Synopsis

In this week's podcast, Dr. Bray dives into the mind of a hero and answers the question, "What lays the groundwork for acts of selfless altruism?" Dr. Bray will discuss several events where, every day, normal individuals act in heroic ways, often without even having time to think. Dr. Bray also talks about how to move from self-absorption to altruism and the signs of an altruistic individual. In a world filled with thoughts of self, the need to think of others and empathize with them in their struggles and failures is to enlarge your humanity. Learn how to take the steps to become more altruistic. Thanks to Steve Taylor, Ph.D., and his article "The Mind of a Hero" in Psychology Today for his thoughts and research into Heros and altruism.  QUOTES BY DR. BRAY “The less time there is to deliberate, the more likely one is to have altruistic behavior.” “Empathy gives rise to altruism.” “When we have a purpose our lives become less complicated and stressful.”
