Hidden Brain · Waking Up Your Spiritual Brain: Part 2 · 6 Jul 2026 podcast

is that of the ascension to elderhood, developmental depression, once again, that can open into an expanded spiritual awareness.

Emerging adulthood, midlife, and the ascension to elderhood are three hardwired bridges of spiritual growth, which usually kick off with existential struggle, developmental depression.

This means that I'm not against medication, but medication alone is insufficient to do the profound foundational work of spiritual growth that is a setup for a much more inspired life of dialogue.

You know, Shankar, very often people are relieved when you ask them about their spiritual life.

We asked hundreds of high school students to tell us about a spiritual experience.

And nearly half of our high school students said, wow, I always thought.

Something was going on, but no one ever talked about it.

In a clinical setting, people are often tremendously hopeful and relieved and curious that you would open the door, give name, and authorize.

Yes, we talk about that here.

Here in treatment, here at this hospital, at this clinic, in my practice, we talk about spirituality here.

Now, of course, as clinicians, our goal is to keep a client-centered, patient-centered journey of spiritual exploration.

So it doesn't matter what faith tradition I may be or not be.

It is a client-patient-centered process that can be opened through three simple questions.

Is spirituality or religion important to you?

Do you sense it has something to do with what's going on right now?

And would you like to explore or have support around your spiritual exploration, your spiritual life?

Those are questions.

And the patient in a loving alliance with good boundaries is free to say, no, you know, that's not important to me or I don't want to talk about that or maybe they'll come back and want to talk about it another time.

But the vast majority of the time, well over 70% of the time, patients say yes, yes and yes to all three.

Oh, yes.
