Mental health and spirituality are arguably intertwined aspects of human nature. However, they are often addressed in isolation, neglecting the impact each has on the other.
This book explores the intersections between spirituality and mental health by bridging the insights of neuroscience, psychiatry, and spirituality. It emphasises the need for a person-centred approach that goes beyond symptom reduction, recognising the profound interconnections among the brain, mind, and spirit.
Divided into three sections, the book begins with discussion on the fundamentals of spirituality. The second section examines preventive and therapeutic aspects of spirituality and mental health, and the third section covers spirituality beyond clinical practice.
This book is an invaluable resource for clinicians, researchers and educators, challenging them to rethink the ways in which spirituality and mental health are understood and promoted.
