About this listen

A guide to healthy anger expression.

How do you express your anger? Do you blow up? Quietly seethe? Or do you try to pretend that you're really not angry at all and just hope the feelings will go away? Most of us express anger in more than one way, but we also tend to be creatures of habit, falling back on a few predictable styles when we feel angry. Unfortunately, while some styles are appropriate in some situations, others are not - and consistently using an inappropriate style is a sure way to find yourself saddled with a huge anger problem.

This book examines the 11 most common styles of anger expression and helps you learn how to communicate your anger in healthy ways. Learn which anger styles work for different situations - and which ones lead to certain disaster. Find out how to become more flexible and creative at expressing your anger. Once you understand the whole range of anger styles, you'll be able to better manage angry feelings and use your anger as a positive force for building a better life.

Shivers

This detailed analysis of multiple styles of anger sent shivers through me. I felt a profound sense of relief when hearing the "Sneaky Anger" chapter. The authors' examples and explanations articulate my frustration when faced with passive aggression, and the consequential powerlessness I've felt countless times. I'm going to listen to this book many times, paying keener attention to my personal struggles with explosive rage - which often lights up in response to others' anger. I think my parents demonstrated the same dynamic I've reinacted in numerous partnerships. My mom says she didn't need to express anger, since my dad did it for her. I love them both, and we're all human. However, I want to get off this hamster wheel, and spend my time with more joy and creativity. I'm looking forward to implementing the advice and facing the uncomfortable truth within this amazing book.
