The Anger Advantage
The Surprising Benefits of Anger and How it Can Change Your Life
Deborah Cox, Ph.D., Karin H. Bruckner, M.A., L.P.C., and Sally D. Stabb, Ph.D..html
From a dynamic trio of clinical researchers, a revolutionary self-help guide that reveals the surprising benefits of anger in transforming women's lives.
Conventional wisdom in self-help circles dictates that angry reactions are natural but not especially healthyÑand women in particular should learn how to "temper" their anger and "let it go." But after seven years of study that received international media attention, psychologists Deborah Cox, Sally Stabb and psychotherapist Karin Bruckner have concluded that anger can fuel a woman's success, even her survival. Whereas diverting anger can result in a host of mental, physical and emotional problems, expressing anger directly yields immediate payoffs and often sparks positive, life-altering change. The Anger Advantage weaves these findings into a groundbreaking paradigm for dealing with angry emotions, helping women to:
- Achieve heightened clarity from anger
- Use anger to break free of stagnant situations and harmful relationships
- Banish irrational guilt and shame
- Alleviate medical problems caused by diverted anger
- Regain a healthy set of boundaries and sense of self
Exposing the empowering side of rage and charting provocative new territory in women's psychology and self-help, The Anger Advantage offers a watershed of life-changing, proven wisdom for women eager to take charge of their lives.
