In a world marked by division, polarization, and rising despair, could spirituality be the missing piece we need to heal — not just individually, but collectively?In this episode of Integrated Wisdom, Tatiana explores why materialism has left us fragmented and hopeless, and how reconnecting with our spiritual essence offers an antidote. Drawing on research from psychology, neuroscience, psychiatry, and even reincarnation studies, she makes the case that spirituality is not just personal comfort — it’s a public health resource and a cultural healing force.You’ll learn:Why over-identification with labels (political, social, cultural) deepens division and despair.How spirituality protects against suicide and mental health struggles (including Dr. Lisa Miller’s brain-imaging research at Columbia).Evidence from recent reviews (2024, 2025) linking spirituality and awe to resilience, compassion, and prosocial behaviour.The surprising lessons from reincarnation research that challenge our attachment to identity.Practical ways to strengthen your own spiritual connection and apply these insights in daily life and community.✨ This episode is both a vision and a roadmap: showing how evidence-based spirituality can become medicine for our fractured world, and how small personal choices ripple outward into collective change.Resources & ReferencesMiller, L. et al., JAMA Psychiatry: Cortical thickness and spirituality.Frontiers in Psychiatry (2024): Spirituality and improved coping, lower suicide risk.SpringerLink (2025): Awe and self-compassion.World Health Organization: Global mental health statistics.University of Virginia: Reincarnation research database.Special Invitation for TherapistsThe doors to The Conscious Therapist reopen on 29 September.  If this conversation resonates and you're curious to explore more, join the waitlist and be one of the first to know when enrolment opens:https://www.integratedwisdom.com.au/theconscioustherapist Deepen your learning:The Science of Spirituality FREE micro-course - https://www.integratedwisdom.com.au/microcourseThe Signal Newsletter: https://www.integratedwisdom.com.au/Contact Tatiana:You can now send me your comments or questions, to [email protected] or you can also find me on Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/wisdomwithtatiana/Be sure to SHARE this episode to anyone you feel may be interested or benefit from this content.And please don't forget to hit SUBSCRIBE to keep up to date with our episodes and give us a RATING below. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Intro and Outro music: Inspiring Morning by PlaysoundDisclaimer: This podcast is intended for educational purposes only.
