The Healing Effects of Spiritual Practices

Broadcast on March 20, 2023
With Rupert Sheldrake, PhD
Hosted by Beth McDougall, MD

According to Rupert Sheldrake, PhD, the effects of spiritual practices are now being investigated scientifically as never before. Many studies have shown that people with regular spiritual practices tend to live healthier and longer lives. Scientific research sheds new light on meditation, gratitude, chanting, prayer, rituals, rites of passage, and other practices.

In this session, you’ll discover:

  • Spiritual practices can help promote health and healing
  • Spiritual practices have scientifically measurable effects
  • Rituals, mantras, and festivals may all be influenced by morphic resonance, establishing connections across time
The views expressed are specific to the author/speaker and may vary from the perspectives of The Shift Network's participants, staff, or other speakers.
