Ep 52: Breaking Free From Anger ft. Sylvia Bay

πŸ”₯ Breaking Free from Anger: The Mindful Way πŸ”₯

Ever felt like anger has a mind of its own? 😀 This podcast dives into the art of releasing that tension and embracing compassion instead! Through Buddhist insights on Anattā (or "non-self"), we learn that anger isn’t all in our controlβ€”it’s part of our conditioned patterns. πŸŒ€ So, how do we rewire that? With the 3-step approach: Avoid evil, Do good, Purify the mind. πŸ™βœ¨ Practicing kindness regularly, even when it’s tough, eventually turns compassion into a reflex. πŸ’ž

🌱 Remember: It’s a journey, but the rewards? Pure inner peace!
