Shame is internalized anger
Shame is internalized anger.
What Scott says
shame is internalized anger. So the next piece for me is then I become angry at either the person that taught me to shame myself, right? Or at all of those accumulated learnings of shame, right? So then I become angry, and that anger allows me to push out from the shame, meaning shame is internalized anger.
And so we need to externalize that anger. Now, I don't mean you should yell at someone or attack someone or anything like that. What I mean is that anger is literally a force of energy that's gotten turned inside in our body. It comes up our body and then we say no to it.
Anger is not allowed. It turns in and then it self-attacks and that's shame. Then we have that feeling of smallness and heaviness and downward energy and loss of meaning. We need to externalize that anger.
Find a focus, a focal point for your anger, right? And then allow yourself to be angry. So now the anger has a focal point. I'm angry at the people that bullied me, that told me I was I.
was stupid when I was five years old, when eight years old I'm angry that my parents, you know, forced me to do all these clubs or sports they didn't want to do and I was made fun of in them and I felt disincluded. For whatever reason, could be anything, right? And we have an external movement. We have an external direction.
Now the anger is moving.
