In this discussion, host Belvie Rooks and her guest Ruth King discuss Ruth's book "Healing Rage, Making Inner Peace Possible." Ruth addresses the different disguises of rage and how we all exhibit some of them:
•Dominance—You control to avoid being controlled. You distance from others and abuse power to manage your terror of tenderness.
•Defiance—You use anger to divert your need to be loved, often by your perceived enemy.
•Distraction—You avoid intolerable feelings of emptiness by filling yourself and your time with self-defeating diversions.
•Devotion—You take perfect care of others, sacrificing your own well being to avoid knowing and receiving what you deeply need.
•Dependence—You stay financially insecure and emotionally young. You deny your personal power out of your fear of losing love.
•Depression—You become heavy, numb, lifeless or indifferent to shut down overwhelming feelings of grief and rage.
