In the Long Run: Workbench Exercise

REFLECTING ON OUR ANGER AND SETTING GOALS

Reflecting on our anger will help us to better understand ourselves and make lasting change.

A QUICK DEBRIEF ON YOUR ANGER

Now that we’ve learned several strategies and techniques to help us handle our anger in the long term, we’ll create some goals to help implement these strategies into our daily lives.

We recommend creating a weekly schedule like the following to keep up with the strategies you try long term.

This might require some time and planning, but the results will be worth it. Even if you get only a few minutes over a couple days a week, when you planned on doing more, that still counts.

Here’s an example of a developing a weekly schedule:
