I've exercised somatopsychic effects on myself. When I lived in London I used to get really riled at the idiots that stop as soon as they've stepped off the escalator, or that stand right in front of the maps for extended periods trying to get their bearings. For a while I practised smiling at them (little short of bared teeth, to start with, and even if they weren't looking at me) and trying to admire their self-centre stupidity. After a while it seemed to work - I found myself marvelling at such remarkable displays of twattitude, instead of internally ripping their heads off.
