About this listen
It's easy to identify rage in people who lose their temper at traffic jams, unruly children, unresponsive coworkers, and unrealistic bosses. But we may not recognize more subtle manifestations of anger, such as being uncomfortable with loose ends, acting impatiently, or being overly critical. That is anger, too. And, as is so often the case, angry folks don't seem to realize that the behavior causing them problems at home or at work actually stems from unrecognized and unresolved pain and emotional injuries from the past. Is all this negative emotion inevitable, or are there choices about how to respond, choices that can improve personal relationships as well as emotional health?
The Anger Trap is a landmark book that strips away the myths and misconceptions about anger and reveals how you can learn to distinguish between healthy and unhealthy anger so that you may choose or help someone else to choose a better, more spiritually enlightened path. The Anger Trap examines the root causes of anger and can help you realize your patterns and break the destructive cycles of criticism, frustration, and irritation that hurt you and others around you.
Drawing insight from timeless spiritual wisdom as well as cutting-edge research, Dr. Carter offers practical techniques to free you from anger, its hidden insecurities, fears, and selfishness and thereby improve the quality of your home and workplace life. The book clearly illustrates how the change process works and The Anger Trap is filled with real-life examples of the ways people have come to terms with their anger by applying the concepts Dr. Carter outlines.

Imagine you're circling a crowded parking lot. Just as you spot a space, another driver races ahead and takes it. In a world of road rage, domestic violence, and professionally angry TV and radio commentators, your likely response is anger, even fury. Now imagine that instead of another driver, a cow has lumbered into that parking space and settled down. Your anger dissolves into bemusement. What has changed? Not just the occupant of the space but your perspective on the situation.

When you are criticized or rejected, do you have a tendency to lash out or withdraw entirely? Both types of kneejerk reactions can have lasting and unintended consequences, affecting our friendships, careers, families, and romantic relationships. The truth is, overreacting hurts us as much as it hurts the people around us. You may see overreacting as an unchangeable part of your personality, but in reality, this tendency, like any other, can be unlearned.

Story
In Traumatic Narcissism, Daniel Shaw presents a way of understanding the traumatic impact of narcissism as it is engendered developmentally and as it is enacted relationally. Focusing on the dynamics of narcissism in interpersonal relations, Shaw describes the relational system of what he terms the "traumatizing narcissist" as a system of subjugation - the objectification of one person in a relationship as the means of enforcing the dominance of the subjectivity of the other.

Story
Imagine you're circling a crowded parking lot. Just as you spot a space, another driver races ahead and takes it. In a world of road rage, domestic violence, and professionally angry TV and radio commentators, your likely response is anger, even fury. Now imagine that instead of another driver, a cow has lumbered into that parking space and settled down. Your anger dissolves into bemusement. What has changed? Not just the occupant of the space but your perspective on the situation.

VERY HELPFUL!!!
This was very clear and easy to understand. The author broke everything down into useable bits of wisdom & exercises. I felt convicted of my own anger. These tools are very applicable. Highly recommend it!

Poignant reminder
Most of this material was a poignant reminder of the inverse effect of anger… in that it:
• Makes us weaker instead of stronger
• Causes the message to be lost, despite its’ validity
• IS A CHOICE
• Can be exchanged with kindness, but it takes real EFFORT
Really good source for grounding back to appropriate discipline.

Learned a ton!
Wouldn’t it be great if you learned about having a healthy relationship to your anger and how to be calmly assertive in a class in high school? Unfortunately, most of us don’t learn this in school or at home. That’s why we need Les Carter’s wisdom in this world! This was one of the most useful books I’ve ever listened to. Now, I’m going to buy myself a paper copy so I can refer to it whenever needed.

Its ok to struggle...you can change!!
I currently have been struggling with my own battles on this issue. I found this book downloaded it and started listening while I was at work. I was so hooked on the information provided. I was taking it all in. It made me think about my past experiences, my triggers, how to rationalize a situation even if it may be to intense to handle at the moment, taking a break is ok when needed. This is a must listen, you will dig deep inside yourself, this book will make you think. I learned alot about myself.
