The One-Minute Reset

    NOTICE: What triggered my anger?

  2. 2

    NAME: What might I be feeling underneath it—fear, hurt, disappointment, embarrassment, exhaustion, or an unmet physical need?

  3. 3

Private Reflection

Your notes are never saved or sent anywhere.

Spotter's Reminder

Anger is information, not instruction. One minute of reset can change the next hour.

Take some time to reflect on today's lesson and try it in real life. We recommend waiting about 24 hours before beginning the next day, but you're welcome to move at your own pace.
