Anger usually happens as a result of feeling frustrated, insulted, deceived or even under attack. It triggers a physical reaction in your body, your mind becomes focused on these potential threats, causing adrenaline and stress hormones to be pumped around your body as you respond by getting ready to fight or run.

Stress hormones race around your body, your heart rate and blood pressure rises, breathing gets deeper and faster, and blood is diverted from the organs to the muscles as your rational thoughts give way to primitive thinking. Failing to manage anger effectively can affect your relationships, your work and even your self-esteem. Long term anger can often lead to further mental and physical health problems.
