How to Manage Anger?

Imagine a  life where there is no anger,  no frustration  or irritation.  Imagine a life  in which you are calm, happy and contended.  Now imagine  that life has already started. What makes us stop from  feeling good ? Are the circumstances always exterior or can you control some part of them?   For most of us,  anger drives us into  territories which cause regret.  Broken relationships,  grudges and feelings of resentment  are just one of the few ways   in which anger gets expressed.
So how do you manage something that has become such an integral part of your life?  How do you let go ?  I have researched and found some  Anger Management techniques  that may help.  You may take note of them try then what wine time you find the anger management  method that is perfect for you.

  1. Manage Anger #1: Act, not react. This anger control tool emphasizes the importance of reducing the frequency of thoughts so that the individual gets enough time to pass that critical time period (usually seconds or minutes) without reacting.
  2. Manage Anger #2 — Recognize your thoughts that cause stress. This anger management technique emphasizes the importance of understanding how stress underlies anger and how to reduce stress before it turns into anger. It helps to know what pushes your buttons and knowing your body’s anger signs. Stop and think! Decide what to do.
  3. Manage Anger #3— Develop Empathy. Learn to see things from other person’s perspective. Every individual being has his or her energy center and a set of habits/way to react. This anger management technique focuses on the relationship between empathy and anger control and how one can reduce his/her anger by learning how to see things from the perspective of others.
  4. Manage Anger #4 — Converse with yourself. Learn to talk to self, defeat negative self-talk. Give yourself titles that empower you to deal with anger more effectively.
  5. Manage Anger #5— Adjust Expectations. Anger is often triggered by a discrepancy between what we expect and what we get.  Learning to adjust those expectations—sometimes upward and other times downward—can help us cope with difficult situations or people or even cope with ourselves. Accept yourself/others as they are.
  6. Manage Anger #6 — Forgive. Let Go!  Resentment is a form of anger that does more damage to the holder than the offender.  Making a decision to “let go” (while still protecting ourselves) is often a process of forgiveness—or at least acceptance—and a major step toward anger control. Don’t hold on to your anger. Find ways to let it go. Talk about hurt and angry feelings. Look for someone to discuss your anger.
  7. Manage Anger #7 — Move away physically.  This anger control technique consists of removing yourself from the situation and taking a temporary “time-out” while sticking to some basic rules that are described.
Does this work for you? Do you have  something that you would like to add to this list?  Please comment below and I will be happy to make your suggestions a part of my life too.

Demystifying The 4:00 am Morning Routine

What happens when you get up early? That’s a question I have researched many times. I like getting up early and knowing that it does good for my body & mood; I get that extra strength to keep this habit. In this article, I explore some of the deeper mysteries of how the mind works when it is activated earlier than usual. Hope you feel as inspired reading it as much as I loved writing it. Making the morning routine To those who can get up early without setting alarm, I say you are blessed. Not many have that much of control over the self. To me, the greatest thing that made me develop this habit was reframing my idea of it. I had tried everything. From putting up a running gear in bed for the morning to setting puzzles as the alarm on the phone, I did it all. Some days I got up before the alarm even rang, but other days were a pain. I slogged out of bed, put down the alarm, and slept again. The intoxicating morning sleep had me in its ever-long grasps. Every night I wo

Behaviors That Help Develop Personal Accountability

Embarking on a journey towards personal accountability involves a fusion of ancient wisdom and modern psychology. Research illuminates the transformative impact of spirituality and meditation , guiding individuals toward heightened self-awareness and moral clarity. Research underscores the role of specific behaviors in personal accountability (Johnson & Brown, 2019). Engaging in continuous self-reflection and goal-setting fosters personal growth (Williams et al., 2020). Additionally, accountability is cultivated through transparent communication and a commitment to ethical decision-making (Smith, 2018). By intertwining the practices mentioned in these research papers with stress management techniques, individuals forge a resilient mindset, enabling them to navigate challenges with composure.
