When we can break out of that almost cage of thinking, then we may enter into a new era of dialogue and usher in much more scientific progress.
Have you ever pondered how your attitudes shape your actions? In this episode of 'Kind Mind', Michael Todd Fink takes listeners on an insightful journey into the world of attitudes and cognitive dissonance. He draws fascinating parallels between musical scores and psychological attitudes, explaining how both are mental constructs that guide our behavior. When parts of a musical piece clash, it's called dissonance; similarly, when our attitudes are out of sync, we experience cognitive dissonance—a key trigger for change.
Fink explores how this dissonance can lead to personal growth and self-discovery. But that's not all. He also delves into the impact of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and doomsday cults on our attitudes and identity. How can meditation help us better understand our awareness? What can we learn from the psychological journeys of American fighter pilots? Michael unpacks these complex topics with his signature blend of empathy and expertise.
If you're curious about how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors intertwine, this episode is a must-listen.
