Stress reduces empathy and increases aggression

This is an interesting edition of the ABC program Soul Search that has to do with the impact of the pandemic upon our inability to engage and fear of engaging with others. Psychologist Christine Runyan who is interviewed by Meredith Lake on this edition has some interesting things to say on the role stress can play in the way we respond to each other in this climate..

The interview with Christine can be heard in the final 24 or so minute of this podcast.

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.
