) and let it receive your expressions of anger.

Being angry with a person can be difficult for some people because we both love them, feel sorry for them, and are angry with them. It can help to distinguish between the person we love, the one we feel sorry for, and the one we are angry with.

At the same time as you feel and try to express your anger, thoughts of guilt may come up
 
1.              I have no right to be angry
 
2.              I know how hard it is for them
 
3.              It's my fault
 
4.              I should have done things differently
 
5.              I'm impossible
 
Notice if any of these thoughts come up when you're feeling angry. These guilt thoughts can prevent you from feeling angry-feeling fully.
 
Try to stay in the anger that you feel, even if it's only 2 on the scale.

Now go to the exercise!
