"Depression isn't just feeling sad... What we now know from science is that just as depression has neural correlates, our spiritual awareness has neural correlates. We can track in the brain the circuits undergirding a transcendent relationship." - Dr. Lisa Miller

In this groundbreaking episode, renowned neuroscientist Dr. Lisa Miller challenges conventional wisdom about depression, revealing that two-thirds of the time, it isn't a medical illness but rather a spiritual awakening in disguise. Drawing from cutting-edge research, she explains how our brains are universally wired for spiritual connection, regardless of religious beliefs. Through her work, Dr. Miller demonstrates how the same brain that experiences depression can also access profound spiritual awareness, offering a revolutionary perspective on mental health.

The conversation takes an intimate turn as Dr. Miller shares her personal journey of existential crisis at age 19, sparked by heartbreak and leading to profound questions about life's meaning. Her story illuminates how traditional therapeutic approaches often miss the deeper spiritual hunger underlying depression. Through her own experience and scientific research, she reveals how our darkest moments of questioning and searching can actually be catalysts for spiritual growth and enhanced awareness, offering hope to those struggling with similar challenges.
