SPIRITUAL WELLBEING "FAITH AND PRAYER ARE THE VITAMINS OF THE SOUL; MAN CANNOT LIVE IN HEALTH WITHOUT THEM." MAHALIA JACKSON
Spiritual wellbeing involves seeking purpose and meaning in your life. To question and to appreciate the things which cannot be explained or understood. Harmony with what is within you and what is on the outside. Having a set of guiding beliefs that help give direction to your life.

Activities like prayer, meditating or spending time in nature all help with our spiritual wellbeing.

WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY...
Jesus said:
Looking after our spiritual wellbeing is so important. Don’t think of it as something that will drain you. Think about it as something you need to keep topped up. When we are busy and pre-occupied, we are unable to be fully present with God. It squeezes God out of our lives. We are reminded we need God. We need to connect to God’s energy and joy, however that is for you; going to be by the sea, up a mountain, near a lake, listening to music or being with friends. In this section we will look at different ways to connect with God.
