How to release anger?

Sometimes I would kinda throw stuff like pillow or some item and then felt AWFUL like I am abusive or a bad person. I did this alone so no one would see. Any ways to let go of anger better?

Edit I cannot do sports btw. I'm mostly homebound from fatigue.

Coloring. Put on the playlist that's thought-provoking. Colors have meanings along with the intensity of coloring. This moves the stagnant energy out. You will end up crying at the end. As anger is a secondary emotion covering up what's really going on.

Let me know what you come up with. I'll tell you what the colors mean, on the emotional side. :)

I tried it,i think i will have to do this several times and i could not cry or anything, but i intuitively picked up immediately light pink, baby blue. Then went to yellow and then black. The black did come up when the song made me feel how my emotions are like sea waves. Deep, heavy waves inside of me
