7 anger management tips by Harvard University

Anger can be useful if we use it positively, but too much anger can harm our health and relationships.

According to Harvard University, letting out anger may feel good at first, but it often makes things worse. Try healthier ways to calm down.

Waiting overnight won’t always help. Instead, try relaxing activities like deep breathing or meditation.

Driving while angry can be dangerous. Take a walk, listen to music, or do deep breathing instead.

Some words make anger worse. Use calm and understanding words to keep the peace.

Holding onto anger harms you more than others. Try to forgive and move forward.

If something is bothering you, shift your focus to a different activity to calm down.

Reframe negative memories by looking at them in a new way. This helps reduce anger over time.
