Anger Management: 10 Ways to stay calm in your workplace Anger Management: 10 Ways to stay calm in your workplace Anger is a natural human emotion that we all go through at some point or the other. But what if something at work threatens to push you over the edge? Think about it. You have spent days preparing for a crucial meeting, but your customer is belligerent and dismisses everything you say. Or you are summoned to the manager's office and scolded for something you didn't do. Or you are trying to work out a deal with a vendor who refuses to acknowledge that their service was subpar. Alternatively, your project may go awry at the eleventh hour, and you will be held responsible. Inside, your blood pressure is increasing, and you are fighting the want to yell or strike something, which obviously is not the right way to overcome your anger. So, how do you control your anger? How can you manage your emotions to work for you and the people around you? Here are 10 ways that can help you to stay calm. 1.Take a deep breath as you count to ten: The goal of this exercise is to resist pulling the trigger. Rather than flying off the handle everyone what's on your mind, make a conscious effort to keep a safe distance from the cliff. Counting to ten and focusing breathing is a tried-and- tested technique reduce your heartbeat and gives you time to reflect on the situation so that you can think before you react. 2.Speak with a person you can rely on: Discuss the issue with someone whose perspective you respect, who is familiar with the work environment, and whom you trust. Venting is therapeutic and telling someone else about your experience may help you put things in perspective. Your confidante will sympathize with you, act like your sounding board, and may even provide options you may not have considered. 3.Could you take a note of it but not email it to me?: Write down what you plan to say if you can't stop yourself from expressing your destructive emotions. You'll feel a lot better when and telling on your mindfulness that helps
your demons have been exorcised in this way, whether you scribble your heartfelt view on a sheet of paper or hammer out an honest email. You must not, however, submit your mail under any circumstances. File it for later, reread it when you are more relaxed, and delete it forever. 4.Change the scene: To de-stress, you may need to obtain some fresh air to put some physical distance between yourself and the problem. To calm down and gain mental clarity, go for a quick walk, have lunch outside, or sit quietly. Things won't seem nearly as intense when you get back to your desk. 5.Don't try to stop yourself from feeling what you are feeling: When we are angry, we're prone to rationalize, blame others, or attempt to de-escalate the situation. Rather than leaping to conclusions, realize that your anger is normal and understandable. Anger is ingrained in our DNA. It is how we protect ourselves from dangers and threats. Understand that avoiding irritation will not help you the next time you are upset. You just need to learn to deal with the issue. 6.It is time to disrupt: If you are about to lose your cool, the first thing you need to do is find a way to break the habitual thought cycle that has been set in motion. Take a stroll, step away from your workstation to call a friend, or take a few deep breaths to separate from the situation. Another strategy to help you handle your anger in the long-run is to practice visualizations. Imagine what you want and it will eventually happen. 7.Find out what triggers you: To avoid a full-fledged meltdown, you must first figure out who and what gets you angry. When you are mad, pay attention to the situation and the people around you to better predict and manage your reactions in the future. 8.Use caution when using words: When you decide to tackle the circumstance that has you furious, make sure you have spent time acknowledging and articulating your sentiments first. Emotional labeling is essential because it can help you communicate your feelings, opinions, and desires more effectively. Speak with your supervisor or whoever is causing you distress in the way they prefer. 9.Instead of focusing on the issue, concentrate on the solution: While it is tempting to linger on what's making you angry—and it can feel reassuring at first—doing so won't help you in the long run. Ruminating is harmful because it diverts time and mental resources from problem-solving and keeps you engaged in negative emotions. Instead, concentrate on what you can learn from the experience to move on positively. 10.Give yourself a reward: Managing your anger is a significant personal accomplishment, and you should be proud of yourself every time you avoid an angry outburst. Give yourself some self-love to recognize that you are learning to manage your negative emotions. It's time for a special treat! When you feel that all these solutions are not working for you, then may be the problem is deeper. In such a situation, seek professional help in the form of counselling, anger management classes or
therapy. These options help you learn the tools and tricks to control your anger and improve quality of life. Athena Behavioral Health is a mental health treatment center.
