35 min - There's More to The Story... Exploring Dialectical Thinking
Often times we get into trouble when we think of people in simplistic terms, also known as "all or nothing thinking". This mode of thinking disrupts our society and leads to suffering and stagnation. We can truly find real change and improved quality of life when we simply add a little more to how we think. Christa and Brett will address this new way of thinking, called Dialectical thinking, and illustrate how truly life-changing it can be.
