Happy Labor Day Weekend. As you hopefully enjoy a long weekend of rest and relaxation, here is something to keep in mind before you get back into the work/school routine. 1) Dr. Ben Rein is a PhD Neuroscientist who explains the brain in his shortcast Make it Brain (with Dr. Brein).

Dr. Crosby's website 3) Joshua Terhune, a therapist, in this episode from his shortcast, suggests seven questions to ask your parents or grandparents to start a great conversation. I love this idea as a way to connect on a deeper level and learn more about our loved-ones as people.

Being called a "hypocrite" is something we tend to think of as bad, but we are humans and it's okay to not be 100% consistent, right? Nathan Nobis, a Philosophy professor at Morehouse College, asks a question about hypocrisy and expressing life principles in his shortcast..
