Manage episode 310449598 series 3056149
Do the mind and body work together? Are goals and hope truly necessary for us all? Can we make choices in ANY situation that are honorable and right?
In this book study, we are looking at several themes from "Man's Search for Meaning," by Dr. Vikor Frankl. You can listen to them in any order!
Episode 109 - Week One - Theme: Humanity
Episode 110 - Week Two - Theme: Goals
Episode 111 - Week Three - Theme: Decisions
Dr. Viktor Fankl was a psychiatrist and also a survivor of Auschwitz and other concentration camps. Through his work, he not only descried the conditions of the camps, but he explored the mental, emotional, and spiritual lives of the prisoners in a way that only a survivor could. He also created his own practice of psychiatry based on what he experienced and observed.
We all make decisions large and small - but we may not realize their power. In this episode, I explore the theme of "Decisions" and the great power and responsibility that Dr. Frankl suggested we all have, no matter the circumstances.
