Although I don't mean that in the sense of turning into the HULK and tossing the groom around the room. But in the sense of keeping my SA composure to a minimum.

I used a similar coping strategy before work everyday, visualising situations and conversations that might occur, it was very effective and helped decrease my morning anxieties, setting me up with positive vibes for the rest of the day.
