A New Approach to Rage...

[shadowkat]

Discovered a really cool way to deal with "rage" or "anger" - write a rage letter. This is what you do:

* Hand write a letter to the person you are really angry at - as if you were a child, using whatever words you want.
* Hide the letter.
* The next day, find the letter, revise it. Then hide it again, but in a different spot.
* The next day, find it, revise it a second time...until it meets with your approval.
* Tear it up and either bury it in the earth or burn it outside - while doing so...say these words, I offer this letter and all the anger in it to the universe to transmute it.

This way, you don't retain it. Because if you just rant in a private journal, it's kept. If you rant online - you spread it to others, infecting them, and if you send it to the person you are angry at - it makes it far worse.

Writing this down, so I can remember it.

Is also good to burn and talk to the smoke - and feel free to break pens and tear through paper. Don't hold back the first time through. Yes, I have done this, and it is wonderful

Sounds like a plan to me :-)

Both sound like very good plans to me actually.
