Harvest the fruit of your own and other’s anger
- 5 evenings of 2 ½ hours (including breaks) online on Zoom.
The Surprising Purpose of Anger
Would you like to learn how to transform your anger into a guide for change?
To see the anger as passion about something that touches us deeply. Anger as a positive force for change.
There are reasons for anger, for indignation and frustration.
Taking our anger out on other people puts us on hold, closes doors and pushes others away. And often we end up in resignation, apathy and depression. We give up because we cannot direct our anger in a constructive place.
It is often people who are close to us who become targets of our anger and often we end up scolding ourselves when we have scolded our loved ones.
This course can teach you how to use anger as a constructive force that can change the world for the better and help you succeed in your projects. Over 5 evenings we will work to get to know the anger better, accept it and transform it into a precious guide.
In PART 1 we will focus on understanding and loving our own anger.
Anger is your friend
- Anger Management
- Understand your own anger and its causes
- Find safe ways to vent your anger
- Love yourself and your angry side
- See conflict as an invitation to find new creative solutions
Our work will be experience-oriented and with a minimum of theory. We emphasize practical exercises that help us to listen to the body, and to use the body’s resonance as a guide to what is real and true for each of us.
“I have learned through bitter experience the one supreme lesson; to conserve my anger, and as heat conserved is transmuted into energy, even so our anger controlled can be transmitted into a power that can move the world.” — Mahatma Gandhi
Transform anger into life force
Nonviolent communication (NVC) known as the ‘Giraffe language’ contains a process that can turn anger into a force that can move the world. Anger transformation is one of several transformation processes in NVC.
In this course we work with NVC as a tool to find new ways in old conflicts and develop more appreciation for the angry side in ourselves. Our individual conflict history plays a role, and it is often childhood experiences that shape our way of dealing with anger.
The power of anger can be used to create the life you want.
