Strategies for calming down?

After being wound up by my very loud and rebellious 5 year old daughter 3 hours ago, I'm struggling to calm down. I'd therefore be grateful for any tips to help lower the stress and anger levels. I thought locking myself away quietly for some internet browsing would help, but sadly it didn't.

Thanks, Steve

  • Thanks for the suggestion. I do wish I liked walking more, but the slow pace gives me too much time to think about what's winding me up or how I'm losing time on my hobbies. I want to take up bike riding again though, which I find takes my mind off things as you need to focus on where you're going. In fact, my latest obsession is researching a new electric bike, which I'm enjoying.
