What you'll be able to do
By the end of the 12 modules you will be able to:
- Reset
Calm your body within 90 seconds using the physiological sigh, grounding and a personal reset menu.
- Observe
Name your top three triggers, your earliest body warning signs and the exact tripwire that starts the cycle.
- Origin
Trace your anger back to its roots — primary emotions, childhood patterns, family beliefs, old hurts and shame.
- Transform
Catch hot thoughts, spot the distortion driving them and replace them with cooler thoughts you actually believe.
- Soothe
Soothe, repair and maintain: reparenting practices, repair scripts and a written relapse-prevention plan.
Progress is measured with the DAR-5 (Dimensions of Anger Reactions), a brief validated anger screening scale, taken before you start and again after Module 12.

Module 1: Understanding & Calming Your Anger
Reset — learn what anger is really doing in your brain and body, and practise three simple skills to calm the storm before it takes over.
Module 2: Identifying Your Triggers
Observe — build your personal trigger map: the people, places, feelings and old wounds that light the fuse.
Module 3: Your Anger Cycle, Type, Style & Pattern
Observe — take the Anger Styles quiz and map your personal build-up so you stop being surprised by your own reactions.
