On yesterday's livestream I told Nick that he should go break something in his yard as a way to get out the frustration and anger that he had been holding in. A member of our community was kind enough to share 2 research articles that actually doing that could make us feel more angry! (who knew right? Actually, I guess the researchers did.. lol) I wanted to share those articles here, so we can all learn something new :) I hope your week is off to a great start!!! xoxo

Vsauce also did an episode in Mind Field related to how our mind works around destruction. One of their experiments also yielded the same result. Definitely less rigorous than a scientific research. I wouldn't take this as scientific proof of anything, but I like the video and wanted to share it in case it helps. https://youtu.be/zD68reVP0Ek

I'm not sure how much I agree with this, because in my mind, this tells me that we shouldn't communicate our anger to others. Yet, being angry IS a form communication that does need to be expressed. It's a matter more of controlling it, so that one isn't making rash decisions or violently acting out because of it.

The researcher quoted suggests communicating anger to others assertively, once you have calmed down, rather than aggressively while still all worked up. So ranting doesn’t help but being clear and firm, like “this made me angry and in the future please don’t do it” is still all good. :)

For me. one good long yell with a maybe a couple of curse words gets it out. Sometimes in the car, sometimes in my house but I'm always alone when I do that. Funny thing is, if I yell at home, my 2 cats don't run away, they come to see what's wrong and if they can help.

In Greek it’s seen as a controllable loss. But as with almost everything, within reason. Too much of one thing become bad. And with every person being different it also boils down to what helps you. For one person it may be a controlled loss and help them on path of healing. For another it may bring back traumatic memories. Another person will have a totally different response.
