Step 1
When you feel yourself starting to lose your temper, take a deep breath and count to ten. Don't give in to negative emotions! At this time, it is better to switch to something positive. Change your occupation or environment, at least for a short while. Go to another room or to the street. Perhaps in this way you will be able to stop the stimulus on you, and you can calmly think about the situation that caused you negative emotions.
Step 2
If you are still in the grip of negative emotions, try to seek help from someone who is calm and balanced. Talk about your problem and ask for advice. By speaking the situation that irritated you, you will be able to look at it from the outside and, possibly, see ways to resolve it without any help.
Step 3
If you are dissatisfied with your own actions or their consequences, calmly analyze what exactly caused this. Accept that people are wrong. Concentrate on the fact that you were able to see the cause of the problem, which means that you will be able to fix it.
Step 4
Do not make excessive demands on others. Too often, the irritation is caused by high expectations of other people. Refuse criticism in this case. It will not help the situation change in your favor, but will only cause negative reactions. Try to focus on the merits of others and not over-emphasize the disadvantages.
Step 5
To quickly get rid of the accumulated irritation, you need to learn how to create a calming environment for yourself anywhere. To do this, you can develop a specific scenario of actions, the repetition of which can restore your peace of mind. It can be entered in a different sequence: taking a warm bath, listening to soothing music, warm herbal tea, using various relaxation techniques.
Step 6
But in order to negate the detrimental effect of irritability on the body in the long run, you can use sports, drawing, long walks, reading, watching movies and, of course, good rest. It is better if it is communication with nature. All these activities will force you to take an active life position and look at the world around you positively. And there is no room for irritation in positive thinking!
