Things You'll Need:
- Anger-management Counseling
-
Step 1
Take slow, deep breaths and count to 10 when you feel a hot surge of anger. Use the time this takes to keep yourself from doing something rash.
-
Step 2
Try to consider the offensive situation from all perspectives, not just your own ' maybe the offending parties had no choice but to do what they did. Consider whether your anger is justified.
-
Step 3
Think about the object of - and the underlying reason for - your anger. Go beyond easy scapegoats and focus on what specifically triggered your temper.
-
Step 4
Take positive action to improve the situation once you're in a more controlled state of mind. For example, if you feel your boss treated you unjustly, collect yourself first and then approach him or her with your concerns. Refrain from venting and taking it out on your subordinates or colleagues.

on 3/4/2009 I think it's important do not let yourself "to react" in a heat of emotion, just walk away. Then recollect and apply to the root of the problem, not the trigger point, which sets you off.

Meditation may help you release the pressure that's dumped on you dealing with angry clients all day! STOP and take those deep breaths.
Consider in your mind that the negative energy coming from all those people you're speaking with is affecting you. So you have to distance yourself, and get rid of the negative energy in some way.
You can do this by centering yourself in PEACE. You're being bombarded! To protect yourself you need to have a shield! The only shield I know of that's truly effective is Christ Jesus. Jesus is a real person who can protect you-your sould from the effects of the bombardment of all that anger from others.
It's not an instant fix! It's a day by day by day relationship with Jesus.
It works for me!
"Come unto me all you who labor and are heavily laden and I will give you rest." HE does! I
