Walk away

If you're feeling upset, nothing beats a 15-minute walking meditation. Take a walk around the block, take your dog to the park, or just find a place in your office and walk up and down the corridor. Start by walking at a brisk pace, then after five minutes slow your speed by half, after the next five minutes, slow to a steady, purposeful walk. Be mindful of your feet and your steps the entire time, making sure to bring your attention back to your deliberate movements if you find your thoughts wandering.
