4.0 out of 5 stars Let go of your irrational beliefs, December 13, 2004

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Anger: How To Live With And Without It (Mass Market Paperback)
This is one of the best strategies I've found for dealing with anger. Ellis points out that our response to a given event is conditioned by our irrational beliefs (e.g., "She should not...!" "I can't stand it that....!" "How awful that...!"). You can monitor your level of anger (mildly disappointed? enraged? something in between?), seek out your irrational belief, and counter it with a rational statement. This brings your implicit beliefs to the surface and makes them available for examination. It also levels out your emotional response to one that's more appropriate to the actual situation.
