Lets see....
Breath in all the way, count to 10 slowly, then let the air out slooowly. Repeat until calmed.
This one I think is funny.
Alternate nostril breathing: Using your fingers, close one nostril, inhale. Open the closed nostril, and close the other one. Exhale. Repeat.
Both are things i've picked up from musicians as ways of calming yourself before performances.
Other than that, I climb things. If I'm really stressed or something, I go find a brick wall or tree or something and climb it. While I'm climbing, I forget about everything else except for what I'm doing, and when I reach the top I feel like I've acheived something. Oddly enough, this usually calms me down.
