There are many ways:
1. Take a deep breath and count to ten.
2. Determine what is making you angry and if it is a person then try writing them a letter telling them what they have done to make you mad.

Anger cannot be cooled down immediately. Its effect will be for some time. If you try to cool down during his anger, instead of stopping the anger it will be increased. Let it cool down on its own. Elders say anger is man's one of the worst enemies. To keep quite is a best way for cooling down the anger.

Answer 3

well there are many ways to cool down ones own anger. But let us first analyse anger itself. Anger is an emotion given to us by the process of evolution which helps us to fight and survive. Anger releases many hormones like adreniline, atropine, dopamine etc which prepare us to face any iminent threat to our well being. Thus it provides the necessary "josh" to fight. But "misplaced anger is what you should guard against. And for that, just do one mental exercise.Think in mind how did it matter when you were not there, and how will it matter when you will not be there? Think hard on this question, and believe me you will never have misplaced anger ever in your life.

I find alot of people are drawn to the energy of anger. It's like an emotional 'high'. Angry emotions are like a drug, sort of like adrenalin, which acts like a drug in our bodies. You may find that people who are angry are almost addicted to the emotional rush. It gives them a sense of power, a sense of being alive or in control.

Once a person realises that they thrive on the rush of becoming angry, they will catch themselves doing it. They will realise how often they become angry over the little things. Anything becomes an excuse to get that rush of emotion and get their blood pumping.

That person could also book themselves into classes like kick-boxing or another sort of physical sport where they can take out their aggressive feelings by physical exertion.

An angry person could also take a break from life. If they are in a situation that makes them angry, they should not stay there. Just leave for a bit and not think about it. Once they cool down, they will be able to see things more clearly.

Anger clouds our judgement and makes us react emotionally. So the best thing to do is to take control of our surroundings and just think about things and do things that make us peaceful

Anger is not a healthy emotion that's for sure. It has been known to make a person's body age much quicker than the normal rate and cause high blood pressure and even neurological disorders.

I know some people I wish could cool down!

Answer 5

Forgive yourself for what ever you 'think' is the cause of your anger!

You are only EVER in relation to your authentic self, if you feel angry then there is something about what you are looking at that you do not want to own in yourself.

The good news is that we are all ALL of it! And the even better news is that when you really look at what you once saw as wrong, you see that it was all an illusion anyway....

I hope this makes some sense.

An amazing book to deal with this easily is 'Dark side of the Light Chasers' by Debbie Ford.

Answer 6

Why do I get angry?
Because of my Ego--when people don't do as I wish or things don't go the way I want, I get ANGRY! But if I stop to think a little, and respect other people (They are entitled to their views and opinion too, just as I am), and have the maturity to understand that things will NOT always go MY way, then there would be no need to get angry!
Simple solution:
Slowly count TEN, before opening your mouth and showing anger. Gradually, over time, you will get better and better in letting go of your anger.

Answer 7

The moment you feel angry, go to a secluded place close your eyes, and count down from 10 to 1. Grabbing hold of either a tree trunk or even a stres ball helps. I know it works for me.

By the time you reach 1, your anger would have subsided. Even yelling out loud at this point helps destress.

Answer 8

There are actually courses and seminars that help people deal with their anger. These anger management classes will never be able to parallel the advice of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He has advised us to control our anger and actually recommended a series of actions to help us overcome the inclination to become angry. First, if one is standing, one should sit down. If you find yourself becoming angry about something and you are standing up, break the sequence of events and sit down instead of remaining standing. Seek refuge in Allah and also try to put into perspective what it is you are getting angry about before saying anything. Second, if we are sitting and we become angry, we are to lie down. It is also recommended that we make wudu( often translated as "ablution" is the act of washing parts of the body using clean water performed by Muslims, as part of the preparation for ritual worship, salah.) as this will help us to move away from the place of anger and freshen up.
You want to try your best to think before you speak or react. It seems that your thinking time is quite short and this leaves very little time between your experiencing a certain phenomenon and immediately reacting.

Answer 9

I have a big temper and have lost it on lot of occasion and done some really stupid stuff, so i know how to deal with my anger now before it deals to much damage. First thing you got to do is prevent you emotions from taking over and doing something stupid. Next LEAVE the scene of anger and think things over before acting again. Go somewhere far from what is giving you anger and clam down. I think you need to wait a day at least before dealing with something that makes you angry

Answer 10

Take a step outside of the situation-maybe even walk away from it for a few minutes if you can and visualise happy events in your life and nice tranquil moments. Stop focusing on the thing which is causing your anger.
