The Anger Toolbox: A Blueprint for Responsible Anger, Boundaries & Safety

From the time children are toddlers, they are told that anger is bad and must be managed. Anger has the capacity to permeate every aspect of our personal and professional lives, potentially leading to physical and mental illness, broken relationships, or criminal activity. Based on a three-day workshop hosted by Dr. Joann Peterson and held at the Haven Institute on Gabriola Island in British Columbia, The Anger Toolbox examines the physiological roots of anger, and includes discussions and exercises designed to improve interpersonal communication, self-awareness, and self-expression. Peterson believes that by understanding what anger is, where it comes from, and how to separate anger from violence, we can learn to channel this dangerous emotion into more healthy expressions.
