Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Anger Management Classes - Nine Frequently Asked Questions

By Broyde McDonald

What are Anger Management Classes?

Anger management classes aim to teach anger management skills in an educational rather than a psychotherapy setting. Classes last for an hour or two and have durations of ten hours and up depending upon your needs.

Who needs to take the classes?

If you are ordered to take anger classes by court, or by your employer you should take a class.

If you are having problems with other people and can benefit from better communication, listening and judgment skills, and also expectation management and empathy skills, you will learn all this and more in our anger management classes.

Are Anger Management Classes and individual counseling different?

The main difference between the two is, the class is done in a group setting, unless it is an online course.

Individual counseling takes place one on one. You will have a personal coach guide you through the lessons you need to learn.

Can an Anger Management Class be taken in different ways?

There are individual coaching classes, home study courses, group classes, and online study courses.

How are the online courses?

The online courses cover the same content as the group class, but it is completely online in our online classroom.

Can I expect that Anger Management Classes are going to help me?

You know that anger management classes are going to help because they have helped 96% of those who have used them in the past.

All you need to bring is a good reason why you want to change. The people who came to the classes with a reason to change have been successful in making changes.

The methods we use have been tested with experience and evidence from the past.

How do I know if I have an "Anger Problem?"

There are many ways to tell if you have an anger problem. The way you will tell is by seeing if your anger leaves you feeling upset in your mind or body.

When you get angry, do you get nauseas, out of breath, dizzy or start to sweat? Do you feel guilty, anxious, ashamed or depressed? Are you angry for periods of time that you think are too long? Do you have relationship problems because of anger? Are you angry too frequently? Do you lose control of yourself when you get mad?

If your answer to a lot of those questions are yes then you can use some help with managing your anger.

How does anger affect people's health?

Uncontrolled anger is bad for your health. There are links to anger and heart disease. Anger is thought to be a leading player in heart attacks in men under the age of 55 years.

Anger has also been linked to strokes as well.

What are the costs of anger management classes?

Anger management classes do not cost a lot. You are looking at a range of $35 - $195 per class.
