Spirituality
A health priority?
Some people are guided by a belief system that includes a ‘higher power’, a god or creator.
Their belief system is deeply personal and somewhat subjective; faith can provide a compass to guide the believer’s choices in life.
Non-believers tend to be guided more by a more ‘scientific’ model.
Regardless, it is important to align your personal beliefs and values to your actions.
Depression and spiritual awakening
What is the point of spirituality?
Book: Happy Mind Happy Life - Dr Rangan Chatterjee 2022
Research shows that people who engage in religious practices are happier than those who don't.
Its only recently that humans started looking to scientists for the key to happiness. For the vast majority of human history, we have looked instead to spiritual leaders for this kind of help.
The religions these wise elders represented were extremely ancient- and often extremely wise. Its no coincidence that all religions have the idea of giving yourself away, in some form or another, at their core.
Religion compels people to give themselves away by practicing forgiveness, gratitude, and by giving the gift of their time.
A lot of people are happy regardless of their struggles, because they have a strong connection to their faith.
