I could feel the vile words starting to rush out of my mouth.
But I snuffed them out before they could even fire up.
My chest was beginning to tighten and I could feel the tears of frustration welling at the corners of my eyes.
Is it even worth it?
I stepped outside, took a walk and tried to breathe.
Slowly.
I looked up at the sky trying to imbibe it’s lightness.
I started to feel better and the tightness in my chest suddenly disappeared.
What do you do with sudden rushes of negative emotions?
1. Walk.
2. Breathe slowly.
3. Look up at the sky.
4. Imagine you’re in a beautiful and happy place.
5. Smile.
But the most important thing of all:
Remember that none of this will matter ten years from now. And no matter what happens, everything always turns out all right.

I channel the energy elsewhere. If I’m going to get all fired up about something I’d rather go clean the house or weed the garden or run on the treadmill. When I am angry or frustrated I cannot talk myself out of it but I can tire myself out physically and that helps enormously.
That is a real productive way of dealing with it Melissa.
I’ll make sure to try that too. And you’re right, better to get the body too tired to even feel frustration or anger, than to do something we might regret later.
