Conflict activates the brain's salience system, which prioritizes perceived threats and impairs clarity in thinking. High-stress situations stimulate instinctual reactions that hinder cognitive flexibility. Techniques such as deep breathing and affective labeling can help regulate emotions, allowing for better engagement in conflict. By shifting perspectives from viewing conflict as a threat to seeing it as a challenge, individuals can improve their responses and develop skills for conflict resilience. This resilience not only benefits personal relationships but also enhances leadership and promotes overall well-being.
