others! Anger Management For Dummies, UK Edition shows you
how to work through feelings of rage, emerge from the red mist, and
lead a healthier, happier and more positive life.

recognise and deal with the underlying causes of anger at work, in
relationships and in your personal life – and teaches you how to
stay positive in spite of all the stresses and strains life throws
your way. From letting go of resentments, preventing new rage and
dealing with the anger of others, to improving self-expression,
honing spiritual calm and getting a good night’s sleep, this
user-friendly guide tackles the latest anger-busting exercises and
therapies (including CBT) and demonstrates how to deal with anger
constructively.
