Control Anger And Discomfort With Yoga

The reel of modern life makes you always feel tired, discomfortable and angry with everyone around you. Managing anger when it arrives is not easy. However, when you practice yoga, you will gradually develop yourself the ability to control and regulate your emotions.

Frequent anger can lead to risk of cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, weakness, nervous system effects and insomnia. When you are angry, your breathing becomes more uncontrollable, urgent, and intense. Practices yoga help learners control their breathing, know how to regulate and keep their breathing steady, and emotional balance. As a result, short-tempered people, after seeking yoga, gradually become more temperate and calmer. 

Any form of exercise, especially yoga, brings great benefits in psychological stabilization. Yoga makes you more open-minded, and tolerant in many situations where you would get angry easily, and also helps to control your emotions well. That's because yoga helps to release Endorphins - the hormone that plays a role in your excitement and enthusiasm during intense exercise.

Why do we use breath meditation to control anger? Because meditation not only stabilizes your emotions and relieves pressure, it also helps you stay calm even when you're experiencing anger. You will wonder why the breath and not the other parts of the body? Other than whether you cannot use your consciousness to command your heart to stop beating or the blood to stop flowing, the breath is something you can observe and control, and can train it.
