Help for anger management -- from NYT bestselling author Gary Chapman
Getting angry is easy. Daily annoyances or mistakes poke at us. Then feelings of disappointment, hurt, rejection, or embarrassment begin to stir. And once our anger is aroused, that unwieldy cluster of emotions can make our thoughts and actions feel impossible to control.
Anger is a cruel master. If you struggle even a little with anger, you know how it feels to get mad too easily. To lash out at someone you love. To hold onto frustration. You might even notice others seem uneasy around you.
You know anger is hurting your life, but you don't know how to fix it.
There is hope. When you understand why you get angry and what to do about it, you can change the course of your life for the better. In Anger: Taming a Powerful Emotion, counselor Gary Chapman shares surprising insights about anger, its effect on relationships, and how to overcome it. His advice and real-life examples will help you:
Understand yourself better
Overcome shame, denial, and bitterness
