Bang a gong

When angry count to four, when very angry, swear. Mark Twain

Anger management techniques include screaming in private, listening to angry music, physical activity, journaling or painting, meditation or yoga, walking away, time out, humour, verbalizing it and lastly destroying physical representations safely.

The Rubin Museum in NY and London has an exhibit called the Mandala Lab that delves into the power of difficult emotions and how to turn them into positive ones. The exhibit consists of 4 quadrants based on a Tibetan mandala, each representing an emotion with an activity to transform it. In the anger section of the space, sound in the form of a gong orchestra is used. Here visitors strike a gong to represent expressed anger and as the gong is lowered into water, watch the anger dissipate as the sound fades and the water stills.

Take a look at famed deaf percussionist Dame Evelyn Glennie expressively playing the gongs

 Another approach is to use science to send a baseball at 1189mph into a gong (skip to 13:35)

Personally I would rather punch a pillow or go for a swim and would never risk damaging my sacred tools of transformation as anger management tools.  Whichever method you choose, remember that Letting go gives us freedom and freedom is the only condition for happiness. Thich Nhat Hahn
