Anger Management Seminar

July 22 | 10:00–11:30 a.m. | Oak Brook

Let's face it – all of us get angry at some point in our lives, it's unavoidable–it's one of the many feelings that lie on the human spectrum of emotions. However, anger is unique in that it can be one of the most destructive of emotions–it has the power to destroy relationships both personal and professional as well as poison our bodies and lead to depression and even violence. It doesn't need to be this way!

Aristotle said: “Anybody can become angry–that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way–that is not within everybody's power and is not easy” 

Indeed, it is not easy, but we can come close. At its core, anger is simply energy and you have a choice on how to manage that energy, a choice on how you employ it, how you manage it. In other words, you have a choice to either invest or spend that energy. Come learn how you can harness this mysterious yet powerful emotion, minimize or eliminate its havoc on your joy and contentment, and gain skills on how to choose to invest your anger to motivate positive change where it is most needed in your life.
