Your spiritual wellness is the way you connect with the values, purpose, and meaning you establish for yourself in life. While those may sound like some hefty topics to explore, the process can be more natural than you might think. Spiritual wellness stems from our fundamental views of right and wrong and how we treat the world around us.
The DBSA Wellness Wheel can help you organize your thoughts, wellness goals and ideas to work towards spiritual wellness.
Connecting with your spirituality doesn’t have to be formal or time-consuming. Try taking some time to quiet your mind, whether that’s by taking a walk, writing in your journal, or meditating. However, you are called to reflect, you are worthy and deserving of time to cherish the uniqueness that is being human. If you feel called to practice gratitude, start by thinking of what you are grateful for or sharing it with others.
