Managing Angry Moments (MAM)

IS IT FOR YOU?
Anger is an emotion. An average person experiences one anger related incident each day. 
 
MAM is a prevention-oriented educational course that is based on best practices effective in helping participants identify personal anger generating situations and applying learned skills to successfully manage these events. MAM is not a treatment process.

The purpose of the MAM course is to examine and address issues of anger (while they are still manageable) in order to prevent the possibility of their escalation to physical or verbal aggression. It is designed to meet the needs of a non-violent CF population. The expected outcome for participants who complete the MAM course includes: improved relationships in the workplace, at home and in the community, enhanced team cohesion, more effective problem solving skills and reduced levels of stress and anxiety when faced with anger generating events and circumstances.

Each module lasts approximately 2 ½ hours and is presented over a nine sessions. The modules are as follows:
 Orientation to MAM and expectations 
 1. Understanding Anger; 
 2. Self-Assessment-What is my relationship to Anger? 
 3. Beliefs and Triggers; 
 4. Managing yourself in Anger provoking situations; 
 5. Managing Conflict with Others; 
 6. Review and Practice of Skills Learned; 
 7. Forgiveness; and  
 8. Preventing return of Old Unproductive Behaviour. 
  
MAM is for any individual who seeks to effectively manage anger in the face of triggering circumstances.
