Interventions for managing anger
In this meta-analysis of mostly randomized controlled trials, interventions that decreased physiological arousal (e.g., meditation, mindfulness, yoga) were effective at reducing anger. Interventions that increased physiological arousal (e.g., various sports and physical activities) did not consistently reduce anger.
