Do you often get angry during summers? Well, there is an explanation. A study conducted in Poland has found a link between hot weather and stress levels.
The team has discovered that the stress hormone – cortisol rises with the rising temperature and it is lower in the winters. Cortisol plays an important role as it helps the body to regulate sugar, salt and fluids. The hormone is also responsible to control emotions such as mood, motivation and fear.
Anger is a very strong emotion, which can affect a person’s physical and mental health in various ways. Here are some of the tips that will help you control your anger:
Recognize and Retreat
When you’re up against something that brings out your anger or explodes your senses, it is better to step away from it as long as you can. Take some time off of things to relax and calm down.

Sleep is the next most important thing when it comes to a healthy lifestyle – a good 6-8 hour of sleep is necessary for maintaining good health.
