Spiritual Well-Being

Both medical and mental health professionals are becoming increasingly aware of the potential benefits of spirituality as a means for coping with stress. Spirituality is the infusion and drawing out of spirit in one’s life. The spiritual tendency moves the individual towards knowledge, meaning, hope, connectedness, compassion, and transcendence. It includes one’s capacity for creativity, growth, and development.
