“Face it, embrace it, and then release it.” These words have been part of my healing process for years. However, the power lies in the awareness of what we need to face, own and then ultimately release. Sometimes this process may take minutes, or if we are emotionally attached to the situation it may take longer, perhaps years. The key is to recognize the process, see the situation for what it is, therefore, Face It. Understand how you are emotionally attached to the situation which is resulting in the feelings of anger; therefore, Embrace It. The last step, the most important and generally the most difficult step is to release the emotional attachment. Here are a few affirmations and visual techniques to help you when applying this concept to assist you in healing anger.

It is okay for me to be angry, feel anger and experience the anger throughout my being. I own that this is how I see from my lens and feel throughout my emotional, physical and mental state of being.

When I am ready, I choose to replace this anger with forgiveness first directed toward myself then toward the experience, and all involved. As I forgive I say to myself, “I release all the toxic emotional poison that this anger holds in every cell and fiber of my being.” I visualize extracting and pulling this toxicity out of my physical being. I create a visual such as a basting syringe that is pulling this clear toxic substance out of my organs and blood stream. Then I imagine releasing it and replacing it with a bath of beautiful light in colors such as green, white or purple a full submersion like you were dying an Easter egg.

Oh, how I punish myself with New Year’s Resolutions. This year, for the 57th year in a row, I have decided to get fit, lose the fat shaped like an inflated inner tube around my abdomen, and not be afraid to take my shirt off in public this summer. Yeah, right. I can say that I am a warehouse of facts on nutrition, genetics, exercise, supplements, self-analysis and articles on losing the fat and getting ripped like the professionals. I still have self-image issues despite all of this knowledge.

Many books, seminars, workshops, and meditations concentrate on the power of forgiveness. Even I have taught numerous workshops and written about forgiveness. Forgiveness allows us to let go of resentments and negative thinking that will eventually make us sick. The notion is that we have to forgive everyone who has harmed us, including ourselves. I have come to the realization that philosophy only scratches the surface and needs deeper analysis.

I had an experience with another driver in Atlanta, Ga. The driver had tailgated me for miles, and then passed me on the right of a four lane local road and cut me off at an intersection. I blared my horn at him to let him know how much I did not appreciate his aggressive driving. He got out of his car and started screaming at me and I actually thought I might have to defend myself. The traffic light turned green and he got back in his car and drove off at a dangerously high speed.
