This ritual has to do with releasing or cleansing angry energy from your body

Here is your Daily Feng Shui Tip by Ellen Whitehurst for Thursday, September 23

I often come across ancient forms of healing the body from negative emotions and one such Russian tradition has been so useful that I'm happy to share it with you on today's 'Innergize Day.' This ritual has to do with releasing or cleansing angry energy from your body. Anger usually exhibits itself in an excess of the color red in the astral or aural body of the person holding on to it. Practice this exercise in the early morning. You should need no more than five or ten minutes to get the big benefits it promises. Remember to open a window at least a 30 minutes before starting any exercise that involves exorcising negativity so that the energy in the room is well aired and open. For this release you'll need only a wet towel and a bowl. Make sure the towel is thoroughly soaked and place it in the bowl. Sit straight with the bowl positioned between your feet on the floor. Breathe slowly and calmly through the nose, holding your breath in the belly for a few seconds before exhaling and chanting the word 'oh' with the tip of your tongue resting against the back of your top teeth. Once you feel focused and calm take the wet towel, and with your legs about shoulder width apart, your back softly rounded and your stomach held in tight, hold your arms straight out with the palms facing upward. Lay the towel across the fingers of your upturned hands and visualize it turning a deep crimson red. Take a deep breath in through the nose and hold it. Squeeze your stomach hard and wring out the towel, visualizing that you're wringing out all the red color into the bowl below. Repeat this entire exercise for as long as it takes to get every last bit of red into the bowl. You'll also feel a sense of lightness and relief. You aren't just wringing out water but all the negative emotions that you have stored on a cellular and organic level. When you feel ready, give yourself a good stretch and go about your now highly positive and 'Innergized' day!
