Your Brain Can Build a Defense Against Depression (Here's How) | Dr. Lisa Miller
Columbia psychologist Dr. Lisa Miller on what brain science shows a spiritual life does for depression, addiction and the feeling of being alone.Dr. Miller has worked at the intersection of spirituality and psychotherapy for 30 years. Her research finds a strong spiritual life is 80% protective against addiction and 90% protective against depression for people at high risk, and her MRI study scanned people of many faiths as they heard their own story of feeling a higher presence. She explains what came online in their brains, and why she sees depression as a door rather than a dead end.
Discover:
• Why spirituality is a perception built into the brain, not just a belief
• What the brain scans showed in people of every faith
• How depression can become the start of a spiritual awakening
• Where to start when you feel lost and stuck
• Why some spiritual people still end up depressed and broke
• The question to ask when something painful happens to you
• Why she says therapy without a spiritual core makes no sense
• Whether you need to believe in God to be spiritual
