The participant's essential guide to reflection and personal
growth
Beyond Anger and Violence: A Program for Women Participant
Workbook is the participant's personal place for reflection,
reactions, and learning, during and after management sessions. The
activities inside reinforce program lessons about anger and
violence, including how families, relationships, communities, and
society affect one's life. In learning about the relationships
between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, participants can begin
to grasp a better self-understanding that will help them manage
anger in a healthier, more productive manner. They'll develop new
skills for communication, conflict resolution, and decision-making,
and will be introduced to a variety of calming techniques.
Beyond Anger and Violence is a 40-hour, evidence-based
program designed for women who have difficulty managing anger.
Based on a social-ecological model, the program addresses the
factors that put people at risk for experiencing overwhelming
feelings of anger, and perpetrating assaults or destruction of
property. This curriculum acknowledges anger as a normal,
appropriate, and human emotion, but also recognizes the destruction
it can lead to if allowed to get out of control. This workbook will
help guide participants through the program, reinforcing the
discussions held in session. Topics include:
The effects of trauma
Relationships and communication, control, and conflict
The importance of safety and the power of community
Self-transformation, and creating change
The workbook also includes a Daily Anger Log, a Self-Reflection
Tool, and list of yoga poses that can have a calming effect on both
body and mind. Participants may already recognize the effects of
anger on their lives, and that it may even be affecting their
health. Through the Beyond Anger and Violence program, and
the exercises in this workbook, they can join a group of women
working to create a less-violent world.
