Follow this advice to learn how to control your anger.

My husband is a good man. But at home, he acts like a clueless intern.

Stop saying this one phrase to your toddlers.

These 8 killer burpee exercises will put your strength and stamina to the test.

The verdict is in: If you love The Avengers movies, you just might love the 'Snyder Cut.'

If you want to raise well-adjusted kids, sleep more, praise less, and tell one key lie.

Chances are you got angry today at someone or something. It happens. Chances are you felt a bit of shame about how you acted, too. That happens, too. The thing about anger is it’s just an emotion. And one of the best things you can do is remind yourself that getting angry is as normal as getting happy. This eliminates the belief and undue stress that you should be feeling something different. When you understand this and validate the feeling, you’re more able to pause in the moment and prevent yourself from reacting poorly. It’s a small step to one, but one that makes a big difference.
