What if Jesus’ core teachings, neuroscience, and quantum physics are pointing to the same truth? Today, I sat down with David Youngren -  a spiritual philosopher, author, and meditation teacher whose work bridges the worlds of science and mysticism—to explore how contemplative practice, inner stillness, and neuroplasticity converge with a more inclusive, heart-centered reading of ancient wisdom.

David has spoken to over a million people worldwide and is the author of Life Ascending: Unlocking Mental Wellbeing Through Timeless Wisdom and New Science—a book that reveals how timeless spiritual teachings and cutting-edge research in neuroscience and quantum physics illuminate the same path to freedom and inner peace.

You’ll hear:

• Religion vs. spirituality: why presence (not dogma) actually transforms
• Meditation, the brain, and real-world mental well-being
• The “I Am” as consciousness beyond space, time, and matter
• Ego as a useful servant—not the driver
• Reframing “truth” as the inner light arising in the present moment

If you’ve wrestled with the word “God,” are untangling religious conditioning, or crave a bridge between faith, science, and lived spirituality, this conversation will feel like a breath of relief—and a practical path back to presence.
