“For every minute you are angry, you lose sixty seconds of happiness.”
This is very well versed statement from ancient times. People from ancient times believe that anger is the root cause of all problems. Getting angry is not bad but it need to be given a proper direction. When any emotion follows a wrong direction it always misleads a person and lands them in mess.
When a person usually gets angry he or she don’t even realize the words they say but after few moments they do regret for their behavior. Every time your anger can’t be valid. And to clarify anger is not a emotion that can be eradicated forever. Emotions never disappear from our brains they always exist but yes you can have control on your anger. No one in the world will then try to rule your brain. Anger when misleads creates hatred. And I guess hate is very strong emotions. It actually destroys everything that you love. Always remember,
“When you love someone that person rules your heart and when you hate someone that person rules your brain”
And nothing is more miserable when some one starts ruling your brain. For that matter even your heart but ruling heart creates a wonderful world. You should be the only one who will rule your heart and brain. Life is very simple if people follow simple rules of life. We unnecessarily complicate the things and say that life is very hard to survive. I simply deny it, Stay Healthy, Keep Smiling, Sleep Well and Think Good… four simple ways to llive a happy life.

- Then at very first rest your right foot on top of your left thigh.
- Secondly, compress your knees nearer to each other and extend your thighs high up straight.
- Then hold on to the pose for approximately one minute and keep breathing deeply while taking deep exhalation, Stretch your thighs backwards as much as you can.

As the individual doesn’t allow himself to bend forward. And this it is very necessary to curb the ego and it is can be attained by the means of Yoga.
As, you improve while practicing the yoga the space between forehead and floor starts shrinking. This all pose are amazing for anger management. Regular practice of yoga makes you more humble and down to earth. And especially all the pose that involve forwards bending where you touch the floor with a forehead work amazingly in controlling anger.

First of all you have to sit in Vajrasana which is also known as thunderbolt position. You need to sit on your haunches in this position with feet resting out and your posterior lying on heels.

This yoga helps a lot for back and blood pressure troubles. Shashankasana is also a great for anti-ageing asana it provides a glow to the skin because of increased circulation in the head region. A cooling pose, it speeds up the meditative mood.
There are many who have succeeded in gaining control over anger through yoga. People usually in attempt of quick recovery just pop in some pills but don’t believe in traditional formulas. I can actually assure you that follow it regularly with pure heart and have patience.
