You may need to uproot fundamental parts of yourself if you are going to express your anger correctly. This is because we learn how to express anger when we are children. Children observe the way that their caretakers express anger and they just imitate what they see.

This is why you should make it a must that children not be around people who do not know how to show their anger in safe ways.

We Show Anger In Three Ways

We express our anger in three main ways. Outward ways of expressing anger include using violence, shouting, being threatening or making threats. Using sarcasm is a mild outward show of anger.

Some of us seethe or boil inwardly with anger, and do not show it on the outside. This is an inward expression of anger, and it is also a very unhealthy way to express anger. It leads to multiple health problems, one of them being problems with blood circulation. This form is also the kind that develops into rage.

You can do better at showing your anger than any one of these forms of anger.

Another thing you can do besides these two to express your anger better is to be more assertive of yourself when you are calm. While calm, talk to the people who upset you, and let them know how they did it. Just make sure that when you do this, you do it in a way that gets agreement and not an argument.

The objective is to not think about your anger and the cause of it.

Here is what you can do

One of the better things you can do beside learning to recognize when you are becoming angry is to learn to relax. You may think you already know how to do this but learn to do it better.

Being able to relax reduces the need to express anger in an unhealthy way. If you take really good notice of yourself, you will see that anger brings with it tension and anxiety. When you are able to relax you will be able to get rid of this tension and it will be easier for you to express your anger in the right way.

The internal or external events that occur in your life are interpreted by your brain. If in fact we have positive feelings about a life event, that's equates to a Non-Problem Status. So, we really only need to worry about life dramas when they create a negative emotion. Why? This article, the first of seven, will help you understand why.

Today, I'm going to share with you the importance of using your emotional brain to understand how your body reacts to events.

Randy Pausch, a 47 year old college professor, who recently died due to pancreatic cancer, said, "Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want". What is your experience of the events in your life?

Dr Mike Gosling has said, "Life is a series of events. Every event is an opportunity for change. It's from the most painful events that you change the most." Do you agree with what Dr. Mike said?

Every life event that occurs, gets interpreted by your brain. External events are received into your brain through our five senses and we are constantly busily examining our internal environment alsol - what's going on inside of our brain and body - to assess and to work out what's going on in our life.

If we have a positive feeling about a life event, that's a Non-Problem Status. Because when good things happen to us, it's 'no problem' for us, we don't care. In fact we feel good about it.

And, we really only need to worry about life dramas when they create a negative emotional impact and when we have a negative experience. Why?

Every negative experience that we have results in us accumulating stress, because every single emotion, every negative emotion that you have, is actually an Adrenalin response.

It's your body producing a stress response - producing a chemical because our brain has interpreted some form of danger to us and our well-being, some form of threat.

To go further, if I were to draw for you a cartoon sketch of a cross-section of our brain, the two major parts of the brain that are useful to know about is that section that resides just above the brain stem. It's called the Limbic System and the Cortex, the thinking part of the brain.

The Limbic System accomplishes all the feeling in the brain. This is a primitive part of the brain - animals have a Limbic system also - and it is responsible for our preservation instinct.

The other part of the brain, which does all of the thinking, is the Cortex. Human beings have a very developed Cortex, therefore we have a larger brain than most animals. The Limbic System and the Cortex are constantly inter-reacting with one another.

The Limbic System primarily assesses, using all the senses that come into the body, through sight, sound, touch, taste, smell.

So even if you're tasting something, that experience is first assessed by the Limbic System for danger to see whether or not there is anything about what you are sensing that is going to cause a threat to this organism that it's looking after.

That's all for today. In my next article I'm going to share with you the story of the zebra; how it uses its brain to deal with danger or threat. Are we like the zebra? Its all part of what I call The Science of Emotional Wealth. So be sure to keep an eye out for my articles.
