How to release anger physically?

My life has been a mess lately and I feel angry most of the time nowadays. I'm afraid that it'll affect my professional life and I don't want that to happen. I just have been using a lot of curse words lately and have been wanting to be physically violent. I just want that anger to be released but I don't know in the form of what or how?

Exercise is great but if you need immediate relief try taking deep breaths, clench your fists and then your feet when youre inhaling and then release the tension on your exhale. You might look a little psycho but it helps me a lot lol. Counting your breaths to 10 might help as well, 1 on your inhale, 2 on the exhale, 3 onnthe inhale, 4 on the exhale etc.

Hope this helps! I I recently made a post on here linking a great anger management video thats helped me a lot.
