About this listen

Manage your anger and have a happier, more peaceful relationship with your kids and others.

Even if you’re usually even-tempered, there are times when your kids know exactly how to push your buttons. You lose your temper, yell at them, and then feel guilty because they’re just kids.

Or even worse, you fly into an uncontrollable rage and go from zero to 1000 degrees Fahrenheit in a nanosecond, then feel embarrassed because you know you completely overreacted.

So do you want to know how to:

  • Stop lashing out at your kids without warning and get your kids to listen without having to yell?
  • Break vicious cycles of anger built up over generations and avoid raising kids with the same anger issues as you?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you’re not alone.

The trick is to understand where your anger comes from so that you can control it before it controls you.

In this guide, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:

  • Why do you often explode so quickly or snap over something trivial for no reason?
  • The three-step quick-release action that Taoists have used for 2000 years to get you past explosive anger when the blood rushes to your head.
  • How you can stop being a hurricane mom so that you don’t cause long-term psychological damage to your kids and affect their personalities.
  • How to encourage your kids to own their feelings and not suppress their emotions, and teach them self-regulation over “tantrum storms”.

And more!

Whether your anger is sparked by your childhood trauma or your kids not listening to you, you can overcome it by changing how you think and reacting to triggers.

If you want to stop flying into a rage and get on a healthy relationship footing with your kids, then you should listen to this audiobook!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Not just for parents! for everyone!

While I am a dad to a 1 and 3 year old, this book can definitely help non-parents as well. For me, my triggers were described dead on, and the strategies to help mitigate my boiling anger were clear, practical, and achievable. One of the most helpful observations was about how most of my anger comes from fear, and I’m very appreciative for all the info presented in this audio book.

Learn to raise happy, confident kids!

"Diffusing Anger" is a great listen that gives practical strategies for parents to help manage tantrums and anger with their children. Definitely a great resource for any parent looking to diversify their techniques for handling upset children. The 3-step quick release action is a new concept to me, but seems like a powerful way to handle explosive reactions from children.

This book is highly recommended to any parent looking to either disrupt or completely break destructive anger cycles with their children, and should absolutely contribute to a more positive, healthier relationship between parents and children!

Good book, gives a lot of ideas on how to address anger

I liked that it explored a lot of the sides of anger. It gives many useful ideas, including how we need to find the root cause of anger, not just manage it. It gives some good insights on dealing with and managing anger while parenting, and it gives some information about supplements, etc.

Spot on! Hit the nail on the head!

This audiobook perfectly describes the reasoning behind our anger as parents and children. The author brilliantly tackled the challenges we all face in controlling our anger as parents and as kids and strategically provided examples to help us overcome those challenges to have a more connected and harmonious family.

In the beginning, the author perfectly describes our anger and how those around us perceive it. No one wants to be around angry people; hence everyone tends to avoid those who are angry. I love how they explained the why and how of anger and how that can affect our children. I also loved the description given regarding how "fury is a defense mechanism against low self-esteem." We tend to hide behind our anger due to fear, stress, unhappiness, inadequacy, and other feelings instead of taking time to cool down and discuss our emotions in a more controlled and rational state. When we are angry, we are negatively affecting and influencing our children. This is a perfect book to help us gain perspective into our attitude and how we can change those negative anger tendencies into better, healthier ones to help our children and teach them these skills to overcome their anger.

The narration was done very well, and there were very brief pauses between chapters and sections, which was fabulous for me. I highly recommend this book to everyone struggling with anger in themselves or a loved one: fantastic insights and helpful techniques to learn and apply. :)

For any parent struggling with anger management

I recently listened to the audiobook version of "Diffusing Anger" and was blown away by how helpful it was for my own personal growth. As a parent, I have struggled with managing my anger in the past, and this audiobook provided me with practical solutions to help mitigate my triggers and communicate more effectively with my children.

First, the section on "Mitigating Triggers" was eye-opening and made me realize how important it is to identify what triggers my anger and how to manage them. And I really appreciated the part where the author talks about raising happy, confident children because it gave me hope that by modeling healthy anger management techniques, I can help my children learn how to manage their own emotions and build their confidence.

The narrator of the audiobook was also such a pleasure to listen to. Her soothing voice made it easy to absorb the information and put it into practice. Overall, I highly recommend "Diffusing Anger" to any parent struggling with anger management or really just any parent who wants to decrease how angry they feel on a daily basis. It's a must-read that can truly change your life and your family dynamics for the better.
