Practical ways of dealing with anger
Anger ruins lives. It leads to violence, broken relationships and even prison. It causes other people fear and destroys relationships. It damages careers, too, because companies are reluctant to promote those who cannot be relied on to keep cool in stressful situations. And, for the person with the short-fuse habit, it causes remorse and guilt. But what do you do about it? There is a lot of information available about what? and why? - on what it is and why people get angry. What is in short supply is how do you get beyond this habit. How do you learn to stay, at least, a little more cool a little more of the time? In this website I have always provided practical techniques on how to handle the short-fuse habit. Now I've designed a practical workshop in which you can learn techniques for defusing those hot buttons - with hands-on coaching on how to tailor the methods to suit your personality. A fresh approach This is not a typical anger management workshop. Instead of learning to 'manage' your anger you will learn how to defuse the triggers which activate the anger - so you don't get angry in the first place. What's more, I guarantee that you will not be spending hours sitting on cushions... | listening to others talking about their childhood | | nor listening to patronising lectures on how wrong it is to get angry... | | nor being taught to 'relax' by someone dressed in purple | | nor having 'the group' admonish you for being a naughty boy/girl | | nor having to endure hours of New Age music and dolphin calls |

The workshop is not for those who feel righteous and justified in their anger. It is for those who have already decided that having a short-fuse is no longer acceptable to them. It is for people who want to be free to have fun and to enjoy life and relationships and peace of mind. This is a workshop. It is not a group therapy session. This is because we look upon anger as a habit rather than an illness or a personal weakness. So the solution is to learn better ways of handling frustrations, setbacks, disappointments, and other 'hot buttons'. In this straight-forward workshop you will learn, and begin applying, practical methods for changing your life. Starting right away. 'The workshop is led by me, Reg Connolly. I am an NLP Trainer and former psychotherapist, who has worked with stressed and anger-prone people for over 17 years - and I have used the methods presented in this workshop to deal with my own short-fuse habit.' |
