Solutions for
managing conflict

by Linda Lou McQuinn

Whether in the family, with friends or in the workplace, conflict often begins with fear. Once the feedback loop has begun, it is difficult to approach potentially tough situations without stress, anxiety and anger. The chronic fatigue and pain that often develops from being in ongoing conflict only strengthens the unhealthy interactions.

Perhaps a fear of offending or hurting others prevents you from speaking up, until you erupt in a rage that seems unreasonable to the person on the receiving end-the one who doesn't realize that your anger is the result dozens of interactions where your needs were overlooked.

Or, perhaps afraid your needs won't be met, you constantly demand such a big piece of the attention "pie" that family, friends and coworkers now view you as unreasonable and ignore you. Or you may be in a relationship (with a spouse, family, coworkers or a boss) in which you feel powerless to change a negative dynamic.

This power is waiting for you. It comes with a healthy emotional, mental, and physical balance that gives the calm assertiveness needed to positively change difficult situations.

Heilkunst/ Homeopathic treatment and remedies can be used to remove the disease states that cause this anxiety and stress.

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) often removes the power of the initial traumas that make trusting that your needs will be met so difficult. Learn how to gently activate the body's energy points to unblock your vital life force through a combination of tapping meridian centers and powerful visualizations.

Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) gives you the power to change how you interact with the world around you and how others react to you. It is amazing how quickly you can positively resolve conflict once NLP techniques teach you how to effectively and calmly communicate with others.
