What is spiritual health? does it actually affect physical health?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It could.: Spiritual health is not easily defined because it may mean different things for different people. I would say that it is a sense of connection to the divine (whatever that might mean for the individual) as well as a connection to the cosmos and humanity in general. It is not a religion, or a set of dogmatic rules to live by. Mind, body and spirit are all connected, so one affects all.
