Question


How to control /manage the mind when angry and lustful thoughts attack you very badly?

Answer


Anger is the negative emotion that hits the mind and body badly. To overcome the strong emotions, you have to do work on your mind thoughts lets reduce the frequency of thoughts through pranayama as adhi is the invitation of certain diseases. Yoga that helps to reduce mind fluctuations and relax. Here we work on our Manomaya Kosha:- Sit comfortably and practice conscious breathing, inhale, and exhale five to ten times. In conscious breathing, a person concentrates on a breathing pattern, inhales and bulges out the stomach like a balloon, and squeezes the stomach during exhale.

Practice Pranayama like anulom vilom, kapalabhati, and bhramari.

Practice meditation at least for 5 minutes and chanting OM. When you are peaceful from the inside, you will be treated the same way others.

Practice forward bending asanas like balasana, paschimottanasana; the spiritual significance of these asanas is bow down, which teaches us to become humble and egoless.

Thanks
