Anger and Guilt: Our Foes and Friends (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781432777579)

Both anger and guilt can be experienced as enemies or friends. While anger is abusive when it is expressed aggressively, it is a legitimate and appropriate response to emotional, mental, physical, or sexual abuse. Healthy anger is also a stage in the grieving process. The guilt that we generate by our irrational thinking is life diminishing. In contrast, healthy guilt prompts us to change dysfunctional behaviors and make amends when our actions have hurt others.

Life skills presented in this practical, easy-to-read book include:
-Anger and guilt alert us to areas in our life that need changing.
-Anger and guilt strategies can transform our lives and enhance our relationships.

By growing in awareness, we can discard the belief that anger and guilt are enemies that sabotage our life. Rather, we can appreciate these emotions as supportive friends who provide us with valuable information to help us navigate more effectively through life.
