Traditional medicine has long believed that aggression is caused by an imbalance in the energy of the body and mind. This imbalance is said to be due to a disruption in the flow of Qi, or life force energy, throughout the body. This can manifest itself in angry outbursts, hostility, violence, or even passive-aggressive behavior. Traditional treatments have focused on restoring balance to the body and mind, to help reduce aggression. One method used to alleviate aggression is dietary changes and herbs. Several medicinal herbs have calming and grounding effects, like chamomile, lavender, valerian root, and skullcap. Foods high in B-vitamins, such as beans, leafy greens, and whole grains, can help reduce stress levels. Foods rich in zinc, such as nuts, beef, and oysters, can help reduce the intensity of aggressive outbursts. Exercise is considered another important part of traditional medicine for aggression. Exercise has a calming effect and has been shown to reduce stress and tension in the body. Additionally, exercise can help to release positive endorphins, which can help to improve mood. Acupuncture is another time-tested technique used to alleviate aggression. Inserting needles into specific locations on the body helps to unblock stagnant energy, allowing for the free flow of Qi. This situation also helps to restore the balance of energy in the body. Meditation and mindfulness have been used for centuries to calm the mind and heal the body. Taking a few minutes each day to sit in a quiet space and focus on your breath can have profound effects on your mood. It can help to reduce stress and negative emotions, making it easier to manage aggression. Finally, psychotherapy can be helpful for people struggling with aggression. Talking about difficult feelings with a therapist can often help you to gain insight into the root cause of your aggression and can help you to develop more effective coping strategies for dealing with it. Traditional medicine takes a holistic approach to dealing with aggression. By addressing the physical, emotional, and mental aspects of the condition, it can help one manage and reduce feelings of aggression and can aid in restoring a balanced sense of wellbeing.
