When a feeling grips you, name it in one plain word: this is anger, this is fear, this is hurt.
Not a story about why. Just the name. Putting the feeling into a word loosens its hold.
Give the feeling a number from zero to ten, and watch the number instead of obeying it.
A rating turns a wave you are inside into something you are measuring from the shore.
Under the anger, name the softer feeling: often it is fear, or hurt, or feeling unseen.
Anger is a bodyguard. Name what it is guarding, and it begins to soften.
