Can critical thinking save your relationships? Join Hilary and Les as they unravel the surprising ways critical thinking shapes our interactions and mental health. In this eye-opening episode of "Coffee with Hilary and Les," Hilary recounts her initial skepticism about critical thinking, often mistaking it for judgmental behavior, while Les shares insights from his teaching days at Trent University, where the Socratic method illuminated the path to deeper understanding and meaningful dialogue.
We delve into the powerful influence of authority figures on our subconscious beliefs, discussing how parents, teachers, and even doctors shape our worldviews. By reassessing these ingrained notions, we can better navigate the complexities of our social fabric, especially in times of heightened societal division. Hilary and Les emphasize that critical thinking is not a tool for asserting superiority but a personal shield against misinformation and manipulation.
Finally, we explore the turbulent waters of opinions and their emotional undercurrents. By distinguishing facts from opinions and managing our own judgments, we can foster more respectful and calm interactions. This episode advocates for a mindful approach to conversations, encouraging listeners to treat opinions as evolving perspectives rather than immutable truths. Tune in to discover how critical thinking can enhance your intellectual and emotional resilience, paving the way for personal growth and deeper understanding.
We hope this helps a little as you go through your day.
