Hear the scientific proof of a connection to something larger than ourselves from the world’s leading expert on the psychology of spirituality, Dr. Lisa Miller. Whether you're a skeptic or have a deeply held belief in a higher power, you'll walk away with a lot to think about.
Dr. Lisa Miller, Columbia University professor and bestselling author of The Awakened Brain, shares that we’re all facing a spiritual crisis linked to our current mental health epidemic. She explains 20+ years of neuroscience research proving that all humans are born with innate brain circuitry for spiritual connection. Ignoring this part of ourselves can lead to feelings of being lost, depression, addiction, loneliness, and poor decision-making. But when we activate our "awakened brain," everything changes.
🎧 This episode is a must if you’ve ever:
<ul>
 <li>Felt emotionally disconnected despite doing “everything right”</li>
 <li>Wondered why traditional mental health tools sometimes aren’t enough</li>
 <li>Experienced grief, signs, or synchronicities you couldn’t explain</li>
 <li>Wanted a deeper, science-backed connection to your intuition or higher power</li>
</ul>
We explore how to rebuild your spiritual awareness without dogma or religion—using simple, brain-based tools anyone can try.
✨ Homework: Try Dr. Miller’s “council of guidance” practice from this episode. Close your eyes, set a question on your heart, and invite in your higher self, ancestors, or spiritual figures. Notice what comes through—and journal about it.
