Do you get mad when your partner comes home late, or puts you on hold during a phone call?
Are you seething with rage when you feel let down, disappointed or taken for granted?
Are you bursting with outrage at the unfairness of doing most of the work in your relationships?
Do you feel angry at having to be the responsible one in your relationships?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may be sabotaging your chances of having satisfying relationships – both personally and professionally.
Intense, uncontrolled emotions muddy your communication skills, drowning out your message, and making those around you tune out. Whether you give someone the cold shoulder, or are provoked into an outburst, you create tension and distance in your relationship. The very opposite of what you want and need.
Anger uses up a lot of energy and is exhausting to carry around, leading to stress overload, which translates into over eating, weight gain and other physical ailments. Gastric upsets such as irritable bowel syndrome, colitis, bloating, constipation and diarrhea, skin breakouts and constant sore throats, chronic fatigue, migraines, sciatica, neck, shoulder and back pain are common side effects of anger.

1. Transform your unproductive angry energy into focused strategies for using those strong emotions productively.
2. Manage your disappointments so that you don’t anesthetize difficult feelings with pills, food, alcohol or drugs.

4. Craft your messages so that your feelings are expressed in a way that can be heard and responded to.
5. Make more room for loving, sensitive and respectful connections.
