Ruth King's Rage
Last night's teleseminar with guest Ruth King and host Belvie Rooks was very engaging. Ruth was gracious enough to stay on the call with members long after the usual 20 minutes of Q&A for an additional 40 minutes!
Members were asking her about her book "Healing Rage" and she shared the "Disguises of Rage" that she addresses in her book:
•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.
The teleseminar is available to listen to if you missed the call.
