6. • Anger and anxiety are what we
feel when we are disappointed
or when faced with trials and
difficulties or something
extremely annoying.
7. • When we are angry, we sometimes say and
do things that we later regret. When
things do not happen according to our plans
and expectations, we need to keep calm
and think things through because the
decisions we make when we are angry are
often the wrong ones.
8. • Fear is another destabilizing
feeling. As long as there is fear,
there is no calmness. Drawing on
courage thus helps bring about
calmness.

10. • Inner calmness is a key to a happy and
contented life. If you know yourself well
enough, you should not be bothered by
what people say about you when they are
angry. When you are the one angry, you
must “tame” your anger with the virtues of
patience and goodness.
11. Here are a few ways by which you can
manage your anger with calmness:
1. Pray to God.
2. Count from 1 to 20 before speaking
again.
3. Retreat or go away from a situation for
a few minutes.

few minutes.

happy.

picture it clearly in your mind.

few moments.
