"Dr. Deepak Chopra once told me that he thought the single most common and direct cause of illness was anger. If this is true, Dr. Brenda Shoshanna has got to be one of the great healers of all time. In her book the Anger Diet, not only does she present the most complete and compelling description of the many forms of anger, but she also tells you how to treat each of them. If you suffer from any form of anger, and who among us does not, then you must read The Anger Diet. It's a life changing experience."

FAVORITE SAYINGS AND TEACHINGS OF DR. BRENDA SHOSHANNA:
“Everyday is a good day”
Do Not Look At The Faults of Others Look At Your Own Deeds, Done and Undone
Happiness comes from being loving, not being loved.
We can change the whole course of life by changing our attitude towards it.
Responsibility means we have the ability to respond, not just react.
Love is wanting for the other what they want for themselves, even if you are not the one able to give it to them.
We are not hurt by what people do or say, but by our own reactions to it.
The best way to get rid of an enemy is to turn them into a friend.
Relationships are a way of looking into the mirror.
That which we cannot tolerate in others is something we have not accepted in ourselves.
What we see in others, we bring out in them
Our belief in fear gives it power over us. When we see fear for what it is, it loses power and we are free.
The best defense against being hurt is to feel good about ourselves.
Place after place is the right place.
Being healthy and loving is more important than being right
