Advances in neuroscience and cognitive-behavioral therapy have shown a remarkable congruence between evidence-based psychology and a Catholic understanding of the human person and human existence. Three key psychological skills, when applied to the activity of work — reframing, mindfulness, and embracing challenges — have demonstrated the capacity to transform the experience, effectiveness, and meaning of human work in its many forms. While applying these skills is fully justified on psychological criteria alone, their use reflects a deeply Christian vision of life and ethics and supports the practice of faith in the world of work.
