Training the Brain for Bliss: Activating Your Spiritual Intelligence with Dr. Dawson Church
In this transformative episode of the Jack Canfield Podcast, I sit down with my dear friend Dr. Dawson Church—award-winning author, researcher, and one of the most joyful human beings I know. Together, we explore how to activate your brain’s "enlightenment network"—a powerful set of neurological circuits that are hardwired to help you access joy, peace, resilience, and higher consciousness.
Dawson breaks down the science behind what he calls Spiritual Intelligence, the subject of his latest groundbreaking book. You'll discover the four specific brain circuits that can be trained to cultivate emotion regulation, present-moment awareness, compassion, and a sense of unity with all of life. And the best part? It doesn’t take years in a monastery—you can rewire your brain for bliss in just weeks.
We dive deep into:
How spiritual practices like eco-meditation physically change the brain in just 8 weeks
The four core circuits of the “enlightenment network”—and how to activate them
Why mystics like Rumi and St. Francis were so happy—and how you can be too
How trauma blocks transcendence—and how to heal it using EFT (tapping)
The neuroscience of compassion, gratitude, joy, and higher consciousness
Real-world applications: from education to prisons to daily productivity
Dawson also shares how this research is helping children overcome anxiety, adults recover from trauma, and even Alzheimer’s patients reverse brain shrinkage. It’s inspiring, emotional, and packed with practical tools that can upgrade every part of your life.
