EasyChair Preprint 13345

Abstract

Spirituality plays a significant role in influencing an individual's overall well-being. This abstract explores the various dimensions of spirituality and its profound effects on psychological, physical, and social well-being. The connection between spirituality and well-being is established through increased spiritual well-being, encompassing meaning, purpose, and connectedness. Psychologically, spirituality provides a sense of meaning and purpose, leading to enhanced life satisfaction, happiness, and improved mental health. Spirituality also has physical benefits, such as better stress management and the promotion of health-promoting behaviors. Socially, spirituality fosters social support and facilitates improved interpersonal relationships. Cultural and contextual factors influence the relationship between spirituality and well-being. However, it is essential to acknowledge criticisms and limitations, including the potential for spiritual bypassing and variations in individual experiences. Further research and integration of spirituality within healthcare and well-being practices are necessary to fully understand and harness its potential for promoting well-being.
