Dawson Church created a 22-day Mindvalley program that uses MRI scans of long-term meditators to teach their brain states through daily 20-minute sessions. The 'Mystic Brain' quest targets seven neuromodulators like dopamine and oxytocin, aiming to bring the happiness of spiritual masters into everyday life.

I'm Dawson Church and I invite you to join me on my mindvalley quest to reaching extraordinary states of happiness experienced by spiritual masters and mystics. Science shows that people can get way more happier than they think they can. Science also shows there's a huge range of wellness, of happiness, of joy that is far beyond your current set points. And my invitation to you on this quest is to explore those upper reaches of how happy you can become. In ages past, you had to go and join a monastery or a convent. You had to spend 10,000 hours in difficult practices as an apprentice. You had to renounce everyday life and it was difficult to move through all those stages to learn the secrets of acquiring that brain of the mystic. Now we can bring you there in just 22 days using modern scientifically based methods. But what we have done is we put people like Tibetan monks who spend 10,000 hours in meditation, or Franciscan nuns who spend 25 years in contemplative prayer inside an MRI and we map their brain states. We then reverse engineer the process. I put together a program that trains you systematically, step by step to reach those elevated peak states as well. You don't have to put in 10,000 hours of meditation to reach that level of happiness. I'm going to show you how to get there. Within 22 days, you'll use a science based method called eco meditation. Each track is around 20 minutes long. The lessons in the quest are based on on evoking a felt sense in your body of each of the seven molecules of bliss rain. These are dopamine, oxytocin, norepinephrine, serotonin, nitric oxide, beta endorphin and anandamide. Each segment of the quest contains inspiration, meditations, evocation, sensualization, symbolism, and finally integration. By the end of this quest, you will be able to reach states of extraordinary happiness. As you practice these states of meditation over and over and over again, they begin to work their way into your everyday life. You're standing in line in the grocery store and suddenly you're in a peak state. You're in the car wash and you find yourself in a peak state. You're changing diapers and you're in a peak state. As you practice the peak states in this mindvalley quest, they gradually become not just something you experience in that special hour of meditation in the they become your everyday state, your everyday reality. My brand new quest, Mindvalley, allows you to reach those peak states of the mystics quickly, whenever you want to. Sam.
