Steps To Help Deal With Your Temper When It Flares

Are you short tempered? Have you been flipping off at people lately? Don't worry, there is a way out and solution to every problem. We have listed few ways you can calm yourself down but you have to do it religiously to see the effect:

1. If you feel your temper slowly rising, remove yourself from the situation completely. Take a deep breath and count slowly. This will stop you from reacting in an irrational manner.

2. Don't carry your anger around. If you dislike your job, go to the gym or to the library before you go home from work. Take a little bit of time to let the anger pass so that the rest of your day doesn't suffer.

3. Try keeping a journal of your moods over a two week period. Look out for times you have become aggravated, and times you have remained calm.
When you become angry, try visualizing a place where you feel happy and calm. Take deep breaths, and repeat a word or phrase in your mind as you envision the place.

4. Exercise in itself can be a great stress reliever, as your body releases endorphins when you walk. Remove yourself from the situation that is biting at you, take a walk and clear your mind.

5. Try joining a class where you will have the opportunity to vent and express your anger through a different method.

6. Sometimes people can make a stressful conversation even more stressful by having a negative outlook. Sometimes you have every right to be annoyed, but always try looking at the issue through another perspective.

7. If your temper rises mostly with the same individual, then try speaking to them differently to help make your point. Discuss your feelings, rather than putting the other person down.

8. Don’t hold grudges. It will make your life harder on a day-to-day basis. Focus on the good things you have in life and losen that unnecessary burden.
Listen to music during stressful times or while you do unpleasant tasks. This can help de-stress.
