Another technique - talk to the angry self. You can do voice dialogue, in which you have two chairs - one for your everyday self and one for your angry self. Let yourself embody each in it's own chair and ask questions to the Angry self, such as:
-What are your needs?
-What are you trying to tell me?
-What value do you bring me?
-How can I work to integrate you in my life?
If the chair voice dialogue thing is too weird from you, another good method is non-dominant hand journaling. Let your dominant writing hand be your everyday self and ask the questions. Your non-dominant hand will be your angry self. This works well because the non-dominant hand will be using the untapped parts of your brain. Your critical mind will be focusing on getting the non-dominant hand to write, which will leave the space open for the untapped angry part to easily flow through. This method works well for dialoguing with any untapped part. |
