Spirituality
Spirituality is a precious and empowering attribute that can greatly expand our capacity for wellness and joy in life. It consists of seeing a bigger picture - seeing how we fit in the larger scheme of things - what we contribute - what purposes we fulfill - what part we play in the unfolding drama of human life.
For some people, spirituality includes attachment to a particular religious faith, or active participation in a religious community. For others, spirituality may be found most abundantly on mouintaintop, or in a tree-lined forest, or even just in writing in their own personal journal. Some people enjoy both religious and non-religious elements of spirituality. In whatever form resonates with the individual, spirituality contributes greatly to wellness, peace, and a sense of purpose in life. The resources in this section can help contribute to the development of heartfelt, powerful spirituality.
