Today we continue the conversation about the dark side of human nature and how we are all susceptible to the pressures of power, authority, division, and hatred. What are the psychological and spiritual traps that we fall into that lead us to hate another - and could even lead us to hurt another? Lastly, what are some healthier ways of thinking that could increase compassion for self and others?

In this episode, we will explore the psychological, practical, and spiritual repercussions of hatred and evil. We will look at how ordinary people can become power-hungry tyrants in a matter of days, how current society is trying to keep us isolated and divided, and what mindsets are the antidotes to hate.

Corrine goes into the four main types of episodes this podcast has/will have. These include Community Connections, Spiritual Things, Personal Reflections, and Seeking to Understand. She also requests you, the listener, to communicate your reactions to the episodes and keep her accountable as a Christian, a therapist, and a human being!

Corrine has a very special guest open up today's episode, leading to the topic about rest. We'll explore if we allow ourselves to rest, under what conditions we allow ourselves to rest, and how we can try to implement more regular rest that we do not have to feel guilty about. Remember - our bodies and brains need to rest in order to heal and recharge!
