Recognize and deal with angry feelings.

It’s normal to feel angry from time to time. But when
we don’t channel those feelings productively, they can
spill over into other aspects of our life.
• Know the warning signs of anger in yourself so that
you’re able to control and manage your anger. These
include feeling frustrated, irritated, or annoyed;
clenching your fists; or muscle tension, especially in
your neck, back, or jaw.
• Take a slow, deep breath when you find yourself
getting angry. Count to five. Exhale. Repeat.
• Address problems early on so that they don’t worsen
and become harder to resolve.
• If you could use help managing angry feelings, or if
you are living with a person who gets angry often,
speak with your physician, a leader from your faith
community, or contact your EAP.
