Smarticle - ABOS - Fight or Flight: The Psychology Behind Impulse Control

Today on this Best of Smarticle podcast we revisit a discussion we had about controlling your temper. We discuss the altercation during the Michigan vs. Wisconsin basketball game, where Michigan coach Juwan Howard was suspended for the rest of the season after a heated encounter with Wisconsin's coach. The conversation delves into the importance of taking a step back and practicing patience in high-stress situations. We reflect on personal experiences, the fight-or-flight response, and the significance of role models maintaining composure. The discussion also touches on broader themes of managing anger and understanding the deeper issues behind emotional reactions.
