Here are a few things to do when you or a loved one can start feeling angry:
- Sing along (yes, outloud!) to your favorite song
- Go to the batting cages (or golfing range)
- Draw or paint what your anger looks like (or feels like)
- Seek out someone (or a pet) to give you a hug
- Count to 10
- Go for a run
- Call a friend who you can talk to (vent)
- Throw ice up against a brick wall (or down at the grown on your driveway or sidewalk)
- Garden (pull weeds, plant things, rake leaves up)
- Journal
- Take your dog for a walk (or neighbors dog!)
