Marianne Williamson on Dealing With Anger [Abridged, Audiobook] [Audio Cassette]

Marianne Williamson (Author, Reader)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 11, 1992

Marianne Williamson continues her series of interpretive lectures on A COURCE IN MIRACLESwith these live recordings of Dealing with Angerand Total Defenselessness.

According to A COVRSE IN MIRACLES only love exists: nothing real can be threatened and nothing unreal exists. Marianne Williamson shows us how the need to get in touch with our anger and release it--rather than suppress it--is essential to our spiritual well-being and our relationships. In expressing anger, without attacking, we need to feel safe enough to share our truth, and willing to hear the truth from others. Total defenselessness, Marianne explains, is the belief that we cannot be harmed. Since only love exists, the perceived dangers and worries of the outside world exist only outside of us, and cannot hurt our inner, essential selves. Ultimately, we create what we defend against.

This review is from: Marianne Williamson on Dealing With Anger (Audio Cassette)

Marianne is a gifted speaker, in every sense of the word. I've probably listened to this tape 6 times in the last two weeks. She makes such a clear statement about what anger is, where it comes from, how to relate to it, and how and why to get from anger to forgivness.

If you want to understand anger, and behave as a master in relation to anger, I can't recommend this tape highly enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars She struck a chord!, August 29, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Marianne Williamson on Dealing With Anger (Audio Cassette)

I have listened to many of Marianne's audiocassettes and read her books on many subjects, but I have referred to this particular subject more frequently than any other. Marianne has become one of my best friends and advisors, and when it comes to anger, it's hard enough to admit, let alone deal with. I can honestly say that through Marianne's work, my life has been forever changed and I am eternally grateful. I highly recommend anything by Marianne, but especially if you have difficulty in your life with anger, this is a must! I sincerely hope you find as much relief from her message as I have in the last several years. Best wishes!!!!

This review is from: Marianne Williamson on Dealing With Anger (Audio Cassette)

Marianne Williamson with her audio-cassette book titled "Marianne Williamson on dealing with Anger : Dealing with Anger and Total Defenselessness" is a "down to earth" method of dealing with everday anger situations and how to employ positive thoughts and methods of controlling anger. She mentions anger is allright as long as the anger is CONTROLLED. I believe that this is the key to successfull anger management. Marianne shares personal experiences of past situations that are helpfull with different situations. Marianne also shares a positive messege on controling and managing anger. One such positive messege is that there isn't a need to add "fuel to the fire" where she explains how you can discredit yourself when converying a messge/conflict with the other person. I don't recall if Marianne shares this next thought: "control your anger, do not let anger control you".
I am pretty sure that I received this messege from Marianne's book. This statemnt refers to control and more to the point anger control. I have found this messege to be helpful in the work enviroment and personal life as well. I find that this messege on control is especially effective at the work enviroment. I strongly recommend this audio-cassette book to anyone dealing with anger and anger management!
