About National Anger Awareness Week
The reasons for the National Anger Awareness Week is to increase understanding of the underlying causes of anger and equip people to reduce their own, and other’s, anger in an effective way.
Mike Fisher, founder of BAAM and author of the self-help book Beating Anger, explains: “It almost seems impossible to have Christmas without a row these days. Someone’s fed-up in the kitchen, we can be over-loaded at work, everyone wants something different on the TV, relationships with partners and families are under the microscope, the kids are playing up and your parents-in-law are coming to stay…it’s a stressful time.
“National Anger Awareness Week encourages everyone to prepare themselves with simple coping strategies to create an atmosphere of calm and cooperation. Of course, what you can learn from the Keep Your Cool Kit can be used at any time of year to help deal with those difficult emotions.”
“National Anger Awareness Week is all about learning to take control of your behaviour. Everyone feels angry at some time; what matters is how you express that anger”

1. Our generic Keep Your Cool Kit to be used all year round. The first part of the BAAM Keep Your Cool Kit, The Rage Gauge, is a simple four-stage process for highlighting anger issues and exploring ways to release this emotion. The Rage Gauge teaches users to express anger and deal with it in appropriate, healthy and positive ways.
The kit also contains some simple rules for anger management with advice on good calming strategies. The BAAM Keep Your Cool Kit then takes you through the Clearing Process, which helps you express your anger in an appropriate manner to stop you hanging on to conflict and building up minor issues until you explode.)
