How do you deal with anger and conflict – do you often find yourself being passive-aggressive or aggressive?
Do others in your personal and professional relationships also act and react in this manner? Are you tired of these destructive interactions?
This circular instrument presents a Relationship Playing Field upon which all relationships interact. Its center core contains the Safety Circle – a safe zone in which you should attain to reside. The following circles extended outside the safe area: Neutral Zone, Passive-Aggressive, Aggressive, and Violent.
Issues addressed:
- The Safety Circle is the space in which all communications are best enacted.
- The person with whom you are connecting may have stepped backward into the unhealthy zones as they have been raised in families and cultures where Passive-Aggression, Aggression and Violence are the “Baseline for Normal.”
- The Safety Circle contains essential boundary areas protecting you from others who continue to act and react aggressively or passive-aggressively.
- The Neutral zone is only utilized with persons with whom you do not regularly interact.
This instrument is especially helpful and effective for couples and families.
