Spirituality
Spirituality is a broad concept which has many perspectives.
Generally it includes a sense of connecting to something bigger than ourselves, and can involve looking for meaning in life. It is a universal human experience—something that touches us all.
Some people find their spiritual life is linked to a church, temple, a higher being, prayer, the practice of yoga or meditation.
Others find meaning and purpose through connection to nature or art. For Indigenous Australians, country (the land) has a strong spiritual connection.
Writing or journaling are also ways of connecting to your experiences and the world around you.
Your own definition of spirituality may change through your life, adapting to your experiences and relationships – sometimes people with a life-limiting illness feel the need to connect with their spiritual self.
