Ranting: Control your self.
Ranting is largely brought about by feelings of anxiety ore nervousness about certain things that don't go your way. And for me i know that this is an outlet to express your anxiety at least momentarily. you need to vent off that steam to, so to speak.
The next time you feel like going into a rant, and in danger of going overboard, try deep breathing. Aside from its proven beneficial effect and lowering your blood pressure, relaxing your muscles,and slowing your heart beat rate and respiration, it prevents stress from building up. It increases your energy level and helps you turn off the analytical and racing thoughts.
In addition the sooner that you accept that not all things around you ( life events and other people's reactions among other things can be controlled, the sooner you realize that you are equip with skills , inner resources, and the ability to thrive independently, thereby making ranting fruitless. How about going for a run or push-ups while you're at it.

That's some photo of Gore in action!
ReplyDeleteI just bought the "Feel Better Live Longer" CD Set from Andrew Weil. I listened to it at a friend's house last week and loved it. Dr. Weil teaches breathing techniques to help relax, de-stress and re-energize. I can use all of that!
It is only .97 plus 3.50 shipping through Amazon!
