About this listen

For the modern world, it seems as if sexuality and spirituality have always been at odds. But what if the two are actually deeply connected? And what if science could prove this connection?

From neuroscientist Andrew Newberg, Sex, God, and the Brain argues that our religious and spiritual experiences derive directly from our sexual being. While others have speculated on a connection between religion and sex, Newberg is the first to demonstrate—with groundbreaking brain scan research gained through Orgasmic Meditation studies—that the underlying biological mechanism of religious, spiritual, and sexual experiences are identical.

With research technical enough for academics, but explained simply enough for the everyday reader, Sex, God, and the Brain, will reframe our understanding of the link between spirituality and sexuality.

Science meets spirituality

I’ve had the great pleasure of studying with Dr. Newberg and getting certified as a Neuro coach through Mark Waldman‘s program

I am always learning from Dr. Newberg . This book is no exception. Thank you for breaching such a sensitive subject and presenting it in a way that is captivating fascinating and very interesting. As always evidenced based.

Thank you I look forward to your next book.
