Breathing techniques are an easy way that the children can change their physical and psychological states. Ask the children how they feel when they are angry. It is important to children to have concrete understanding, where is the anger in your body? What happens when you get angry? What makes you angry? If the children can realize when they get angry what a trigger for their anger is they can control their response to the irritant. Tell them that when they feel teh anger in their bodies that they should concentrate on the anger taking deep breaths imagining the anger leaving them with each breath.

Stop and breath in slowly and count to ten.
