Text by Deborah Lynne Carlton

At some point in life, we all experience anger, be it in response to a perceived injustice, a physical injury, the threat of loss, getting cut off in traffic, emotional imprinting from childhood years or simply yelling at a dysfunctional computer out of frustration. But if we get stuck in anger where it becomes our primary response to life, this can become a rut that is hard to crawl out of; driving away people we love or people we’d like to know and limiting career options and even compromising health.
Understanding anger and its useful roll as a “signal emotion” and growth opportunity is the first step in getting out of the rut. Essential oils offer wonderful support in clearing the emotional pattern of anger, regardless of how deep it may presently imprinted.
First and foremost, Anger is a contractive emotion based upon fear. Anger and Rage literally weaken the heart and endanger your life. Anger is vibrationally a lower emotion and is expressed through the root chakra, the color is red. However, Anger has its place and exists for good reason:
-
When used consciously, Anger functions as a red flag, indicating those places where we are either asking for love, or failing to love ourselves in some way.
-
A useful signal to make decisions that honor us, rather than compromise our hearts, Anger signals a call to higher action.
- If you feel stuck in Anger, what decisions have you been avoiding?
- What steps can you take today?
- If Anger is triggered by feeling judged or disrespected by others, in what ways do you judge or disrespect yourself?
Anger Is Self-Perpetuating And Addictive. What function does anger play in your life? Change, however longed for, can be frightening. What important life path decisions and changes do we avoid by staying with the familiar frequency of anger?
The Physical Anchor Of Anger Is The Liver. The liver also anchors Rage, Addiction, Depression and Allergies. The liver is our emotional, physical (immune/blood) and mental filter. When overwhelmed with emotion, all of these functions can be severely compromised. Thus addressing liver health and toxicity may be useful in the healing of addiction. A good place to begin is by clearing the emotional congestion of Anger in the liver.
Caroline Mein’s book, “Releasing Emotional Patterns with Essential Oils,” is an excellent resource for those interested in taking a proactive role in their personal emotional freedom. Following is tool for working with issues around Anger.
1. Identify and FEEL the emotion ANGER.
2. Deeply inhale the blend “PURIFICATION” taking it into all of your cells.
3. Feel the OTHER SIDE of the emotion (My Direction is Clear)
4. Apply 1 drop of PURIFICATION to the LIVER Alarm Point, (nipple of breast or on hand and feet liver reflex points) plus top of head, forehead and base of cranium.
5. Focus on the statement, “My direction is clear.”
6. If desired, say the statement until something shifts and you feel it.
7. Repeat process as often as useful. If feelings of Anger is deeply rooted, that may be 7 times a day for 3 weeks, if that is what it takes to clear the emotion from your life.
The Blend of Purification is also useful in cleansing and disinfecting the air and neutralizing mildew, cigarette smoke and disagreeable odors. It disinfects and cleanses cuts, scrapes and bits from spider, bee, hornet and wasps, essentially neutralizing the venom. EODR, 3rd Edition
