by Jeanine Hull (Author) Based on six years of intensive research, Making Peace with Conflict walks readers, in easily understood prose, through the evolution of the human threat response and educates us about how fear, anger, and trauma contribute to the regular appearance of conflict in our lives. A scientifically comprehensive and informative guide, this is the first book that explicitly ties recent revolutionary trauma research to the way we deal with conflict. While we know all too well the pain of conflict, few realize how engaging with it can deepen trust and strengthen relationships. Like navigating a labyrinth, the process of harnessing the connective power of conflict lies in trusting the process, putting one foot in front of the other, and maintaining progress toward the center-a place of integration, peace, and ease. Readers of the book will: - Understand how their bodies respond to their perception of conflict, including responses commonly known as "flight or fight" and freeze or faint; - Learn ways to calm those responses in ourselves and others; - Identify the epidemic of trauma and the role trauma plays in conflict and our lives; - Understand how and why to endure the temporary discomfort of conflict for the long-term benefits of greater trust and deeper connection with others; - Recognize that we are all doing our best to survive. Making Peace with Conflict is the book we've been waiting for: a straightforward and non-touchy feely process that allows us to engage productively and calmly with intense emotions, and reap the benefits of increased trust and deeper relationships when we do.

Had a wonderful Labor Day with my family and friends, but I am excited to get back to work tomorrow. A four day work week is often a struggle for me because I try to fit 5 days of work into 4 (as many people do). This week our group theme is appropriate anger and conflict resolution. I teach that anger is a healthy emotion, but how you handle it is a skill that we continuously cultivate. Tuesday: Transition from last week's theme (no bullying) to this week's theme. My group LOVES videos. They are the most attentive when I break the iPad out and show them something on YouTube. This short from Pixar has some bird bullying and then their reaction to anger is one that does not produce a desired result. Adorable and open-ended. I give very little guidance at the beginning of processing projects and activities as I like to see where the kids take it first. Link to this YouTube Video We will then define anger and discuss the importance of learning conflict resolution skills. We will connect skills that we often use that can be used as conflict resolution skills, like iContact and iMessage. We will connect different levels of frustration tolerance to filling up different sized buckets. Our goal this week will be to make our bucket a little bigger and to chose how we empty our water. Wednesday: Anger Map and Triggers. What makes us mad? What fills up our bucket? Complete and share an anger map to gain insight and to practice communication skills. Click for Anger Map Printable Thursday: Reaction Mapping. The kids love this exercise. I roll out the butcher paper and draw the outline of a huge PlayStation controller. They then decide how to direct a character to react to anger. Every button = a reaction. I usually to groups of 3-4 so they can share their creations with the group. I enjoy displaying the end result so that I can refer to them... just in case conflict occurs. I can empower them to choose which reaction from their controller that they want to use at that time. Some of the reactions are positive and some are negative. All have a consequence. Click for link to example via Pinterest (This is a test taking strategy poster, but it is where I originally got the idea for the activity. I just free hand the outline and leave the rest up to the kids!) Friday: Apologies and making it right! I created an adaptation of the below apology form for my group this summer and it was a huge hit (I obviously deleted the "I was drunk" portion). What I like about it is that it gets to kids to think about their behavior, reaction, and another's response in a sequential way. Link via Pinterest When kids are ready to "say sorry" I say... Well, thats a good start. This helps really mend and add some humor to the art of apologizing. It walks kids through who was involved, when it happened, what they did, how it was portrayed (behavior, words, action, inaction... this may be my favorite part!!), WHY it happened, and at the bottom it states; "this note represents my awareness that my words or actions in some way upset, hurt, or otherwise alienated you. In light of this understanding, I __ WILL ___ WILL NOT do it again." We have used these in group since July. I encourage clients to use them with kids, grown ups, siblings, teachers, staff, bus drivers, anyone who they want to express themselves to. Many of my families use these in their homes as well. Most importantly, it builds empathy. Beautiful. I feel like I wrote a lot, but these are my notes for leading group this week. Things can get pretty hectic around children so I like to have my curriculum pretty well laid out. However, some of the best groups are when I throw the plan out the window and go where the kids need to go that day :) "Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others." Philippians 2, 3-4

Anger triggers are situations or events that make someone feel mad or upset. In teens, these triggers can vary, such as conflicts with friends or family, academic stress, and feeling misunderstood. Understanding and addressing these triggers is important especially if teens are unaware of it and express it in ways that harm themselves and other people. The Anger Triggers worksheet is a tool to figure out what makes a teenager angry and teach them how to manage their feelings healthily. It has a scale of 0 to 10, where 10 is considered furious and 0 is calm so teens can properly rate how each anger trigger affects them. They can also add triggers not found on the list and describe their current coping strategies. Using this worksheet helps teens gain control over their emotions and build healthier ways to cope with anger. For instance, if a teen rates homework stress as 8 on the scale, they can then practice using relaxation techniques to manage that anger more effectively. Once the worksheet is completed, parents, teachers, and mental health professionals can introduce the Anger Coping Skills for Teens handout for additional support. *This item is an instant digital download.
