 Anger Management: 10 Tips for Managing Anger

 

Controlling for a tantrum can be difficult. Simple anger management tips can be used by taking the time to use first-person statements to keep it under control.

Anger Management

 

Do you get angry when someone gets in your way in traffic? Does your blood pressure go up when your child refuses to follow orders? Anger is normal and can even be a healthy feeling, but it is important to deal with it in a positive way. Uncontrollable anger can harm your health and relationships.

 

Are you ready to control your anger? Start by thinking of these 10 anger management tips

 

1. Think before you speak

During a tantrum, it's easy to say something that you regret later. Wait a few moments to collect your thoughts before saying something, and have other participants in the same situation do the same.

 

2. Once you have calmed down a bit, express your anger

Once you are thinking clearly, express your frustration in an assertive but non-confrontational way. Express your fears and needs directly without hurting others or trying to control them.

 

3. Get some exercise

Physical activity can help reduce stress that can make you angry. If you feel your anger escalating, take a brisk walk or run, or take time to do other enjoyable physical activities.

 

4. Take a break

The breaks aren't just for kids. Take short breaks during times of the day that seem stressful. A few minutes of quiet can help you feel better and prepare you to deal with what is to come without getting upset or angry.

 

5. Identify possible solutions

Instead of focusing on what made you angry, work on the problem you are facing. Is your child's messy room irritating you? Close the door. Is your husband or wife late for dinner every night? Schedule late night meals or agree to eat only a few times a week. Remember that anger will not solve anything and can only make it worse.

 

6. Stick to "I" statements

To avoid criticism or blame, which only increases stress, use "I" statements to describe the problem. Be respectful and specific. For example, say, "It bothers me that you left the table without offering to help carry the dishes" instead of "You never do housework."

 

7. Don't hold a grudge

Tolerance is a powerful tool. If you allow anger and other negative emotions to drive out positive emotions, you may find yourself engulfed in bitterness or injustice. But if you can forgive someone who angered you, you can both learn from the situation and strengthen your relationship.

 

8. Use humor to relieve stress

Taking things would just ease the tension. Use humor to help you deal with your anger and possibly any unrealistic expectations you have about how things should be. However, avoid sarcasm - it can hurt feelings and make things worse.

 

9. Practice relaxation skills

When angry, use relaxation skills. Do deep breathing exercises, visualize a relaxing scene, or repeat soothing words or phrases like "Be nice to yourself." You can also listen to music, keep a journal, do some yoga poses, anything you can do to encourage relaxation.

 

10. Know when to ask for help
