Module 3: Emotional Cues of Anger

How can you recognize anger before it escalates?

In Module 3 of Brave Step’s Navigating Anger series, we explore the physical and emotional cues that may accompany anger, including irritability, numbness, guilt, tension and difficulty trusting others.

You’ll learn how to:

Use an anger thermometer to identify increasing intensity
Recognize your personal warning signs
Validate emotions without judgment
Explore healthy expression through journaling, art, movement and emotional-regulation techniques

You don’t need to be a counselor to make a difference; these are practical tools for everyday life.

This module is for anyone navigating anger — survivors, loved ones, allies, advocates and anyone doing community care work.
