Living from the Soul: The Neuroscience of Spiritual Awakening

“A comprehensive guide to healing that incorporates psychological, physical, and spiritual practices for overall wellness.”—Kirkus Reviews

• Explains how to connect with your Soul for inner guidance, peace, and an opportunity to reach your highest potential

• Offers integrative psychological, spiritual, and mind-body practices to help you reduce stress and your reactive behaviors, and reconnect with your higher consciousness

• Reveals your Soul’s purpose through proven methodology and shows how to cultivate gratitude, compassion, and happiness by living an authentic life

Exploring the intersection of spirituality and neuroscience—utilizing both to optimize spiritual and mental health—psychiatrist and neuroscientist Helen Lavretsky shows that the evolution of the Soul is the purpose of life. Drawing on the latest research and examples from her clinical practice, Lavretsky helps you know and embody your Soul—a union that provides inner guidance, peace, balance, happiness, and an opportunity to reach your highest potential.

Lavretsky aims to put the psyche (soul) back into psychology using a proven methodology to enable you to control reactive behavior and reconnect with higher consciousness. She gives guidance on how to navigate challenges and spiritual emergencies, such as the Dark Night of the Soul, with enhanced intuitive abilities and clarity.

With clinical examples and more than 20 practical exercises, Lavretsky shows how you can incorporate the neuroscience of spiritual awakening to transform negative thoughts and feelings into a sense of excitement and curiosity. This will increase your ability to reduce stress, regulate negative emotions, improve your brain health, and cultivate gratitude, compassion, and a consistent sense of serenity and well-being by living a truly authentic life.
