> If you are a meditator, have you tried deconstructing the rage into physical sensations and energy, rather than "truth and justice", when it happens? Or is it just too overwhelming for that?Wow, sorry to interrupt but that is what I do, or rather overdo. I'm so good at it that I often have trouble figuring out what I'm feeling at all. So therapist will ask what I'm feeling right now, and I'll answer in terms of energy and sensations, and he'll patiently again explain the four basic feelings and tell me that what I'm describing is not a feeling. So I'll have to guess, because none of them seems right. It's irritating as heck.
Barbara Cat, I too hate it when man does not respect our fellow species and our earth. I get so sad driving by mountains or hills that are now just holes in the ground. There are parts of the beautiful state of Utah that just make me cry. (I used to visit family there frequently.)
That being said, I probably use the products that are taken out of the once beautiful hills everyday. And I live in an area once full of wildlife. I need to learn more about the environment so that I can make wiser choices, I think.
