About this episode

In today’s episode, you’re going to learn about the powerful connection between neuroscience and religious experiences.

Renowned medical doctor and neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Newberg, MD is here on the podcast today, and you’re going to be amazed at what he shares.

Dr. Newberg is a pioneering researcher of “neurotheology,” which is a field of research that studies the relationship between neuroscience and spirituality. 

He has spent decades scanning the brains of people during prayer, meditation, and spiritual experiences, and he’s here to share the findings of his huge body of research – and how you can apply it in your life.

Whether you consider yourself religious, spiritual, or an atheist, this episode is for you. You’ll discover practical tools to create daily rituals that cultivate a sense of unity, 

connectedness, and calm in your daily life — starting right now.
