Angry

Angry: 

When feelings of anger arise, it can be helpful to have some positive affirmations on hand to assist in processing and moving through those challenging emotions in a healthy way. 

Rather than suppressing anger or lashing out, try repeating calming mantras to yourself such as 

"I acknowledge my anger and accept what I'm feeling, but I can respond calmly and thoughtfully." 

Remind yourself that while justified, anger is a passing emotion - "This anger is temporary; I can release it and find peace." 

Affirm your resilience with statements like 

"I am strong enough to experience this anger without letting it control me or my actions." 

Above all, be kind and patient with yourself as you work through difficult feelings. 

Positive self-talk such as 

"I'm doing the best I can and I'm proud of myself for managing my anger mindfully" can provide much-needed encouragement and validation. 

With practice, these affirmations can become powerful tools in developing healthy coping mechanisms and emotional regulation skills to navigate anger and other intense emotions. 

I will pause until I am able to think clearly so I can respond rationally instead of reacting.
