Anger is one of the most difficult emotions for human beings to cope with. If our anger is unmanaged, we can end up behaving in destructive ways towards both ourselves and other people, and can face relationship difficulties and negative health consequences.
Far from 'letting ourselves off the hook', recent research has shown that by developing compassion towards ourselves and others and compassionately understanding our anger and the factors that fuel it, we can connect with the courage and skills needed to change our behaviour. This fascinating and practical self-help guide will give you a number of powerful techniques for tackling your anger head on and taking control of it, rather than letting it control you.
USING THIS WORKBOOK, READERS WILL LEARN ABOUT:
- The factors that trigger and fuel our anger, how it works and how to change the anger response
- Specific skills to manage anger and improve relationships
Filled with interactive exercises and practical skills, The Anger Workbook will guide you in your journey to transform your anger into inner strength.
THE COMPASSIONATE MIND APPROACH
The self-help books in this series are based on compassion focused therapy (CFT, developed by series editor Paul Gilbert). This brings together an understanding of how our mind can cause us difficulties but also provides us with a powerful solution in the shape of mindfulness and compassion. It teaches ways to stimulate the part of the brain connected with kindness, warmth, compassion and safeness, and to calm the part that makes us feel, anxious, angry, sad or depressed.
This is the ideal antidote for the anger and irritation we feel and experience in our busy and competitive lives -- Professor Paul Gilbert OBE, Founder of Compassion Focused Therapy
