“I’ve long been a fan of Dawson Church’s masterful ability to explain complex science in a way that’s accessible to anyone seeking spiritual growth. His masterpiece Spiritual Intelligence bridges the gap between ancient practices and modern brain research. It shows the tangible benefits of meditation and consciousness in all life’s phases but especially in mental health and aging. With clarity, warmth, rigor and passion, Dawson lays out a clear path to optimizing our spiritual development. Beyond the science, Dawson’s light-filled energy and generosity shine through his inspired words. This book is destined to become a classic in the consciousness field. I wholeheartedly recommend it!”

Eric Leskowitz MD

“Dawson Church has done it again - he's written another state-of-the art exploration of the science of consciousness, one that is conducted with clarity, humor, wisdom and excellent graphics. From memory consolidation to meditation retreats, from Alzheimers to alpha waves, Church convincingly builds the case that human beings have the innate ability, and the appropriate neurologic design, to reconnect with their spiritual essence, a connection that is more crucial than ever in these tumultuous times. He outlines the many ways in which brain structure and function are tied to spiritual practices, and to the stressors of everyday life. And he presents numerous case examples and practice exercises by which our brains can be trained to attain the same high states of consciousness described by mystics the world over. Highly recommended.”

“With tremendous enthusiasm and encouragement, Dr. Church offers a practical summary of current brain science, for the healing, growing, and awakening of his readers. Neuroscience is a baby science, and there is still much to learn, but we know much more than nothing, with plenty to help us along our journey with his friendly guidance.”

"I love this book! Spiritual Intelligence is exceptionally well-written, blending a wealth of cutting-edge brain research with captivating stories of personal transformation. As I read it, I could literally feel my happiness levels rise. Dawson Church provides a clear, powerful road map for rewiring our brains and achieving lasting, ‘neurobiological’ happiness. This is a must-read for anyone serious about optimizing their brain health, no matter their age. For those with a family history of dementia or Alzheimer’s, this book is truly a game-changer, offering practical tools for rebuilding and revitalizing the brain."

"This book is a masterpiece! Dawson Church weaves together the timeless, universal truths expressed in works like Autobiography of a Yogi, Be Here Now and I Am That. Yet Church takes us further than these classics by providing a solid scientific foundation for the “Perennial Philosophy” that underlies all the world’s great traditions. He writes in an entertaining and engaging style that is as electrifying as his live transformational seminars, as well as providing us with simple and accessible meditative practices. These point the reader to an experience of the Oneness that is the pinnacle of the spiritual quest. Bravo, Maestro!"

Peta Stapleton PhD, Chair of Graduate Research, Bond University

"Spiritual Intelligence is a remarkable synthesis of meticulous research and original scientific hypotheses. In particular, Chapters 3 and 6 present brilliant new ideas that connect disparate scientific fields, paving the way for future generations of researchers. The fluidity of Dawson's writing makes complex concepts accessible and engages readers at all levels. The outcome is a profoundly hopeful vision of the future of the planet, contrasting sharply with the prevalent negativity in popular media. By demonstrating how SQ can lead to personal and societal flourishing, Dawson inspires a profound understanding of human potential in a rapidly changing world."

"Dawson Church is a true neuro-yogi. He has beautifully integrated the insights and methodologies of the classic yogic teachings on meditation and spiritual development with current neuroscience and modern body-mind techniques like EFT tapping, illuminating a universal path of accelerated spiritual evolution readily available to us all. Dr. Church has demystified spiritual realization with his clear description and practices for enhancing the four neural circuits in the brain that make up the Enlightenment Network. Spiritual Intelligence is a brilliant and most worthy addition to the groundbreaking work he presented in Bliss Brain."

Anodea Judith PhD, Author of Eastern Body, Western Mind and founder of Sacred Centers Academy

"Spiritual Intelligence offers an evolutionary leap forward as radical as the development of writing or the advent of computers.

The astonishing conclusion shows us that this evolves society into its planetary adulthood, an age of greater compassion, emotional maturity, and vibrant health. Dawson Church is a beacon of light in his diligent research, his shining examples, and his ability to take timeless spiritual principles and make them both practical and essential."

Dr. Shamini Jain, CEO, Consciousness and Healing Initiative, author of
Healing Ourselves: Biofield Science and the Future of Health

"For far too long, Western society has considered spirituality as superfluous to health and separate from the physical body. Spiritual Intelligence, one of a string of paradigm-busting works from the extraordinary mind of Dr. Dawson Church, dispels myths about spirituality and its connections with personal and planetary health. He draws upon the latest research in brain circuitry as well as the real-life stories of those inspiring people who led the world, and their lives, with high levels of Spiritual Intelligence This book is a vibrant, science-based antidote to the uncertainty and pessimism of our time."
