Spiritual

For me, spirituality is all about living a happier life at the moment, responding to situations rather than reacting, de-programming and connecting with myself to come with a fresh response to situations that repeat. Spiritual means relating to people’s thoughts and beliefs rather to their body and physical surroundings.

It usually also means relating to people’s religious beliefs. Some may find that their spiritual life is linked to their association with a church, temple, mosque, or synagogue. Others may pray or find comfort in a personal relationship with God or a higher power. Still, others seek meaning through their connections to nature or art. Like your sense of purpose, your personal definition of spirituality may change throughout your life, adapting to your own experiences and relationships.

Spirituality is a broad concept with many perspectives. In general, it includes a sense of connection to something bigger than ourselves, and it typically involves a search for meaning in life. As such, it is a universal human experience—something that touches us all. People may describe a spiritual experience as sacred or transcendent or simply a deep sense of aliveness and interconnectedness.
