  • Guided Meditation: Meeting Anger with Awareness - Tara Brach
    When anger is held in mindfulness, it can energize us to respond wisely to challenging situations. This meditation guides us in meeting personal or societal anger with RAIN - recognize, allow, investigate and nurture.
    The guided meditation starts at 4:37.

    I have very recently called in "guidance" with respect to establishing a (what I will call) a more sophisticated relationship with my anger. Intuitively I know there are far more options than "burning down the village" - however, often I seem unable to access an alternative, when I really need to.. Thank you for answering the call with this meditation. I no longer wish to fight my personal "battles" in my relationships (those that remain), in my community, nor upon the world stage.

    hearing this today on June 14th .. and feeling grateful to hear this .. it feels calming , sensible and helping me to re focus. thank you as always for 'here for us'... also , resonating with some of the comments from others.. the sadness of family members isolating from each other ..the difficulty of making space for loved ones decisions without taking it 'personal'..that journey in itself is so difficult for some of us.

    That was great. I found that what I Wanted is protection. I lost a friendship and my heart was broken. I thought that person would be for ever watching over💔. I get angry with too many questions. If my partner ask so many that means I have to take care of him. Not him of me.
    I also want some freedom from responsibility. I'll keep working on it.
    Mil gracias

    Thank you! I've been incredibly emotional, and I have gotten to the point where I am so affected by the ugly things I'm seeing among even my friends and family that I feel like all I can do is avoid right now in order to keep from getting severely depressed.
    I was able to go deeper with this meditation, but realize I'm just barely scratching the surface. I will definitely be doing this many times more.
    Namaste

      I am in a similar place emotionally. Hang in there! ❤ I keep reminding myself that most of these crazy feelings that I'm experiencing right now mean that I actually CARE. I suppose that is better than being numb

      @@Kathie4 A friend of mine said that anyone who doesn't get emotional these days has no soul.... I don't get really angry but more frustrated and very emotional and tearful.

    Just sat with this for the second time today. The first time was interrupted several times by arguments with the object of my anger lol...but I heard enough to know I should sit here again, and maybe again.
    These arguments-in-my-head are why I chose this today. I know there's something behind them. And though the object is sort of a condescending jerk, my reactions to that only darken my spirit. RAIN is a perfect process for me to deal with this and I am getting a real sense of what it is that I'm angry with myself about that evokes the anger towards this other person. Thanks Tara!

    I have more questions about specific release from a long term situation but afraid to ask. Thank you for your service for so many years & offerings to help lift us all. So appreciated💜💜💜

      TH-cam comments, much like those on Reddit, run a full range between inspirationally helpful and diabolically stupid.
      Posted here with this stellar video, i expect that answers about your specific release are more likely to be met with love and insight.

    If the anger is righteous and used in accordance to natural Law.
    Anger is needed.
    We are loosing our freedoms every day. We should be angry

    I'm still so angry, even after doing this. Hopefully with repeat listens it gets easier. I'm so sick of people diminishing the struggle of disabled people by comparing us to others. It's not a competition for who is the most marginalised, and many people have multiple ways in which they are oppressed. I find ignorance the most difficult thing to cope with and feel hatred arising within myself in response.

    It's very difficult right now to have a rich white woman talk about how to deal with the world because her "black friend" gave her some ideas.
    I don't knowww how to say this in any sort of nicer way. It's really painful. It's very difficult right now. It feels inappropriate and icky. As well as the implication that young people (and older people) who are angry are only coming together in anger. Not that as I sat people didn't come and offer me water. Not that the people who speak at this protest are speaking of care and transformative justice.
    I'm reminded about what Maya Angelou has to say about anger. It's difficult to hear "when I've been triggered I remember this" when nothing systemic weighs on your heart. When the machine was built for you and by you, though we all have our own traumas, our own hardships.
    It's been awhile since Tara has spoken to me. To my friends, my family. My generation. I'll take the tools and wisdom I can and keep travelling.
