Zoom: Working with Anger WorkshopZoom: Working with Anger Workshop Working with Anger Workshop Anger plagues all of us on a personal, national, and international level. Yet we see people such as His Holiness the Dalai Lama, who have faced circumstances far worse than many of us have faced—including exile, persecution, and the loss of many loved ones—but who do not burn with rage or seek revenge. How do they do it? Working with Anger by Buddhist nun Venerable Thubten Chodron presents a variety of Buddhist methods for subduing and preventing anger not by changing what is happening, but by framing it differently. No matter what our religion, learning to work with our anger is effective for everyone seeking personal happiness as well as world peace. Join the author herself for this series of five online talks that will be filled with practical tips, personal examples, lots of humor, and the opportunity to engage in question and answer sessions.
