De-Escalate:
How to Calm An Angry Person in 90 Seconds or Less
Apply a Proven Method To Transform Conflicts Into Opportunities
For Deeper Connection and Understanding.
Learn Conflict Resolution Skills Backed By Neuroscience and Honed Through Real-World Application
Imagine being immune to insults, disrespect and explosive emotions. It's actually easier than you might think. 

In fact, anyone can learn this technique to foster genuine understanding, compassion, and connection with anyone—even in high-conflict situations that once felt hopeless. 

These are the skills that can reshape not only your personal life, but also the environments in which you live, teach, lead, and interact.

In my De-Escalate Online Masterclass you'll learn how to:

•Calm any angry person (including yourself) in seconds: Dissolve hostility and transform anger into understanding.
•Stay cool under intense pressure: Remain composed and empathetic, even when others lose their temper.
•Build genuine, lasting emotional connections: Move past shallow, pop-psychology fixes and learn how to truly “listen another person into existence.”
•Embrace an effortless approach to communication: Prevent misunderstandings and conflicts by acknowledging emotions rather than ignoring or battling them.
•Create a culture of empathy: Watch as respectful listening, affect labeling, and compassionate presence spread organically, reshaping entire groups, families, and communities.

This is about more than just solving a single argument or calming one upset child. It’s about establishing a foundational skill set that changes how you navigate your life.
Create easier, deeper, and more rewarding relationships with your children, partner, family, and community.
The secret is three essential steps:

1. Listen beyond the words being spoken to understand the true emotions in play.
2. Reflect those emotions back to the speaker, helping them feel heard and validated.
3. Apply neuroscience-backed techniques to quiet the emotional centers of the brain.

These techniques have been instrumental in transforming lives in some of the most challenging environments.

In the Prison of Peace project, co-founded by Noll and Laurel Kaufer, thousands of California prisoners learned to resolve conflicts peacefully using these methods. The skills de-escalated fights and disagreements within the prison walls, and helped inmates build healthier relationships with their families and communities.

Whether you're dealing with a troublesome teen, a stressed colleague, or a politically polarized family member, the strategies outlined in our online course provide concrete steps to keep you centered and in control.
Douglas E. Noll, JD, MA
In 2000, Douglas E. Noll left a successful career as a trial lawyer to become a peacemaker. He is an award-winning author, teacher, trainer, and a highly experienced mediator. 

With Laurel Kaufer, he founded Prison of Peace in 2009. The Prison of Peace project has been the most profound peace training he has conducted thus far in his career. Inmates who have gone through his program have learned and applied deep, empathic listening skills, leadership skills, and problem-solving skills to reduce violence in their prison communities. 

The project motivated him to expand the principles of Prison of Peace as much as possible so that every person wanting to learn the skills of peace may do so.  To further this goal, he has written "De-Escalate: How to Calm an Angry Person in 90 Seconds".

Got my copy today and it exceeds every expectation I had for it. I so wish I'd had it for my 30 plus years as a teacher, school counselor and Marriage and Family counselor. It summarizes every effective technique I spent years studying and using. Should be in every school and home! Truly works with brain chemistry to calm the anger and switch on the peaceful solutions part of the brain...

I am a lawyer and a mediator with almost 40 years in the practice field. I can tell you that this training will be a recommended piece in my work. You can find simple, real, and useful tips and techniques to use with parties and clients. Just the alert of psychological invalidation and emotional recognition and how to do it make me say these methods must be used in every mediation and mediation training!

I've faced pretty intense situations as an interim executive. This training holds the key to succeeding when it's toughest.

FIRST de-escalate, THEN reason or negotiate. But HOW exactly do you calm a rampaging elephant? This training has the brilliantly simple answer, and it works immediately.

This training is for everyone.  As a Professional Mediator, I have used these skills almost on a daily basis. Doug Noll was my instructor at a class I took at Pepperdine University, and after the class I have recommended it to every friend I have.

This is the most amazing online training!!! Incredible tools that are life savers. Before watching the videos and practicing these tools, conflict was something that I ran from and would have huge anxiety around. Now every interaction is easy, safe, and empowering. This is a must-have for all humans. Relationship life saver. MUST read if you want peace and are tired of anxiety and stress.
Alex G.
In our polarized society, where civility, courtesy, patience, respect, and empathy are in short supply, De-Escalate provides the framework and practical tools for helping people bridge their differences, co-exist peacefully, and live more meaningfully. A must-read for anyone dealing with emotional people, meaning everyone.

Essential skills for everyone. Learning to keep your composure and calm someone down, even when they are insulting you, could be a life changer for many. I will be putting the techniques to use in all areas of my life. Ignore the words and hear the emotion!
