Geriatric psychiatry

Dr. Helen Lavretsky has spent her career proving that wrong.

A geriatric psychiatrist and researcher, she's put medication under a microscope, literally scanning the brains of caregivers of the grieving of the aging and found the sacred and the scientific aren't opposites at all.

This is the thesis of her book, Living from the Soul, the Neuroscience of Spiritual Awakening.

And that awakening isn't just a spiritual experience.
