Get Rid of Anger and Frustration with Sun Salutations

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

“When angry, count four. When very angry, swear.” Mark Twain

We, women are full of emotions, aren’t we? Stress causes most of imbalances in our life and body which lead to weight gain, high blood pressure, headaches and migraines, heart disease and other health disorders. Well, ladies, remember: to feel and look fabulous we need to feel balanced.

But sometimes it is so difficult for us to manage our anger or frustration and eventually let it go. What are you doing while you are angry or feel frustrated? Get really frustrated, erratic, unpredictable? Or feel depressed, miserable, withdrawn? Unfortunately, stress easily turns into anger, and we need to learn how to destress before anger might change into aggression.

“Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion . . . . I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.“~Kurt Vonnegut

Try a simple Sun Salutation sequence to help you get back in balance if you feel upset, aggravated or irritated. Repeat it for 10 minutes when you are angry, or even maybe start your day with 10 minutes of Sun Salutation in the morning as a stress relief technique. It will help you feel and look fabulous all day long.

“When anger rises, think of the consequences.” Confucius

Nowadays, we live in a very exciting but complex time,

Full of stress, catastrophes, poverty, and crime.

We need more smiles, touches and more fun,

To let our anger, stress and frustration go away.

Three hugs and a smile is not too much to ask,

Even if sometimes it feels like an impossible task.

Three hugs to be touched and held – that’s all we need

To hold hands, feel in need isn’t difficult indeed.

Do We Always Take Everything for Granted?

Monday, October 20th, 2008

Yesterday I was talking to my former client and now dear friend, let’s say, her name is Kathy. A couple of days ago she came back from Europe, where she was visiting her mother while introducing her new husband. Yes, Kathy is a newlywed (thanks to my successful coaching), and deeply in love with her husband. So she told me that her mother was surprised and even annoyed with her daughter kissing her husband from time to time in public. She even asked her once or twice, why she was paying so much attention to him, he has been already her husband anyway, so why bother kissing him. My friend didn’t get into argument, trying to explain that a happy and healthy relationship takes a lot of work. She knew already that it was wasting of time to argue with her mother or discuss something she knew nothing about.

Well, Kathy was smart enough to let it go until … she came back and called me. She cannot understand why her mother has everything taken for granted, why she doesn’t realize that a good relationship is a hard work (well, we know that it takes two to be happy, and in this case they both do their best).

I am also wondering why is that? Why we don’t appreciate what we have until a wake-up call, until something changes, disappear or lost for good? I mean not only our relationship or marriage but also children and parents, our health, our career, our friends…Does it have anything to do with our ancestors, culture, environment? Or is it a human nature? Maybe if we appreciate a little bit more what we already have, we would be happier, less depressed, stressed out or angry?

Does it sound familiar? What do you think?

P.S. Kiwi and papaya are my favorite fruits.

Kiwi has more vitamin C than orange.

Papaya is rich in beta-carotene and fiber.

The most important is that they can make great homemade facials: use mashed kiwi with honey when you need a quick face lift; use mashed papaya to exfoliate.
