“…Within school psychology, although “there are no specific diagnostic anger disorders,” there are “different Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed. ; DSM-5 ; American Psychiatric Association, 2013) diagnostic categories that psychologists might use to classify youth with anger problems” (DiGiuseppe et al, 2017, p. 349). When anger is explicitly described as a disease state it can also be treated with psychiatric medicine (Edwards et al, 2009):Avenues for treating anger include medications such as antidepressants and anticonvulsants, the latter of which help with impulsivity, and a class of drugs called serenics, which .…”

Background and Purpose: Anger is implicated in nearly every social pathology, from war to bullying to child abuse. Yet, it is also the spark of reform for nearly every positive social movement, from civil rights to labor rights to handicapped rights. This article examines how anger has been understood and misunderstood across different discursive spaces in society, research, and education to offer a peace-promoting, emotional ecology theory of anger to foster emotional growth and political change. Research Design: This article employs theoretical research, which is a logical exploration of a system of beliefs and assumption to increase understanding, develop new theory, and explore implications. Findings: Anger is reconceptualized as a crucial emotional and political experience rooted in the emotional ecologies and histories of family, school, and society. Three distinctive features characterize it: An ethical response, an emotional response, and an action response. Five steps to anger resolution follow from this analysis including: mindfulness, compassion, insight, action, and a therapeutic response (or MCIAT). Recommendations: Future studies on anger should span developmental stages and include ways anger intersects with curricula, emotional experience and intellectual understanding. Teachers, social workers, and therapists must work together to address the emotional and political aspects of anger in education. Addressing our most painful and angering global challenges in all their complexity requires full integration of the personal, educational, civic, and therapeutic dimensions of emotional ecology and this worthy enterprise should inspire interdisciplinary dialogue and future research.

Aim: Total population in the coming years is majorly going to be adolescents. Adolescents are challenged with a number of stressors and peer pressure at home and school. 'Anger' is an emotion which leads adolescents to substance abuse, violence, aggression, accidents and many more. There are very few studies done on the health, wellbeing of Indian adolescents. This study was mainly aimed to understand anger, its Physiological arousal, and whether HRV can be a good indicator to study anger, using integrated yoga module. Materials and methods: A pre-and post-study was conducted in high school with yoga as an intervention. Yoga sessions were conducted during school hours for one month with weekly five sessions of forty minutes each. Data was collected using Bio-nomadix logger before the intervention and a month later after the intervention. Conclusion: There was significant reduction of sympathetic tone in yoga group. Vagal tone increased in yoga group whereas it decreased in controlled group.
