About this listen

Thich Nhat Hanh is a holy man, for he is humble and devout. He is a scholar of immense intellectual capacity. His ideas for peace, if applied, would build a monument to ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity' Martin Luther King, Jr, in Nobel Peace Prize nomination

It was under the bodhi tree in India 2500 years ago that Buddha achieved the insight that three states of mind were the source of all our unhappiness: ignorance, obsessive desire and anger. All are equally difficult to control but, in one instant of anger, lives can be ruined, and our spiritual development can be destroyed.

Twenty-five centuries after the Buddha's insight, medical science tells us that the Buddha was right: anger can also ruin our health. It is one of the most powerful emotions and one of the most difficult to change.

Thich Nhat Hanh offers a fresh perspective on taking care of our anger as we would take care of a baby crying - picking it up, talking quietly to it, probing for what is making the baby cry.

Laced with stories and techniques, Anger offers a wise and loving look at transforming this difficult emotion into peace and for bringing harmony and healing to all the areas and relationships in our lives that have been affected by anger.

I instantly connected with the voice & ever since I downloaded it, I keep going back to listening chunks of it at a time. There's so much wisdom in the book, I feel like I need to space the chapters out to process and act on what I've learnt. Beautifully read, it is a day to day guidance on how to manage our negative emotions, not blame others for how we feel & focus on what we have, rather than seeking something that we don't. love & resonate with every word of it 🙏

I've listened to it a number of times 💙

I have had the audiobook for a while, in my library, and recently it felt like it might be time to listen to it. Did I get it all, not this first listen. Will I listen again, definitely. Do I feel that after only one listen it has made a difference to me and my anger - yes. This is big, lifestyle-changing thinking and is absolutely worth the listen if you have anger in your life (which we all do, and should be happy about - and this book gives the foundations of how to approach and care for your anger). Everyone should listen to it, and even if we apply only a small amount of it to our life’s, the entire world would be a better place.

This is a very good place to start.

I have read and listened to lots of self help books but this one finds a really lovely and calm way to assist and the message is a powerful one. If everyone listened to this audio book and practiced the teachings there is absolutely no doubt the world would be a calmer place!

A lovely listen
