Dr. Lisa Miller is the pioneer and leading expert in the science of spirituality — how it affects the brain and mental wellbeing of individuals. Dr. Miller’s innovative research has focused on using science (from MRI studies to genetic research, epidemiology, and more) to establish quantifiable effects of spirituality in health, resilience and thriving, and an overall sacred and joyful life. Her work has been widely published in top research journals and she has appeared on CNN, FOX News, MSNBC, and Weekend Today. Her newest book, The Awakened Brain, combines cutting-edge science with qualitative research to reveal the surprising science of spirituality and ways people of any age and background can engage it in their lives.
Lisa Miller, Ph.D. is a professor of psychology and education at Teachers College, Columbia University, and is the Founder and Director of the Spirituality Mind Body Institute, the first Ivy League graduate program and research institute in spirituality and psychology.
