8 Keys to Eliminating Passive-Aggressiveness (8 Keys to Mental Health)

Guidance for dealing with this common and frustrating form of behavior.

Many people often say â€œyesâ€ to something when theyâ€™d rather say â€œno.â€ They offer cooperation through words but follow up with how they really feelâ€”in actions that contradict their words. Thatâ€™s passive-aggression. At its heart, passive-aggression is about being untrue to oneself, which makes it impossible to have a clean relationship with others. Passive-aggression as a communication method doesnâ€™t make someone â€œbad.â€ It is simply a strategy learned in childhood as a coping mechanism, a hard-to-break habit. Changing passive-aggressive behavior requires knowledge, tools, and practice, as outlined here.

The book offers effective methods for transforming passive-aggression into healthy assertiveness to communicate in constructive ways through eight keys: Recognize Your Hidden Anger; Reconnect Your Emotions to Your Thoughts; Listen to Your Body; Set Healthy Boundaries; Communicate Assertively; Interact Using Mindfulness; Disable the Enabler; and Problem-Solve for Better Outcomes. Hands-on exercises are featured, enabling readers to better understand themselves.
