Book Review
B"H It has been quite a while since I posted anything, so I will post a book review. I recently finished reading The Trail to Tranquility, by Breslev Chassid Rabbi Lazer Brody. The book deals with anger, and does an excellent job of helping one to identify what level of anger one has, whether one is angry at HaShem, or at one's neighbor, or with one's self, and then goes into the steps to deal with that anger. This isn't a "don't worry, be happy" kind of book, the ideas and methods are concrete, and have already proved a benefit to myself, since, yes, I have issues with anger with myself. The book discusses developing spiritual awareness, and provides exercises for one to go through to help deal with anger, and move to a place of tranquility. This book is easy to read, and uses very direct, easy to grasp language to bring home the ideas on concepts contained within. I give this book two thumbs up, and highly recommend it, even if you don't think you have anger issues.
