Spiritual Intelligence

Spiritual Intelligence is a groundbreaking exploration of how we are all hardwired for higher consciousness. Based on over 400 scientific studies, this transformative book reveals the brain's capacity to access states of bliss, compassion, and connection through what neuroscientists call the "Enlightenment Network." Whether through meditation, prayer, or peak performance "flow" states, author Dawson Church demonstrates how anyone can activate these circuits to create rapid and life-changing shifts in wellbeing and health. In Spiritual Intelligence, Church draws on decades of cutting-edge research, from Tibetan monks to peak-performing athletes, to show how activating these states rapidly rewires our neural networks for lasting joy, peace, and resilience. With vivid real-life examples such as Nelson Mandela, Joan of Arc, Mahatma Gandhi and Pope John Paul II, Church illustrates how spiritual intelligence (SQ) is not a vague ideal but an attainable skillset that shapes our brains for extraordinary happiness. This book is a must-read for seekers, parents, teachers, scientists, entrepreneurs, athletes and leaders--anyone looking to elevate their consciousness and reduce stress. It shows how SQ combines clear inner purpose with passionate engagement with life. Packed with actionable insights and powerful practices, Spiritual Intelligence shows you how to access the power of your brain to create enduring happiness while contributing to the greater good.
