Take Some Deep Breaths.

Take Some Deep Breaths.

When anger strikes, it’s easy to get caught up in the heat of the moment. Your body often enters a state known as the fight-or-flight response, which helps prime your body to take action.

In order to take control and reduce feelings of anger, it can be helpful to focus on your breathing.

Focus on taking slow, deep, controlled breaths (atleast for 10 seconds) .Rather than taking shallow breaths that only fill your chest.

It can give you time to calm yourself, take some moments to think, and respond in a way that isn't going to have long-term negative effects.

Take a Deep Breath

Taking a deep breath will take away that stressful or anxious feeling that builds in your chest. Stepping back to focus on your breath for a second, allows you to respond instead of reacting purely on that emotional buildup.

Take a Breath

Take a few minutes at the beginning of your workout, or even at the beginning of your day, to slow down and simply focus on the act of breathing.  

It can help you set your intentions, connect with your body and even lower your body's stress response.
