Rev. Dr. Shaleen Kendrick is an Open and Relational Neurotheologian working at the intersection of neuroscience, sacred storytelling, and culture — exploring how all three shape humans from the cellular to the relational. Neurospirituality — the neuroscience of spirituality as an innate human capacity — is her domain. She educates, trains NRI practitioners, and consults across corporate and faith-based spaces. Same science. Language adjusted to fit the context. Her book Your Three Brains: The Neuroscience & Spirituality of Wholeness (Orbis Books), now on presale, makes wholeness-making who you are and what you do — practically integrated as a way of daily life. She lives in Phoenix with her spouse, four kids, and three puppies — convinced that integration as spiritual praxis is human evolution in practice.

| Title Short | Eve Didn’t Fall. She Evolved. So Can You. |
| Venue | Workshop |
| Experience Description | Time to end two thousand years of mapping shame and blame onto Eve.
Mythic Eve wasn't the world's first sinner. Through the lens of NEUROSPIRITUALITY, she is a mythic representation of how curiosity evolves human beings. She didn't destroy humanity. In myth, she shows how human consciousness expands.
Make no mistake, we are fragmenting. But, not because we \fell from grace\ and NOT because we are broken — because we are functioning in discord. Overwhelmed. Experiencing evolutionary mismatch. And searching for meaning in systems never meant to nurture wholeness-making.
Ancient wisdom alone isn't enough. Science alone isn't enough. But sacred storytelling shaped by evolutionary science? That's the integration this moment demands.
Every culture carries this story. Skywoman collaborates creation into existence. Kundalini rises toward awakening. Lilith claims her full humanity. Mythic Eve reaches for wisdom — and consciousness ignites. These aren't competing stories. They're one universal story: how you became capable of asking \Who am I? And how do I evolve?\
Come experience what happens in your Mind-Body-Spirit when myth and neuroscience shape each other to shape YOU. Discover that what the Western world calls the fall of humankind is what neuroscience calls the PACE cycle — your three brain's precise evolutionary sequence for choosing curiosity over shutdown.
Your curiosity doesn't break humanity. It evolves humanity.

| Title Short | How Regulating Your Nervous System Has Always BEEN Spiritual Praxis |
| Venue | Workshop |
| Experience Description | She walked to that well at noon. Alone. Parched. Searching outside herself for what lived within.
She was never the town whore. Through her encounter with a stranger at a well, she became a neurospirituality teacher for the ages.
Two thousand years of religion shamed her. Neuroscience vindicates her.
What she sought at that well has a name your body already knows. Yogic tradition calls it prana. Chinese medicine calls it qi. Ancient Aramaic calls it hayye dalma — the life energy of all worlds. Neuroscience calls it ventral vagal activation. Your soul nerve. Your internal fountain of vitality.
She wasn't searching for a man. She was searching for what every human nervous system craves: safety, regulation, and wholeness-making. She found it. And she ran back to her community to say — come and see.
This is neurospirituality. Ancient sacred wisdom and cutting-edge science converging to reveal what your nervous system has always known.
Come experience what happens in your body when a two-thousand-year-old story meets your actual nervous system. Leave with somatic practices that return you to your own internal fountain — on Monday morning, not just Sunday.
The living water was never outside you.
