I just grab a glass of water and drink it without swallowing it so I won't be able to speak. Funny right?, But it actually works for me.

This is a brilliant tactic! I once heard a priest who shared a story about a wife who went to an elder for advice. The elder recommended the wife to fetch water from his faucet saying the water is miraculous and told her that she should put water in her mouth each time they have a quarrel with her husband. After a few weeks, the wife returned to the elder saying the water is indeed magical and that she and her husband stopped fighting. She didn't know that the water in her mouth prevented her from speaking which solved their problem, hahaha!

Thank you so much Ellen for sharing these :) Greatly appreciated
