Anger Solutions: Strength Sticks - A Great Resource for Groups

Hi Everyone,
I had the wonderful opportunity of spending an intense 12 hours of training with the Chatham-Kent Community Health Center and some of the staffs from Walpole Island Women's Shelter last November, and I asked Mary Ann to share this wonderful tool with the rest of our AS facilitators and trainers. I think this idea is brilliant, and she purchases these bamboo skewers from the dollar store. Easy, affordable, and incredibly innovative! Mary Ann uses these for her women's groups, but I'm sure we could adapt these to different settings with just a little creativity. Enjoy, and please forgive the whistling sound in the background - it is something in my camera that I can't get rid of. :)  Lastly, all the best to Mary Ann as she enjoys her mat leave with the newest addition of her family.

New Anger Solutions tutorials - a prelude to AS Webinars

Hi there,
Last fall I mentioned that we would soon be producing Anger Solutions webinars so that people could engage in distance learning. We still have every intention of doing this, and the resource is in development. As a prelude to this more complete training tool, we are now developing Anger Solutions tutorials featuring hand-drawn images and notes (very cool). I'm sure you have seen some of these videos on YouTube, and we are excited to be able to offer tutorials using this really neat technology. The videos will be available here for you to use either as teaching tools with your clients, or just to brush up on how to relay this information quickly and concisely to your clients/audiences. The first of these videos explains the myths and realities of anger. Enjoy, and please share!

Anger Solutions EBOOK now available on Smashwords

Happy New Year!

I am very excited to announce that my most popular book, Anger Solutions: Proven Strategies for Effectively Resolving Anger and Taking Control of Your Emotions, is now available in EBook format. Thanks to the amazing folks at Smashwords Publishing (www.smashwords.com), you can now purchase and download the e-version of this book for your Kindle, Kobo, PDF reader, or other e-book reader format that you desire.

The E-version of the book is much more affordable than the print version for a couple of reasons (only $5.99 USD)- first, it is an e-version and much less costly to produce -  no printing, shipping, or packaging costs are required on my end, and I can pass that savings on to you! Second, some of the content that was contained in the appendix of the print version is now out of date, or no longer needed in a digital version. Contact information for crisis lines across Canada, along with information about eating disorder clinics, grief counseling, partner assault response programs, etc., are readily available via the Internet. Readers are still encouraged to avail themselves of these resources; however, the listings from the print version were deleted for the e-version. Lastly, we have updated the bibliography and included complete references for the sources that informed the book. In all, the page count has been reduced to about 90 pages; however, the full content from all the chapters is there for your reading enjoyment.

Please tell your friends, and visit www.smashwords.com today to get your copy of Anger Solutions for your favourite e-reader.

If you still prefer PRINT, have no fear! You can still order a print version of Anger Solutions from our online store: http://store.angersolution.com.
