Some people are more easily agitated than others—even in watching TV their emotions may elevate, causing outward expressions of anger such as becoming red-faced, with a bulging neck, and having a high temper.

This phenomenon arises as the sympathetic nerves become hyperactive, causing the peripheral blood vessels to contract.

For example, while riding the bus on the way to work, get off one stop early and walk the rest of the distance.

You can also “ground” negative energy in the body by wearing soft, cloth shoes, just socks, or going barefoot and walking on grass or soil.

For example, many office workers spend their days in front of a computer screen in a “turtle-neck” posture and have to sit still for many hours on end.

When they get home, they lie again on the sofa—not moving—or bend their heads to their phones, contributing even more to their stiff necks and shoulders, which in turn can lead to high blood pressure.
