Effective Anger Management

Distressing, inappropriate and often violent expressions of anger, frustration and rage are on the increase in all areas of public and private life causing mental ill-health, stress, misery and sometimes even physical injury and death – but it doesn’t have to be this way. Learning how to manage anger effectively is key to maintaining a positive mindset and healthy relationships…
