Author Delivers Real Solutions for Anger

Jan. 19, 2011 - PRLog -- What makes an angry person tick? Can anger contribute to heart disease? Is it enough to manage one's anger, or are there real solutions? Do you have to forgive the people that hurt you in order to make the anger go away?  Julie Christiansen answers all these questions and more in her book, Anger Solutions! Proven Strategies for Effectively Resolving Anger,(220 pages, tpb, $24.95).

Deborah Wilson, an international motivational speaker and a colleague of Julie's, says that "Julie is insightful and masterful in untying the often complex knots of human emotion.  Her wisdom and humour is a gift to help us encounter far less speed bumps or conversation collisions and experience more clear communication pathways."  Anger Solutions! Proven Strategies… dispels many of the myths surrounding the volatile emotion we know as anger, and lays to rest several common misconceptions about what is safe, appropriate and effective in terms of resolving it.

Anger Solutions! Proven Strategies… is a culmination of almost 8 years of work.  Julie Christiansen's experiences early in her career as a mental health counselor, demonstrated a need for developing a program that would address the underlying issues that often caused her clients to act out aggressively.  She found that most of her clients were using "angry" behaviours like yelling, swearing, breaking things, or physically attacking others because they were compensating for other difficulties.

"Using aggression makes people feel powerful, or in control", says Julie.  "They may feel that acting out their anger is the only way to get attention, or to achieve the results they want."  Using a ten-step model that took over 4 years to develop, Julie walks the reader through the process of gaining more self-awareness, defining what their anger is and why they respond the way they do.  She then provides practical tips and methods for resolving anger in a way that is safe, and productive.  The book also includes a compilation of resources across the world that can prove useful to people who are experiencing crisis and need more help than the book can provide.

An internationally recognized speaker, Julie has been recognized by the Niagara Community as a Woman of Distinction in the area of education and training, and one of the "Top 40 under 40" business people in Niagara.  Julie continues to provide individual coaching while training other community workers to use the Anger Solutions™ Program with their own clientele. Julie is a sought-after guest expert for radio and television programs in both Canada and the United States, sharing her profound knowledge of issues pertaining to anger and stress.
