“Enlightenment is eliminating mental confusion, eliminating hatred, jealousy, mental toxins, cravings. That’s very simple and straightforward. Whether you can do it or not is another matter.” - M. Ricard

Once you experience the same level & type of stress you should be accustomed to it so it's not stressful anymore. Habit/reflex & experience/knowledge just decrease the difficulty level for the same level of effort.

Take a deep breath and shut your mouth. Glare at the other person intently. Leave the situation if necessary.

When things are tough I imagine a wooden frame in front of my face. Visualizing that does two things:

It slightly distracts me from the crazy shit my wife is saying.
It makes it easier to remember that she is acting like a child.

As oldredder said - the more experience you have doing it the easier it becomes. One thing you have to be prepared for is the sudden, bolt-out-of-the-blue shit test. Something so anger inducing and so unexpected that your mouth runs before you set up frame.

whats a more TRP way to handle stress?

Retreat to solitude. Deal with your stress in private, get it under control. Avoid interaction with your girls if possible when your mental state is weak.

Meditation is extremely helpful for dispersing stress as it arises.

I would answer the same as when someone asked me what they can do about back pain: preventative medicine. By that I mean that the best way to cure back pain is to strengthen your back so that it doesn't get tired when you're sitting for long periods of time.

It's the same with stress. Meditate in your free time and work on your breathing. When a stressful situation arises you will know how to control your breathing and relax yourself. Stress is, of course, mental, but its effects are manifested physically. You can't control the fact that what's happening is bothering you, but you can control your physical reaction to it, which makes it seem like you're not affected.
