Topic Overview
Our approach focuses on three "problems" — anxiety, distraction, and self-concepts — and three corresponding "solutions" — ideals, work, and service. Each problem-solution pair relates to a part of the brain: anxiety and ideals relate to the amygdala versus the appraisal cortex; distraction and work relate to task attention and default attention; and self-concepts and service relate to the left and right hemispheres of the brain.
Resolving the problem, and striving for the solution involves applying the three parts of the soul — intellect, memory, and will — in a particular way.
| Part of the soul | Anxiety -> Ideals | Distraction -> Work | Self-concepts -> Service |
|---|---|---|---|
| Intellect | Reframing | Order | Sincerity |
| Memory | Mindfulness | Intensity | Humility |
| Will | Challenge | Constancy | Generosity |
