Neuroticism is one of the big-five personality trait. Personality traits aren’t things to be managed moment to moment.
You generally want to minimize stress and maximize output. Instead of thinking “It would be good to be more neurotic” it would be better to go “I need more goals that I pursue that I care about”.
Sorry, I meant the feelings that are more prevalent among more neurotic people, like “anxiety, worry, fear, anger, frustration, envy, jealousy, guilt, depressed mood, and loneliness” (list taken from Wikipedia).

I do think that there are seldom cases where I would tell someone “be more angry”. I might however say:
Don’t withdraw yourself from situation that might produce anger.
Don’t suppress your anger
Have personal boundaries (which can produce anger when they are violated)
Those suggestion might lead to a person feeling angry more often but they have a different focus.
