00:06Tank, slow down or you'll knock over that bowl.
00:13Careful, Tank! You're splashing milk everywhere!
00:17I'm fine, Mama. Why is breakfast always slow?
00:21Toby, get out of my way!
00:24Tank mad again!
00:27Whoa! Why are you so angry this morning?
00:32I... I don't know. I just feel... hot inside.
00:39That's okay. Sometimes we wake up with a storm in our chest. Let's calm it. Count with me.
00:48One, two, three.
00:53Better?
00:54A little.
01:09I hate being late. I hate traffic.
01:13We all get frustrated, but yelling won't fix traffic.
01:17Bug!
01:19I can't stand it.
01:21Remember our calm down plan?
01:23Deep breaths.
01:28You promised no yelling today.
01:30Sorry, Toby.
01:32I wince when I'm angry.
01:46You're too slow.
01:48Hippie!
01:49Hey, watch it, Tank.
01:51Sorry.
01:52That hurt.
01:54Tank, that's not okay.
01:56Let's take a quiet break.
01:59Why do I always get so mad?
02:07Tank, are you okay?
02:08I got angry again.
02:10I squeeze my stress ball and count to ten when I get angry.
02:15Calm mind.
02:16Calm body.
02:18Like the tree, we bend but don't break.
02:21See how Gramp stays peaceful?
02:24Even when things around him move fast?
02:26It looks quiet.
02:29Like everything slows down.
02:35That old oak is dropping leaves all over my yard.
02:37It's a mess.
02:38You need to cut it down.
02:40Hello, Kwok.
02:42I understand you're frustrated, but that tree has been here for 50 years.
02:46Let's discuss this calmly.
02:49Calmly?
02:49There's nothing to discuss.
02:51Every day, I'm cleaning up your tree's mess.
02:54Feel it coming.
02:56The boom feeling.
02:59Tank, remember what we practiced.
03:02But he's yelling at our tree.
03:04At Gramps.
03:06Yes.
03:07And that's making you angry.
03:09What's our first tool?
03:11In through the nose.
03:13Out through the mouth.
03:16What are you two doing?
03:19They're redoing what you should try, neighbor.
03:22Finding peace before speaking.
03:24We're teaching Tank that anger doesn't solve problems.
03:27Would you like to join us in finding a solution about the leaves?
03:32I...
03:34Well...
03:35I suppose we could put up a fence section?
03:37Or I could use the leaves for compost.
03:41Papa, I didn't yell back.
03:43Even though I wanted to.
03:45That's called self-control, buddy.
03:47You use your tools.
03:50Anger is like a fire.
03:52Too much fuel.
03:54It blazes out.
03:55Tools to cool it.
03:57Breathe.
03:57Count.
03:58Talk.
03:58Walk.
04:05How was your day, Tank?
04:08I practiced breathing with Papa and stayed calm when Kwok shouted.
04:13That's emotional control.
04:15Managing big feelings.
04:17Practice makes perfect, dear.
04:20He who masters himself is mightier than he who conquers a city.
04:23Today I learned anger can be managed.
04:25I just need my tools, breathe, count, and talk it out.
04:29Let's go.
04:29Let's go.
04:30Let's go.
