Spiritual wellness is about discovering your meaning and purpose in life. It includes embracing self-love, aligning with your highest potential, and understanding the values and beliefs that shape your choices. Research shows that spiritual wellness helps reduce stress and anxiety while enhancing well-being, coping skills, and overall longevity. When you live with intention, you live on purpose, making conscious choices that align with the life God has planned for you.
