Welcome back to Why Am I So Effing Stressed, with your host Annemarie Bell. During today’s conversation, we explore the topic of road rage, and how you can choose to be someone who reduces the collective stress on the road rather than adding to it. Join us as we show you how to take a moment to assess the environment in your car, with an attitude of mindfulness towards the disastrous consequences that often result in mismanaged stress behind the wheel. At the root of the problem is a decision to direct your energy where it is not constructively placed through aggressive driving and road rage. We distinguish between defensive and aggressive driving and explore how to avoid aggressive and rage-fueled behaviors on the road before touching on some reckless things people do behind the wheel which can result in injury and death. Next, we talk about the dangers of driving in bad weather and racing with other cars and explore some practical techniques to help you mitigate negative emotions on the road. Tune in today to hear more about how to be a part of the solution, rather than the problem on our roads.
