UNDERSTANDING ANGER

Anger is one of the most misunderstood emotions.

Many people believe anger itself is the problem.

In reality, anger is neither good nor bad.

Anger is information.

It tells us that something matters.

It signals that a boundary may have been crossed, an injustice has been perceived, a fear has been triggered, or an emotional need has gone unmet.

The difficulty is not usually the emotion.

The difficulty is how we respond to it.

When anger is misunderstood or unmanaged, it can damage relationships, careers, health and self-esteem.

When anger is understood and managed effectively, it can become a powerful force for positive change.

This book is designed to help you understand your anger rather than fear it.
