 BECOMING MORE AWARE OF YOUR RESPONSES 

In the video lecture, Kain used some controversial words and phrases to
illustrate the point that we emotionally react or respond to things on an
unconscious level. As he spoke these controversial words, you may have
become aware of an emotional response inside yourself.

Consider the words/phrases that he used and take a few moments to reflect on
how you responded to hearing these words. What did they trigger inside you?
