Managing Your Anger When It Flares
For parents of children of all ages
All parents experience moments of anger and frustration from the daily pressures of raising a family. While it's only human to lose our cool sometimes, expressing extreme anger is not healthy or productive. Learn how to become aware of your thoughts, words, and actions and how they impact interactions with your children. Finding calm in moments of frustration keeps us grounded and models appropriate ways to deal with anger.
Join us to:
- explore the purpose of anger
- understand what's behind your anger
- learn a 4-step process to manage angry moments
Your enrollment includes access to the video recording, an audio version that you can listen to podcast-style, and handouts.
