Anger Masters

Even anger management teachers get angry. In fact anyone seeking out an anger management class should be wary of an instructor who claims they always practice what they preach. The benefit of teaching an anger management course is that anger is a subject we all are familiar with. Many physicians have not experienced the mental and physical stress caused by cancer. Every grief counselor cannot imagine how it may feel to loose a child, but we all have been angry.

Although anger is an emotion common to all. Anger Management is a discipline that must be learned and practiced. Management is described as the act or manner of managing; handling, direction, or control. The verb manage comes from the Italian maneggiare (to handle — especially a horse). Much like an unbridled horse anger is a force to be reckoned with. Anger has the power to destroy those around it and the power to destroy its own host as well. When anger is managed it has the capability to turn wrongs into rights, defend the weak, inspire change and birth invention.

Those who practice the discipline of anger management strive to master three basic tools that if used correctly will harness anger’s ancient power. These tools include effective communication, stress management, enhanced emotional intelligence. Future blog posts will instruct you in how to use the aforementioned tools.
