Hi. My name is Dr. Art Bowler. And I'm a psychologist in Manhattan, New York City, where I have my own private practice. In this clip we're going to talk about how to deal with anger. First it's important to remember that anger is an emotion that is normal and necessary within everyday life. It's a normal feeling for us to feel angry in certain situations that frustrate us. And often anger is related to an injustice we feel that has been inflicted upon us. So, it's important to realize that anger is a natural and everyday likely occurrence. Depending on different levels. But how do we control our anger? Well first we want to learn to breathe. Anger sometimes rushes at us. So what we want to do is breathe in through our nose, hold it for one to three seconds and out through our mouth. Which will help us release some of the initial frustration we feel related to the anger. Next, problem solve. And the way I usually tell people to do that is to talk to other people to ventilate the feelings that occur with anger. So, also you can get a perception of whether or not your anger is appropriate and then take action. This is how I tend to deal with anger and help some of my clients do so. This is Dr. Art Bowler and this has been how to deal with anger.
