What is your ritual to calm your nerves down?

I'll go to somewhere else... (being away to the stressor would help a lot) then do some DEEP BREATHING (to release tension) then pray (to ask for help in calming myself) then TRUST HIM... and you'll see ANGER or FRUSTRATION disappears. :) I hope it could help you as well my friend. That's what works for me. Hope it will work for my dear friend here...YOU! God bless us all

its also I way which I also use with it I also try Yoga thanks for sharing

The English Tea Ceremony. The Method Firstly empty the kettle and clean it of any scale. Let the tap run and fill the kettle from fast running water. To the teapot, ceramic not metal, add one teaspoon of good tea, such as English Breakfast Blend to the pot for each cup and one additional measure. When the water has boiled pour into the pot from a height to ensure maximum aeration. Stir and cover the pot with a cosy, leave for 3 to 5 minutes. The room. Ensure you have a quiet room, with perhaps a slow ticking clock (Less than one tick a second) and birdsong. Arrange the curtains or blinds so that the room is darkish but if possible with some sunlight filtering through. Whilst you are waiting for the tea to brew you will begin to relax and unwind. Enjoying the tea. Serve the tea on a tray with a small jug of cold milk, heating milk changes its flavour. Also you will need some cups, saucers and tea spoons. The teaspoons are important even if, like me, you don't take sugar since they produce the correct noise against the cup and saucer. Pour the tea on from a height to ensure maximum aeration and add just a little milk and sugar if desired but only a very small amount. Beginners may take some 'McVities Rich tea biscuits or Digestives, a cucumber sandwich but should avoid items such as scones that may be enjoyed by those proficient in the art. You may talk about the weather but conversation should have long pauses for reflection. If done correctly this will produce perfect relaxation and clarity of mind. all the best urban

This subjects apts well for this situation since i'm really angry and frustrated now and i want to calm myself and so only i'm sitting right in front of the computer and getting me calmed down and the others ways in which i try to calm down is one as you said i will listen to music and the other would be breathing out from inside to outside in a forcefull way so that i will be able to calm down my nerves and i will be relaxed..this has been the best way that i have handled... Happy Mylotting

first to tell you i get angry not that often but if someone rags me to a very large extent or if the person abuses me without any reason then its for sure anyones nerves are gonna get pulled but i dont know how will i control my anger at that moment only a very good person can do it is the toughest way to control your anger and it is a fact that most of the people regrett about themselves being so much angry.i would just wait there and divert myself to any other stuff so that i would forget that i was being angry and i am sure this will help your way is also good but everything depends from person to person.

I'll take a warm bath, drink hot tea and lie down until my eyes get too heavy.
