With your mentor, fill out the action plan below

1. Identifying anger exercise

Step 1 : Recall an episode that has made you feel very angry recently. Write down what happened.

Step 2 : How did the incident make you feel? Examine your emotions carefully. What words would you use to decribe how you felt? Anger may only be a part of what you felt. Ded you feel sad? Disappointed? Worried? Did you feel you had been treated unfairly?

Step 3: Did you feel any changes within your body? For example, did you feel hot? Did you feel that your blood pressure was rising? Did your muscles feel tense?

Step 4: What action did you take? Perhaps you wanted to take a certain action (maybe even wanting to hit someone) but didn’t?

Step 5: Could this incident have happened to someone else – without them making them feel as angry? What sort of person would not have got angry? How would they have been different from you?
