Any Qigong exercises for suppressed anger?

[Kati]

Hello everyone i’ve been dealing with a lot of suppressed anger from childhood. Recently, I did a healing session with a Qigong master, and during that moment I felt a strong wave of old childhood anger. Some memories even appeared before my inner eye.

When I work on certain body parts—especially the throat—I can actually hear myself as a child screaming. It’s a fascinating and intense experience.

What I’ve noticed is that when I feel old sadness, I remain fairly grounded. But when I feel anger, I become ungrounded and unsettled.

I’m curious: are there specific Qigong exercises or approaches that can help in transforming or releasing anger in a healthy way ?

I asked something very similar some weeks ago, and the replies relied on the power of forgiveness and loving-kindness towards the person who hurt you and I can say it really works.

Let it dissolve into forgiveness and loving kindness.

I once started a thread called emotion is the path.  I think it’s very good that you are feeling these things.  Generally the advice would be to continue whatever practice you were doing and allow these things to emerge without indulging in them or suppressing them.  Watch and learn.  If they are very strong or overwhelming you can probe the feeling and let the memories and associations unfold, without judgement , with interest, and to educate you.

ok i think i should show patience with the progress. i feel impatience and think i should look for other practices. but i actually know that the practice i found is already powerful

Do you mean like Zi Fa Gong(spontaneous movements)?

Or just contemplate as these sensations arise and don't judge?

I  resonate with what you shared about forgiveness and loving-kindness.
In Spring Forest Qigong, we see emotions as energies that directly affect our organs. For example, anger can put strain on the liver, and the liver is also connected with the eyes. I’ve come to see how much unprocessed anger can weigh on my system.

 

What  i want to focus on is that the healing vibration for the liver is joy. So when I feel anger—whether toward a person or toward a situation—my goal is: not to deny the anger, but to gently bring in the energy of joy at the same time. It’s not always about the person who hurt me, because sometimes the trigger is simply life circumstances. But in either case, if I can allow myself to think of the situation while holding even a small spark of joy within, it starts to shift the energy.

The key for me is realizing that I can’t always change what’s outside, but I can cultivate what’s inside. When I let the vibration of joy move through me, it feels like my liver and my whole system can breathe again.
