All the Rage

Why has everybody gotten so mean? Hate has become normalized and rage celebrated. You've gotten very good at not setting anyone off. You're the one reading the room before you speak, measuring your tone, bracing for the sigh or the slammed door. And maybe you've noticed that being around all that anger has left you with a shorter fuse of your own. In All the Rage, Dr. Bev gives you hope and the tools to handle anger-theirs and yours-and turn frustration into constructive problem-solving along with building emotional immunity to toxic behavior. Through relatable stories, revealing quizzes, and practical advice, she shows you how to take control of anger instead of letting it take control of you.

Based on more than four decades of work helping people manage unhealthy anger, Dr. Bev's experience spans clinical offices, prison cells, seminar venues, training rooms, faith-based meetings, executive offices, and board rooms in nine countries. By showing readers how to channel their frustrations with others into constructive solutions, she shows us how to make ourselves less susceptible to anger, whether the animosity originates from ourselves or others.

Written in an engaging and conversational style, and using helpful quizzes and relatable stories, Dr. Bev shows us how to take control of anger, instead of letting it take control of us. Organized into three parts,All the Rage helps you:

• Decode anger by learning to identify what makes someone angry, so you can make the right choices by nipping that rage early or channeling it before it becomes poisonous.
• Identify the different patterns of anger including Blow-Up (Aggressive), Bottle-Up (Suppressive), Bubble-Up (Passive Aggressive), or the healthier Open-Up (Assertive-Expressive). Through a self-assessment quiz, you will identify your own patterns and discover insights about yourself, as well as insights into people who may be challenging you.
• Build emotional immunity by developing five immunity boosters: Practical Optimism, Self-Worth, Post-Traumatic Growth, Forgiveness, and Purpose. Through the Emotional Immunity Inventory, you will discover your own strengths and opportunities for improvement, and gain valuable self-awareness and practical action steps that help you move out of the anger danger zone.
