Emotional Control and Communication in Conflict Resolution

Posted on October 25, 2023October 25, 2023 by Mark Moran

Conflict is natural because of disagreement. Whether the conflict is minor, verbal, or becomes violent, depends on the situation, time and place. Individually and socially, conflict occurs everyday at different levels. Whether at work and a disagreement occurs, or at home and an argument ensures, conflict is part of daily life. Just because conflict and differences exist, does not mean it has to be a bad thing or dangerous thing. While many conflicts spiral out of control into professional, personal or even social chaos, conflicts do not need to become divisive and destructive forces. Differences can be discussed, mended and aligned to incorporate benefits for everyone.

Conflict resolution requires emotional control, communication, listening and an ability to understand wants and needs of self and other.

However, certain differences can only be mended so far. Certain differences cannot always make every side happy and certain differences will leave some with some resentment. It is how one intellectually and emotionally handles a conflict that matters sometime the most. When wars result or family feuds ensue, then no matter the conclusion, no-one benefits. Hence it is important to to not only employ good conflict resolution skills but also manage emotions.

Emotions

Emotions can turn an argument or conflict into an aggressive verbal and sometimes physical battle with only impasses. In this case, when entering into any conflict resolution meeting, or entering into argument or debate, to present oneself with a calm mind. Anger Management is key. Focusing on dislikes of other person or group, lingering on past insults or wrongs, allowing prejudices to warp the intellect and issuing insults can only escalate. The key is to de-escalate when conflict emerges during discussion. It is important to identify one’s own triggers, as well as the other individual’s triggers. Once these are identified, it is easier to avoid and also limit. Avoid being overly defensive or quick to respond if something upsets. There are good ways to respond to criticism and bad ways. It is key during conflict resolution to respond well.

Conflict resolution requires emotional control and intellectual reason.

Furthermore, one needs to identify tone of voice, body position and movement in regards to dealing with the individual. How one initially represents oneself can determine the outcome of a discussion. This is true when arguing with a spouse or friend, debating with another person, crafting a business deal, negotiating a bill, or even responding to an officer at a basic traffic stop. When one insults or past biases are voiced in an aggressive manner, the other person will automatically assume a more defensive position and be far less willing to listen. Name calling and insulting while dismissing the primary topic is a good way to end any resolution before it ever begins. Instead be calm and collective and be positive. Avoid negative sentences and “I” statements, but keep very close to the topic and avoid ad hominem argumentation. Compliments and acknowledgement of other another side’s view and an appreciation of one’s concerns can open a far more healthy dialogue.

Communication

Obviously a healthy a dialogue is the purpose. Each dialogue has an end goal. To reach the established end goal, involves communication and listening. When one speaks so loudly above others, one not only alienates oneself from the other side, but also is unable to hear points and counter points. When pointing out strengths and weaknesses of one’s view, there should be a clear line of respect and time for each side to fully articulate each other’s point of view. Proper listening and communication is hence a pre-requisite in any negotiation or mediation and is as important as emotional control.

Reactions to Conflict

When dealing with conflict there are a variety of ways to handle it. The article, “5 Conflict Resolution Strategies: Steps, Benefits and Tips” by Jennifer Herrity points out some key ways some may deal with conflict and its resolution. She states,

“Conflicts are struggles that can arise during an active disagreement of opinions or interests, so it’s important to understand how to navigate and resolve them. In the workplace, there are many instances in which conflict can happen between coworkers, and when it does, it is important to resolve the situation before it escalates. In this article, we discuss five conflict resolution strategies, how to use them in the workplace and the benefits of conflict resolution…Different people use different methods to resolve conflict, depending on their personalities and preferences. The five most common strategies, known as the (Kenneth) Thomas-(Ralph) Kilmann model, used to resolve conflicts in the workplace include”

Individuals when dealing with conflict can avoid the argument completely. This passive reaction to an argument can lead many unresolved issues and deeper resentment. Many introverts and passive individuals will flee conflict however instead of arguing or feeling bullied into an issue by a more aggressive personality. Avoidance may relieve temporary tension but it does not resolve the existing issue.

How to resolve a conflict has many options. Please also review AIHCP’s Anger Management Program

Other individuals will actively engage and compete against the other person. They will completely and totally reject the entirety of the other person’s argument and push only for one’s own ideal or solution. This leads to active hostility and disagreement and also offers no other solution. Whether in business, politics, or international war, this leads to one eventually exerting power over the other or leaving a totally dissatisfied side which will later re-emerge with similar issues.Other individuals will accommodate the other individual. This may lead to short term peace but again only presents a lingering issue. Sometimes accommodation is purposely utilized to resolve short term issues with true sights on longer term venues.

Compromising, like accommodation, also provides a short term solution but usually leads to longer term issues and revisiting to the lasting issue. Those in compromise though both walk away with a distaste but also a small gain.

Finally, collaboration is the ultimate solution when possible. In this scenario, all individuals win because they work together towards something better. Each side realizes the value of the other and combine their forces and ideas towards a greater good.

Character Matters

Understanding the sides of both and avoiding bias is key in conflict resolution. Please also review AIHCP’s Crisis Intervention Certification

Individuals must also during any type of negotiation or conflict resolution possess some sort of character and ability to read it in others. One should be able to analyze one’s own strength and weaknesses and see where one is right or wrong. One must also understand the type of personality one is dealing with across from them. What type of temperament, personality and demeanor consists within this individual. Are they more of an exertive dominant Personality A, or a more passive Personality B? One should be prepared to know maximum and minimum extremes one will waver, as well as the other, and then make a solid logical and honest agreement. Keeping one’s word and processing a fair agreement meets with all standards of justice and integrity. When many nations or individuals break deals, conflict is always unavoidable. This is why the deal should always be just and not overtly benefiting oneself. Trouble will only emerge later. This should be seen as looking out for the future and avoiding unneeded drama in future days.

Conclusion

Personal interaction will always breed conflict because different people have different opinions. It is important to protect one’s own interests but to also be fair and just. This is accomplished through communication, listening and understanding the person. It involves anger management and emotional restraint in how one debates another view. It demands logic, justice and a fair view of oneself. When these qualities are missing, conflict resolution is moot and conflict itself will emerge.

Abuse In Relationships

Posted on May 31, 2023 by Mark Moran

Abuse occurs in relationships too commonly. Physical abuse receives the most recognition due to the danger to women, but abuse in relationships occur mentally and emotionally as well. Both genders are equal culprits in how they treat their significant other. Emotional abuse goes unnoticed for many years and can add a mental price on the other person. It is important to identify mental abuse and find solutions to end it via better boundaries, counseling or leaving the situation. Of course if physical abuse occurs, it is critical to remove oneself immediately, find help or call the police.

Anger Management and Controlling a Temper

Posted on January 11, 2023 by Mark Moran

Losing one’s temper can be in the moment due to a bad day but it could also be a habit due to past trauma and issues. The ability to communicate with one’s subconscious at a more clear level can help an individual cope and deal with unpleasantries throughout the day in a more calm manner. Rapid Transformational Therapy looks to help individuals talk more with their subconscious and understand why tempers can flare and how to control those tempers better.

Losing one’s temper should never be an option even if in the right. Control of one’s temper is a life skill one can work on with anger management

Anger Management and Rapid Transformational Therapy can help an individuals identify their anger source and also find ways to better cope with the anger by releasing whatever is holding one hostage to anger. The article, “Lose Your Temper Often? Learn How to Get that Monster in Control” by Mahima Razdan takes a closer look at Rapid Transformational Therapy and its use with Anger Management. The author points out that individuals can regain some control of their lives by proper utilization of these techniques and keep the monster of anger under control. The article states,

“RTT helps you transform your negative beliefs about yourself, such as ‘I can’t cope’, into better ones that serve you, like ‘I can overcome any challenges that I face’. Programming this positive story into your mind will make huge shifts in your reaction — you will start to react more and more from a place of strength and confidence. This shift will, as a consequence, start to positively impact your relationships. RTT can help you gain the control you need to approach the same situation differently. Once you change your mindset, you will change your reality.”

Commentary

The causes of a temper can be multifaceted and are likely contingent on an individual’s physiological, psychological, and environmental factors. For example, a person may have an increased propensity for outbursts due to a genetic predisposition towards emotional instability or impulsivity. Additionally, psychosocial stressors such as interpersonal conflict or economic insecurity can contribute to the development of a temper. Cognitively, a temper may result from the individual’s appraisal of a situation as threatening or frustrating and their subsequent decision to engage in aggressive behavior as an adaptive coping strategy in order to restore their sense of control. Emotionally, anger is often caused by perceived injustice or violation of personal values and beliefs.

Anger in itself is not bad but when misused or allowed to take control of a situation then it can become dangerous to everyone involved. It is hence important to utilize Anger Management techniques. Controlling one’s temper is key and important to a healthier life style. Controlling one’s temper is an integral part of self-regulation, as it involves the ability to inhibit impulsivity and channel emotional reactions in a constructive way. It requires individuals to be aware of their visceral reactions, recognize the emotions behind them, and attempt to modulate these affective states in order to maintain composure. This process necessitates a degree of cognitive control, whereby conscious thought can override automatic responses and facilitate more appropriate behavior.

Controlling one’s temper can be achieved through a variety of techniques, such as cognitive reappraisal or emotion regulation strategies. Cognitive reappraisal involves the conscious reframing of situations in order to reduce emotional arousal and diminish the likelihood of an outburst. Additionally, emotion regulation strategies involve techniques such as distraction, relaxation, and mindfulness that help to reorient attention away from anger-provoking stimuli. Cognitive restructuring involves examining one’s beliefs about the situation that has caused their temper to flare up and assessing whether those beliefs are realistic and helpful. Mindfulness involves becoming aware of one’s emotions and thoughts without attempting to suppress or judge them; instead, an individual is encouraged to observe them from a non-judgmental stance.

Anger Management

In trying to control a temper, Anger Management can help provide insight and skills to manage one’s temper. While one may have a right no be angry, one never has a right to lose control. Anger Management can help individuals control a temper and live a better life.

Anger management techniques refer to a suite of approaches for modulating emotion regulation, with the ultimate aim of mitigating maladaptive reactive behaviors. These techniques may include cognitive restructuring, somatic techniques, problem solving strategies and emotional regulation strategies. Cognitive restructuring involves identifying irrational cognitions associated with anger and replacing them with more adaptive thoughts. Somatic techniques involve using physical sensations to reduce emotional arousal such as deep breathing or relaxation exercises.

Conclusion

In conclusion, controlling our temper is an important life skill that we can all benefit from. Through practice, patience and understanding, anyone can learn to manage their anger. Taking the time to reflect on a situation before responding and learning to express emotions in a healthy way can help us develop better relationships with others, as well as ourselves. Moreover, it can make all aspects of life more enjoyable and meaningful, as we free ourselves from negative thoughts and feelings of anger. In addition, Anger management is an important skill for everyone. It takes effort and practice, but the results are well worth it. Improved relationships, better physical health, and increased mental clarity are just a few of the benefits that come from mastering this tool. Additionally, with repeated practice, anger management skills can become automatic responses to difficult situations. This means less time wasted thinking about how to respond and more time spent managing emotions in a healthy way.

Those trained in Anger Management can help individuals utilize various techniques and skills to handle stressful situations and deal with anger in a constructive way.

The Emotion of Anger and Controlling It

Posted on January 3, 2023 by Mark Moran

Anger is a human emotion and hence neutral in regards to being bad or good. It is a natural response to injustice and frustration of achieving an end. Intent and how it is unleashed, combined with if it is controlled or uncontrolled all play roles in assigning if it is bad or good.

Anger that is not processed properly can be destructive and full of vice as well as unhealthy over long period of times. It can destroy lives, families, careers and end up resulting in crime and prison.

Uncontrolled anger can rip apart lives, families, careers and lead to incarceration. Please review AIHCP’s Anger Management Certification

Anger Management is hence an important life skill. Properly channeling anger is key to a successful life. Anger Management teaches individuals how to identify anger triggers and properly cope with the emotion.

Anger is a powerful emotion that can have both positive and negative effects on our lives. It can help us take action, stand up for ourselves, and protect those around us. On the other hand, anger can be destructive, leading to destructive behavior, resentment, and even violence. That’s why it’s important to learn how to manage anger and find healthy ways to express it. In this article, we’ll explore the benefits of anger management, how to identify emotions and triggers, and techniques for controlling your anger.

Introduction to Anger Management

Anger Management can help curb unhealthy angry outbursts and help one live a more healthy and peaceful life.

Anger management is a set of skills and strategies designed to help people better understand their emotions and how to manage them in a healthy way. It involves learning to recognize and express anger, as well as understanding the causes and triggers of anger. It also involves understanding the consequences of our behavior and learning to manage our responses in positive ways.

The goal of anger management is not to suppress or deny our feelings, but to learn to express them in a safe and constructive way. It’s not about avoiding anger entirely, but rather about understanding it, managing it, and using it in a positive way. It is especially important to manage one’s anger when on the road, at work, or when around others. Accidents, fights and physical injuries can all result from allowing anger to gain the upper hand over someone.

Benefits of Anger Management

The benefits of anger management are numerous. It can help improve communication, relationships, and overall quality of life. It can help you manage stress, tension, and frustration in a more effective way. It can also help you make better decisions, handle difficult conversations, and resolve conflicts more effectively.

It can also help you identify and work through underlying issues, such as feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or lonely. Finally, it can help you develop healthier coping mechanisms and find healthier outlets for your emotions.

Identifying Emotions and Triggers

The first step in mastering your emotions is to identify and understand what triggers your anger. This involves looking at the situations, people, and events that lead to anger and identifying the underlying emotions. It’s important to understand what triggers your anger, as this can help you manage it more effectively.

Once you have identified your triggers, you can start to recognize the emotions they trigger. This could include things like feeling disrespected, frustrated, or overwhelmed. It’s important to recognize these feelings and not try to ignore them. Once you have identified and accepted the emotions, you can start to look for healthier ways to manage and express them.

Ways to Manage Stress and Anxiety

Stress and anxiety can often lead to anger, so it’s important to learn how to manage these emotions. Exercise and mindfulness can both be effective tools for managing stress and anxiety. Exercise can help to reduce tension, release endorphins, and improve overall mood. Mindfulness can help to keep you grounded in the present moment and can help to reduce feelings of stress and anxiety.

It’s also important to get adequate rest and practice self-care. Taking time for yourself can help to reduce stress and give you the energy and focus to better manage your emotions. Finding healthy outlets for your emotions, such as art, music, or writing, can also be beneficial.

Techniques for Controlling Your Anger

Once you have identified your triggers and emotions, you can start to develop strategies for controlling your anger. This could include taking a few deep breaths and counting to ten. It could also involve walking away from the situation and focusing on calming activities, such as listening to music or taking a hot bath.

It’s also important to practice self-talk and positive affirmations. This could involve telling yourself, “I can handle this,” or “I can find a better way to handle this.” It’s also important to recognize that it’s okay to feel angry, but to learn how to express it in healthier ways.

It’s also important to take responsibility for your own actions and try to compromise when possible.

How to Avoid Anger Outbursts

Outbursts of anger can be damaging to relationships and can lead to destructive behavior. That’s why it’s important to learn how to avoid anger outbursts. This could involve recognizing when you are getting angry and taking a few deep breaths to calm down.

Anger Management Certification Blog on Unresolved Anger and Forgiveness

Posted on May 3, 2022May 3, 2022 by Mark Moran

In any type of trauma, there is anger. Anger can continue to feed the trauma and keep it alive longer. Anger can also weaken the individual overtime through depression, fatigue and anxiety. Keeping strong emotional anger is unhealthy and it is important to learn how to properly release anger. This does not mean one does not have a right to be angry over the offense and trauma, but i does mean one must escape the anger before it becomes toxic.

Anger keeps trauma highly charged and weakens the self. It leads to sarcasm and bitterness in life, as well as resentment and possibly revenge. Revenge leads to further destruction and a cycle of violence and continued trauma. Furthermore, anger that prevents forgiveness stunts social growth. It prevents trust, increases hatred and forces oneself to close off to others. Hence it is important more so for one’s health to resolve anger and forgive than for the lack of worthiness of the offender to receive it.

Unresolved anger can lead to health issues. It is far better to release anger for oneself. Please also review AIHCP’s Anger Management Certification

Many feel forgiveness is impossible. Perhaps they view the offense as unforgivable. Rape, molestation and murder are sometimes very hard things to forgive. These things represent the worst within human society. Other things may be easier to forgive, but regardless of the degree, if one associates an action as unforgivable, then it becomes an anchor around one’s neck. Others feel they must protect themselves and must remain bitter and remain closed. Those who were physically abused, may feel their anger empowers them and protects them from ever being hurt again by never letting someone get close to them. Others feel they may betray themselves or their loved one, if they forgive the perpetrator. These are all blocks to resolving unhealthy anger and moving forward in life.

Anger is an emotion that may very well be important to the event. It is in fact a true emotion in trauma. It is OK to be angry. It is OK to feel the anger, but eventually, the anger can become toxic. It is important to start to experience the anger and understand it, but in a way that allows one to remain in touch with its importance but not its ill effects. It needs to be analyzed free from the toxic charge of initial rage, so one can understand its rationale and comprehend where it is aimed.

In doing so, many times, things need to be said, when those things cannot be said, then it is important to be able to find other ways to release. This is especially true when justice is not given to a particular case that prevents closure. Justice is an excellent way to help heal unresolved anger but in so many cases, justice at least in this world is not given. It is hence critical to be able to resolve anger sometimes without justice.

Some therapists suggest Gestalt Chairs, when one plays the role of both oneself and perpetrator. This allows the necessary discussion as one plays both roles. Being able to vocally express anger, confrontation and forgiveness is key. Furthermore, those with a belief of the afterlife, can find some closure knowing nothing goes unpunished before God. Ultimately, facing anger, the situation and forgiving, frees oneself from the perpetrator.

Forgiveness, however, does not mean minimizing the event, or condoning it, or forgetting it, or trusting the same person again. It does not dismiss the event, but it frees oneself from the emotional tie of the perpetrator. Even if one does not ask, it can free oneself. Forgiveness does not mean the individual still must pay a debt in this life or the next but it does allow one to move forward.

It is important in some cases to ask for forgiveness, but in other cases, this may not be an option, but the key is to decide to finally heal. Being able to resolve anger and give forgiveness may have to be done in constructive ways to release. Gestalt chairs or belief in God may be the best ways to forgive and understand. One needs to try to forgive the best way they can for their own healing. Sometimes, this can be accomplished through rituals such as confession, or other forms of expression.

In can sometimes be difficult to give forgiveness. Please also review AIHCP’s Anger Management Certification

Trauma is difficult to overcome. Some trauma is more severe and some cases of anger are harder to overcome. It is not an issue of denying the evil that occurred but it is an issue of healing and finding peace for oneself. Holding on to anger does not punish the perpetrator but it punishes the self and allows the perpetrator to continue to hurt the victim. It is hence important to learn ways to live and forgive before one’s life is totally destroyed.
