Speaking of anger, how is your state of mind? Do you experience anxiety, irritability, pain or the inability to communicate? Anger tells us that because of forces we can’t control, we’re not in control of our lives, that we’ve screwed everything up. It tells us that because we feel powerless, violated, misunderstood, and oppressed, we are helpless. We are no longer in control of ourselves, and we cannot remain independent. Therefore, we become alarmed when we feel angry, and see anger as an unstoppable force. But this is not true.
Dr. Harriet Lerner, a respected psychologist in the United States, has more than 30 years of experience in psychotherapy and family therapy. In her book, Lerner presents many stories about anger drawn from her extensive case studies. She will show you the role of anger in various relationships in “the Anger Dance Floor,” and through these stories you will begin to truly understand the power behind anger.
