This Workshop is a 3-Part Series
Anger is a normal healthy emotion, neither good nor bad, although in today’s society anger often appears to be negative because of the unhealthy ways it is expressed. When anger takes centre stage, the danger is that people could lose the full expression of their emotions like the ability to express sadness, fear and love
Man box masculinity has set certain benchmarks for what it means to be a man, failing to live up to this 'male code' can damage chances of belonging. These messages have been taught from birth with phrases such as 'be strong', 'be tough', 'big boys don't cry', 'you’re the man of the house', 'be a real man', and 'be a brave little soldier'. Most boys have had to learn how to survive by joining in with the game. This has often left men with a huge burden to prove that they are fit to belong to this dominant form of masculinity and to prevent any sense of ’weakness’. Anger is seen as a strong emotion and is often the only ‘safe’ emotion men are able to express.
The workshop will include:
◙ Developing a greater understanding of the full spectrum of anger expression
◙ Exploring the psychology of anger and the 5 states of anger
◙ Learning the key roots of anger and rage
◙ Practical therapeutic tools in working effectively with men and the different states of anger

Read MoreEnjoyed all three session, even through the recordings. I have worked with many angry young men over the years and what James covered here echoes my own findings and values in my approach. I developed a programme of my own called "Taking Control" which can be greatly complimented by the content here. Also, lots there for self-reflection!! Thank you and I keep my eyes open for more. As it was not possible for me to attend live, I accessed the recordings and i was frustrated at not have access to the chat and breakout rooms. I would love to be able to attend an in-person course/seminar some time.

Read MoreI found this series really thought provoking and useful. It broke down anger in a way really relevant to my counselling practice, helping in noticing the different types of anger and breaking down ways to help the client. The delivery was perfect, I can often find training too slow and, for me, James was spot on. Thank you. Great - would recommend.
