Dealing with Anger | Best Senior Living in Salina

​Whatever happened to happy days? Even as the economy improves, hot weather fades and medical people are getting a better handle on our healthcare, many people just seem angry! Waiting in a line or even attending a family reunion can expose us to someone who is mad for no obvious reason. What can an ordinary person do when confronted with someone who is hot under the collar?
 
  • Some experts advise us to simply stay silent until the person calms down. It might be tempting to snap back at them or to offer "helpful" advice, but being a calm, quiet presence might help.
 
  • If you find yourself steaming up, try a form of meditation. Quiet, composed focus through prayer or mindfulness can reduce the heart rate, lower blood pressure, and help get control of stress.
 
  • Don't expect apologies from someone who has just had a tantrum. Maybe later a friend or acquaintance will tell you that they regret their action or speech, but any demand that they make immediate amends will likely rile them up all over again. Be forgiving.
 
  • Stay safe. If someone is really out of control, remove yourself from the situation or get closer to calmer people around you. Ask a store manager or caregiver to help you deal with someone who is expressing inappropriate anger.
 
  • Try being a model of good behavior. If we speak softly, firmly and kindly, those around us may get the idea. At the very least, we'll know we are trying to do what is right.
