flower anger walking-meditation
Your anger is like a flower. In the beginning you may not understand the nature of your anger, or why it has come up. But if you know how to embrace it with the energy of mindfulness, it will begin to open.

After ten or twenty minutes your anger will have to open herself to you, and suddenly, you will see the true nature of your anger.
