Spiritual Intelligence: The Neuroscience Behind Meditation, EFT and How These Practices Can Save Your Life with Dawson Church

What if the key to healing, clarity, and resilience isn’t somewhere out there — but actually wired within you? In this illuminating episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with award-winning author, researcher, and spiritual scientist Dawson Church, PhD, to explore the powerful intersection of ancient wisdom and cutting-edge neuroscience. His latest book, Spiritual Intelligence, dives deep into how we can measure and grow our connection to higher consciousness—and how doing so can enhance every aspect of our lives. We talk about the measurable effects of body-based meditation and healing practices like ecoMeditation and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and how they activate the brain’s “Enlightenment Network” — literally growing the parts of the brain responsible for memory, learning, and emotional regulation. Dawson also shares fascinating research, including MRI scans showing reversed cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s patients and data revealing how meditation doesn’t just make you feel better—it can make you more productive, more compassionate, and even biologically younger. Whether you're curious about the neuroscience of mystical experience or you're seeking grounded tools to navigate chaos and cultivate joy, this episode will leave you with a deeper sense of what's possible when we align with the loving consciousness that simply IS.
