Hi fearlessgara! There several ways in order for us to stay calm even in difficult or stressful situations. If time and situation permits, take a walk. Just leave the place for a while. Do some other things so that your focus will be removed from the cause of the problem. Personally, myLot is the place that I turned to whenever I have problems or things are seems to be stressful.

By simply accepting the present feeling of anger and merely learning to accept things that you cannot go in your favor. I avoid getting into discussions with people that are narrow minded and selfish. Plus by trying to relax your mind and thinking positive.

Anger like any other of the human emotions is healthy, providing we know how to control it, I use my anger at the gym, and I find exercise will burn off anger and frustration. After a rigid 90 minute work out I feel so much better and any anger I felt has dissipated. Yesterday I was very angry at my father, so I took myself to the gym and afterwards felt great. For me exercise works every time. Either that or take yourself away from the situation or person that is making you angry.

I listen to music, which makes me feel better. Also a good walk looking at my neighbors flowers helps me and I take a drink with me to enjoy while walking. Personally, I love dark chocolate, so a piece of chocolate after dinner would certainly we a great way to end the day.

I have been notorious for being short-tempered. And, they are right. I get angry so easily, even on very minor things. But, these days, I have been able to control my anger better, I would say. And, I think, practising meditation is helping a lot for that.

I usually try to think about something calming and soothing. Or like dig my fingers down to my palms... the nails may hurt a bit, but that kind of takes my attention away from the anger. Also, throughout the day, writing out what hurts you or squeezing a softer ball (in some places they are called calmnes sball or therapy ball in my country) can help a lot in releasing tension. But if someone has an unhealthy anger management issue, they should seek a psychologist.
