>One technique recommended for anger management is relaxation. Angry
>feelings and emotions can be calmed by relaxing exercises such as deep
>breathing, relaxing imagery and slow nonstrenuous exercise similar to yoga.
>When a person becomes irritated and headed for a fit of anger, it is
>suggested they breathe deeply. This technique recommends that the person
>breathe from their diaphragm in order to relax. Using relaxing imagery may
>work for some people. Allowing their mind and thoughts to go to a happy
>place, a relaxing experience may help to calm them down. This imagery may
>be of a past experience or the individual could use their imagination. The
>yoga-like exercises used as an anger management technique are meant to
>relax the muscles which in turn will help the individual feel much calmer.

>Problem solving is used as an anger management technique. It is important
>for an individual to discover the reason for their anger. Anger is a
>natural response to certain situations and at times it is an acceptable
>reaction but there are other incidents when the anger is not appropriate.
>There is a reason for the anger and to every problem there is said to be a
>solution. When a situation arises, the individual is taught not to focus on
>the solution but rather the problem. Finding ways to handle the problem and
>confront it is the main objective in this anger management technique. It
>may take awhile to conform to this plan. It is important to stick to it,
>eventually the answers will come.

>People with anger issues are taught through anger management techniques to
>practice better communication skills. Often a fit of anger arises because
>an individual misunderstood a conversation. Before giving it any thought,
>they become enraged and filled with anger. Anger management teaches the
>individual to slow down their thinking, think before they speak or react.
>The easily angered person needs to listen to the underlying message and try
>not to jump to conclusions. When feeling on the defensive side, the
>individual should learn not to fight back. Listening rationally to what the
>other person has to say might make a huge difference in a reaction.

>These are just a few anger management techniques. There are many others
>which may be helpful to an individual requiring help. There are many books,
>movies and website on the Internet which can provide information regarding
>anger management techniques.
