[Previously re-recorded September 24, 2018] Strength & Challenges, Cognitive Distortions, and Witch Hunts and Common-Humanity.
Taking on three bad ideas:
- Challenge makes us weaker.
- Always trust your feelings.
- Life is a battle between good people and evil people.
Answers, insights, and commentary on:
- Fragility versus Strength and Growth
- Purpose in Suffering
- Comparing Diana & Clark upbringing
- Mindfulness, Automatic Thoughts, Reframing
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
- Cognitive Distortions – illustrated by DC films
- Tribalism & Witch Hunts – the persecution of Superman
- Common Humanity – DC Bridge Building
- Superman Suicide Prevention
Three antidotes:
- Prepare the child for the road, not the road for the child.
- Your worst enemy cannot harm you as much as your own thoughts, unguarded. But once mastered, no one can help you as much, not even your father or your mother.
- The line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being.
