Good ways to relieve anger?

If you find you are getting angry because you don't feel as if you have achieved anything, or are frustrated at not being able to get work done etc - a bad day at work etc. Then it might help to do a Sudoko puzzle or two. The reason being every puzzle is solvable, unlike Patience it's not pure luck.
 
This is why everyone should have a punchbag at home. Whenever I get angry, I take it all out on that.

And within 5 minutes I'm fine... Or, I'm too tired to be anything other than fine :p
 
Instead of venting the anger how bout managing it, I like to use the following method:
1. Picture yourself lying on your tummy on a warm rock that hangs out over a crystal clear stream.
2. Picture yourself with both your hands dangling in the cool running water.
3. Birds are sweetly singing in the cool mountain air.
4. No one knows your secret place.
5. You are in total seclusion from that hectic place called the world.
6. The soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a cascade of serenity.
7. The water is so crystal clear that you can easily make out the face of the person you are holding underwater.

I was going to suggest beating up a hippy like yourself would be more effective, but on reading step 7 I'm liking it! :D
 
Slow long breaths through the nose. Also try and empty your mind of all thoughts. At first this will be very difficult but if you persist will become much easier and will reap huge rewards for your well-being.
 
I found cycling excellent to release anger but recently I've started weight lifting and that's even better.
 
Walks are another good thing, putting on my Ipod and listening to some relaxing music while taking a nice walk.

I don't get as annoyed as I used to honestly, but I also do a lot of weight lifting when i get annoyed.
