I think, if you are clear about managing your anger and reducing the intensity of the effects of anger, then other emotions can be managed too.
Expressing is the nature of every species. Humans having a highly active brain than others, are expected to express more than other species.
Not expressing or sharing causes a lot of mental and physical problems. Venting out is important at the right time. Expressing what you feel will make sure you never have mental health issues.
When we try to suppress our emotions and keep them to ourselves, what actually happens is that we try to resist ourselves, resist the natural human tendency, and our brain gets the wrong message which in turn makes our intelligence to act against us. Our thoughts become our enemy. And that the last thing we would want.
Expressing emotions in a peaceful, healthy way can help you to relax and get free of acute anxiety. If you think you cannot express it to anyone in particular, or if you are guilty, ashamed, shy, embarrassed, it is always a good idea to see a psychologist or counsellor to share your thoughts and emotional turmoil.
THEREFORE, EXPRESSING EMOTIONS IS A NATURAL TENDENCY AND IT SHOULD NOT BE SUPPRESSED OR IT CAN LEAD TO ANXIETY DISORDERS, FEARS, PHOBIAS AND CLINICAL DEPRESSION.
If you meditate regularly, you will start having a control over your mind and body. When you have control over your mind, you have control over your thoughts. Meditation, in fact, will make you empathetic and sensitive in understanding human emotions and be more compassionate.
