Published in May 2025, Spiritual Intelligence explores how the human brain is neurologically configured for higher states of awareness through what Church calls the Enlightenment Network — four interconnected neural circuits that support experiences of joy, compassion, clarity, and transcendence. Drawing on hundreds of peer-reviewed studies, the book shows how spiritual practices like meditation, prayer, and compassionate action literally reshape the brain and enhance wellbeing.

Rather than treating spirituality and science as separate domains, Dawson Church brings them together in a framework that speaks to seekers of evidence-based transformation.

Readers discover:

• The neural mechanisms behind transcendent experiences
• Practical exercises to strengthen emotional balance and peace
• Tools for integrating spiritual insight into everyday life
• Stories from individuals whose lives were transformed through neuroscience-grounded practices

Church is an award-winning author and researcher whose work examines the intersection of psychology, neuroscience, and spirituality. His previous books include The Genie in Your Genes, Mind to Matter, and Bliss Brain.
