Customer Reviews

Healing Rage is Real

If you have had trauma, this is the book for you. If you think you have led a charmed life and never suffered an insult or traumatic experience of any type...THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU. Ruth King skillfully and masterfully takes you on an inner journey to learn to deal with the rage that we all suppress and which can cripple and warp us. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has ever wondered, "Why did I do this? Why can't I change what I'm doing? I know better but I can't seem to stop myself". Go. Get the book. Learn to heal.

A Firm Believer

I have read Ruth's book and just received today, 10 more copies in the mail which I intend to give as Christmas gifts. There is no greater gift than personal healing, and Ruth is a gifted healer. Her book, her coaching, her workshops, her CD, I am a firm believer in all, and have experienced them all first hand. I recommend this book, without reservation, to ALL people. Rage does not discriminate, and neither does Ruth. I have tried, unsuccessfully, many times to connect to a counselor or therapist. Ruth is the first person I've found that is able to help me, profoundly, in a 1-hour coaching session. Call her a coach or don't, it doesn't matter, she is the real deal, and I'm a better person for having come across Ruth and her work.

Essential Healing Advice

I've read this book, worked with all the processes and have attended a Healing Rage Workshop. I write in support of this book from direct experience. I found Healing Rage to be a groundbreaking and inspired tool that enabled me to deal with powerful emotions surrounding abandonment, sexual abuse and self-loathing. My life work is personal healing, I have written several memoirs as part of that path and have been in many forms of counseling for more than ten years. Ms. King is a powerful (and much needed) healer addressing rage head-on and giving women ways to express, release, honor and work with that rage. I endorse this book without reservation.

For any general-interest collection strong in self-help and psychology.

precise, insightful, practical and understanding

I have sought advice either through my therapists or self-help books and friends over the years in healing my inner rage. I recently read King's book and find it to be insightful, thoroughly understanding and precise in the aspects and the process of rage. How we become enraged spirits to how we contaiminate our spirits and others around us...to how we can arise above it, love our "rage child", and be one w/ our inner peace. Thus, we may also bring about a legacy of world peace... I'm so glad that I read this book... Hope you will find this book helpful... for those who have experienced childhood abuse/ traumas and in seeking to "heal" our wounds. King offers wise and practical advise in pacifying the inner anger and healing the pain.
