Resentment, for me, has always been something to hold on to, an underlying reason to be angry, that kind of ‘earth’s crust’ of emotion - everything grows out of it. In the soil of resentment I can grow the flowers of injustice, the anger of unfairness, and, ultimately, the flowering of victimhood. Because it’s such a core emotion for me, I know that I need to express the seed of my anger before it takes root and grows into resentment. Expressing anger when it happens isn’t a scary thing, it’s a small thing. Identify it, express it, let it go. Easy.

However, before I realized this simple technique, I stuffed down anger because I was afraid of it. Plus girls don’t get mad, right? Well, now, all up in my feminine rage, I can say, let it go. Don’t stuff it down. Anger is not scary, it’s normal and it’s not going to overtake you. Let’s get our stones, and, as they say, let that shit go.

I choose to fill my world with joy.

Take a deep breath.

Place your rock under the painting. Say:

I release any brain patterning,

subconscious or conscious thought,

or energetic resonance to the

idea of holding on to resentments about

People, places, circumstances,

Or situations. I no longer hold onto

Resentment in my body or in my

Life. I forgive and release the past so I can

more fully take part in my present.

Note: If this doesn’t resonate with you, or you feel like there’s more there, partake in some movement of your anger by moving your physical body, or doing some kind of ritual or journaling, or therapy to release it.
