Three Action Steps to Calm Down and Discover Trigger Points

Pause and Pray – When you feel anger rising, take a deep breath and say a short prayer. Ask God to help you control your emotions and respond with wisdom instead of rage.–The Lord is Good All the Time and All the Time I will Remember That God is Good.

Identify the Root Cause – Anger often comes from feeling hurt, frustrated, or misunderstood. Take a moment to ask yourself, “Why am I really angry?” Understanding your triggers will help you respond with patience.

Choose a Peaceful Response – Instead of reacting in anger, practice using kind and gentle words. Walk away if needed, or take time to cool down before responding to a situation.
