Hi there! Have you ever felt really upset and didn’t know what to do about it? Let me tell you a story. Yesterday, I wanted to wear my favorite sweatshirt to my best friend’s birthday party, but I couldn’t find it. After searching everywhere, I saw my brother wearing it, and it had a big ice cream stain on it! I felt my body get hot, my face turned red, and my heart was pounding. It wasn’t a nice feeling. Has something like this ever happened to you?
Sometimes, we feel confused or uncomfortable because we don’t understand our emotions. Our bodies give us clues about what we’re feeling. These clues can also help us understand how others feel.
Today, let’s talk about anger. Anger is a natural emotion that happens when we feel frustrated, annoyed, or treated unfairly. Even though it feels unpleasant, anger is important because it tells us when something is wrong. It can also motivate us to make changes.
When you’re angry, your heart might beat faster, your muscles could tense up, and your breathing might become quick and uneven. You might feel hot or sweaty, and your face might show your anger by frowning or clenching your jaw. People around you can often tell when you’re angry, which can change how they act towards you.
It’s normal to feel angry sometimes, but learning to manage it is important. Here are some tips:
Talking to someone can really help. You don’t have to deal with anger alone. Sometimes, just having someone listen can make you feel better.
Remember my story about the sweatshirt? I was really angry at first, but I counted to 10 and talked to my brother about how I felt. He apologized, and even offered me his favorite sweatshirt to wear to the party. We found a solution together, and I felt much better.
Learning to recognize the signs of anger in our bodies helps us understand our emotions better. This way, we can express them clearly to others. Thanks for learning with me today!

Hi, how are you? Today, I’m sure answering this question isn’t always easy. Yesterday, I wanted to wear my favorite sweatshirt to my best friend’s birthday party, but I couldn’t find it anywhere. I looked and looked for it, and then I saw that my brother was wearing it. Worst of all, it had a giant ice cream stain on it. I clearly couldn’t wear it to the party anymore. I felt my body get hot, my face turned red, and my heart was pounding. It was not a nice feeling. Has this ever happened to you?
If we don’t understand our emotions, we can feel frustrated, confused, or uncomfortable because we don’t know how to react. The sensations we feel in our bodies can give us clues about what emotions we are experiencing. They can also help us identify what others are feeling.
Today, we’re going to focus on one of the basic emotions: anger. It’s also known as rage when it’s very intense. Anger is a natural emotion; it’s a response to frustration, injustice, or annoyance. It produces an unpleasant feeling and causes our bodies to react in certain ways. It’s important to keep in mind that although anger is an unpleasant feeling, it’s necessary and helps us identify what we don’t agree with. It can also motivate us to take action.
So now we know what anger is, but have you ever stopped to think about how it affects your body? When you get angry, you might feel your heart beating faster, your muscles may tense up as if they’re getting ready for action, and your breathing might become faster and more irregular. Sometimes, your palms may get sweaty, and you may start to feel hot or even like you’re about to explode. Your face also reflects what you’re feeling; for example, you may frown or clench your jaw. People around you can sense your anger, and this can affect how they interact with you.
Although it’s normal to get angry from time to time, learning to manage anger is very good for our well-being and helps prevent us from reacting in ways we might regret later. For example, you can try taking deep breaths or slowly counting to 10 before reacting to the source of your anger. There are also techniques to help us understand our anger, such as writing about it in a journal. Sometimes, calmly talking about how we feel can be a big help. Give it a try; you’ll see how much better you feel.
We can also think about who we can talk to when we feel this way. We don’t have to be angry alone; sometimes, someone simply listening and supporting us can be enough to make us feel better.
Remember the situation I told you about at the beginning? When I realized I couldn’t wear my favorite sweatshirt, I was really angry and annoyed that my brother had taken it without asking me. But then I slowly counted to 10, and when I calmed down a bit, I told him how I felt. He was sorry for what he had done and apologized to me. My anger didn’t disappear instantly, but taking a deep breath and talking about how I felt helped me feel a little calmer. Then my brother offered me his favorite sweatshirt to wear to the party. In the end, we found a solution.
Learning to identify the bodily sensations that emotions create is very useful. This way, we can understand our emotions better and express them to others. See you next time!
