Do you ever feel so frustrated with school, friends, parents, and life in general that you lose control of your emotions and lash out? You shouldn’t feel ashamed. Being a teen in today’s world is hard, but it’s even harder when you’re unable to keep your cool in stressful situations. Fortunately, there are things you can do to make positive changes in your life.
Using proven effective mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), Mindfulness for Teen Anger will teach you the difference between healthy and unhealthy forms of anger. Inside, you’ll learn how to make better choices, how to stop overreacting, find emotional balance, and be more aware of your thoughts and feelings in the moment. You’ll also learn skills for building positive relationships with peers, friends, and family.
As a teen, the relationship skills you learn now can help you thrive in the future. With a little help, and by cultivating compassion and understanding for yourself and others, you will be able to transform your fear and anger into confidence and kindness.

Fantastic book…purchased as my son is having issues with anger and these have helped him communicate much better. Have also been using this book as I have to deal with alcohol related brain injuries and the aggressiveness that comes with people being frustrated, this has been fantastic for working with adults with anger issues as it’s so simple, it’s brilliant!

So well laid out, written well and so accessible to teens without being patronising. My 13 year old daughter is working through this with her granny (she’d just reject it instantly if I tried!), And it is really great. The perfect book for teen anger.

I bought this book for my son and had a good look myself before giving it to him to work through. It is really interesting and gives a real insight into the root of the problem and how we respond to our anger. It seems to make sense that this is the best way to tackle anger by mindfully looking at it, understanding it and then finding ways to alter subtly your thinking and responses.
My son is pleased with it and has started working his way through it.
