Update: This post has been updated with illustrations by @Rroco88. This post is currently a bit chaotic. It will be linked here as soon as possible, and will be available in Thoth's Library.
The poses here benefit the Base/Root chakra, if you feel you need extra grounding or stability in your life. Skip ahead to the part titled “Asanas”, and you can also do vibrations for your base chakra during, or after, doing the asanas.
Please note, yoga asanas are best performed under the guidance of a certified teacher. You can bring the list given at the end to a yoga studio and ask for correct instruction, if possible. Consult a health care provider if you have any injuries.
We are not new-agers or xians, we know that anger and hatred is perfectly natural and to be utilized at certain times (revenge rituals, Ritual’s, etc). However, a lot of people have repressed anger that is debilitating, and can interfere with many areas in life and keep one from advancing. This yoga sequence can help to remove it so anyone suffering from repressed rage can grow and advance, and achieve peace and serenity.
Anger is from the Base chakra and stores in the side extensions, the hip chakras. Yoga asanas that specifically target opening the hip area releases and removes built up anger, and combining it with cleaning the Base chakra and extensions is the goal here.
This is not necessarily to be done as a 40-day working, as not everything needs that. This is to be done whenever you feel the need to do it. Maybe only once a week or month, maybe daily for a while, listen to your inner Self and decide. You can do a relating affirmation daily for 40 days, but some yoga asanas can cause injury if done to the maximum every day. Always be careful.
Method: For each asana, breath deeply and be in a relaxed state, do not strain. Visualize white-gold light cleansing your Base chakra and side extensions (in the hip area). If you can’t yet visualize well, simply direct the energy to the approximate area, your pelvic region and hips, like a sun lighting up the entire area. As you inhale, visualize it growing brighter, as you exhale, feel/sense anger and rage being safely released. You can also visualize it as waves of light washing over your entire pelvic region.
At the end of the session, you can re-do any pose again if you want to. There is a saying in yoga: sometimes it is easier to do the pose the second time around, as you have already opened your body in this particular way.
When you are finished, lie down in corpse pose or comfortably on your bed or yoga mat. Visualize yourself engulfed in white-gold light, or gold, whatever you feel is best for you. Affirm something along the lines of “I am now releasing any and all repressed anger and rage, in a healthy manner for me. I am free to be calm and serene, in the best possible way for me”.
Asanas: To be preferably done in the order shown, as each pose prepares for the later, deeper ones. Hold for as little or as long as is comfortable, and know that in time, each one will be easier to perform. And don’t worry if it’s not perfect, it’s called a yoga practice. Many asanas can use a prop, such as a pillow or book, to make it more accessible.
The reason I found short instructional videos in addition to pictures is because you can’t understand how to do the pose just by looking at a picture and trying to copy it. There’s more to it than that. My apologies for not selecting potentially better aka "perfect" pictures and videos, I've been at this for a while already.
Happy baby, optional to warm up the hips, and ease into a yoga practice as it begins by lying on the back. You can gently move your legs around, and rock around a bit on your back to warm up the back and lower body.
Baddha Konasana (Bound angle). You can keep your hands right behind your hips to straighten your posture, this may be easier to do. The focus is to feel the hips open up. I personally prefer to keep my hands behind my hips with arms straight and chest lifted.
Easy pose leaning forward, basically sitting cross-legged but with your legs not actually crossed, one a bit more in front of the other. Start in the first picture and then lean forward, relax the hips (do not clench the glutes or other areas), place your hands on the floor in front for stability. Walk your hands forward more to deepen the stretch. Similar to the second picture shown, which is is more advanced. Do this on both sides.
Upavistha Konasana (Wide angle seated forward bend). Like in the previous pose, place hands on floor and walk them forward, leaning forward more, to deepen the stretch.
Malasana, you can have your hands in Saturn/Base mudra instead of prayer mudra. You can have a pillow or rolled up towel under your heels if they don't touch the ground.
Low lunge, stretches the front of the hip and thigh of the back leg, allowing for a deeper release of the hip. Do this and all other asanas after this one on both sides (one leg in front, then switch to the other leg). You can keep your hands on the bent knee for stability, there is no need to raise them up.
Lizard, don't worry if you can't get all the way down. Stay up on your hands with arms straight if needed.

Pigeon, there are a few variations, including seated pigeon (easier). Make sure to keep the front foot flexed, to protect the knee joint.

Seated pigeon, keep the foot that is on the other knee flexed, to protect the knee joint.

Eye of the needle, make sure to keep the foot that is on the other knee flexed, to protect the knee joint

These next ones really release the hips, and you might even experience bliss in the Crown chakra from them as previously stagnant energy pathways open up.
Gomukhasana, just do the leg part and leave out the arm/shoulder part if you don’t want to do it.

It might be easier to do it while reclined:
Half lord of the fishes, you can ignore the twisting part and just focus on the leg part, and feel the release in each hip. You can place your arm around your bent knee, instead of having the forearm raised.

Reclined twist, you can have the bottom leg straight instead of bent, do whichever is more accessible to you.
There are actually a lot of video classes (10+ minutes long sequences), just type in “yoga for opening hips” and see if any stand out to you. If anyone knows of other asanas I have not mentioned, feel free to list them. I tried to keep this simple and easy and not overwhelming.
