How should Christians understand anger, evaluate it, and respond for good? We all struggle with anger at times: Our plans suddenly fall through, we lose a prized possession, or our reputation is called into question. More often than not, when anger knocks at the doors of our hearts we easily allow it to take over. But what if getting to the heart of our anger also reveals the way to transform it? Christopher Ash and Steve Midgley address this question by bringing to bear what the whole Bible has to say about sinful anger—revealing that anger is the sinful response when something we value more than God is taken away or threatened. They reflect on biblical portraits of human anger, God’s righteous anger, and how only the gospel of Jesus Christ brings true freedom—transforming a heart of anger into a heart filled with the love of God.
This book shows clinicians how to use Interpersonal Reconstructive Therapy (IRT) to change maladaptive patterns regarding safety and threat in treatment-resistant patients. According to IRT theory, patients who suffer from maladaptive anger, anxiety, or depression are reenacting dysfunctional lessons in affect management modeled by parents and other early attachment figures. For example, a depressed woman who is afraid to assert herself can be described as reliving a childhood during which speaking up was dangerous, leading to rejection, even abandonment. IRT gives sufferers the tools to revise or replace internalized versions of attachment figures (the amp ldquo family in the head amp rdquo ) to create a more secure internal base. IRT is integrative, drawing on any intervention relevant to the case formulation, and it is compatible with medications as needed for stress management. Evidence of effectiveness is provided for a treatment-resistant population. In this warm and engaging book, author Lorna Smith Benjamin shows how patients can more effectively cope with threat and find safety in their everyday lives.
This book examines shame and anger, their relationship with one another, and how mental health providers can work with each of them to produce therapeutic change. Although very different emotions, shame and anger are highly related in therapy. Because shame and anger have both adaptive and maladaptive forms, intervention differs depending on what type of shame or anger is being experienced and in what sequence they occur. Therapists need to consider the type of shame or anger they are dealing with and how the two emotions interact before they can make process diagnoses of what is occurring at different moments in a session. This book emphasizes the benefits of accessing and experiencing shame and anger viscerally to promote emotion change in therapy. It teaches therapists how to help clients access their shame or anger in a safe therapeutic setting to make this emotion amenable to transformation, and create new narratives based on the transformed feelings.
Humanity is at an infantile stage in its relationship with anger. For millennia we have demonstrated two anger options - implosion and explosion - neither of which are sustainable. "The Power Of Anger" lays out - in a succinct, step-by-step format - how anger's purpose is always related to your well-being - and the restoration and/or increase of your personal power. A 'must read' for anyone who lives in dis-empowerment - either cowering in the face of anger or exploding without control. A magnificent read for fast-tracking yourself into clarity, confidence and discovering your true strength.
If people perceive you to have an anger management problem, it's likely you spend most of your time dealing with the consequences of this, rather than the causes. This practical book, full of diagnostic questionnaires and immediately applicable advice, will help you to understand the causes of your angry reactions, and instead channel your emotions into directions which will enable you to have more successful relationships in your business and personal life.
