What is something that makes you angry?

​ Recognize Anger Early

If you're yelling it's probably too late.

Learn your warning signs so that when you're beginning to feel angry (i.e. balling fists, heat rising to skin, shaking, etc.) you can more easily

control your reactions.

Visualization

Imagine a relaxing situation. What do you see, smell, hear, feel, or taste? Maybe you're on a beach with the waves crashing or riding

your bike into the sunset--our imaginations are very powerful!

Think of the Consequences

What will be the outcome of your next anger-fueled action? Will arguing convince the other person you're right or just lead to you

feeling more frustrated? Will you be happier and more resolved after an argument/confrontation?
