Some ways to encourage spiritual wellness

1. Explore your spiritual core - ask yourself "Why am I here," "What is my purpose", etc.

2. Meditate and spend time alone to focus on the present to help achieve inner peace.

3. Search, be curious, and ask questions. Check out all the options before you shut something out.

4. Be receptive to pain, allow yourself to fully feel the pain and then reflect on what it's teaching you.

5. Take action and "do" rather than just reading or learning.

6. Ask yourself what the consequences of a choice will be and what the choice will bring. If it brings happiness or fulfillment, go for it. If there is discomfort, pause and re-evaluate.

7. See life as it should be. Take responsibility and learn from your experiences.

8. Allow yourself and others to be who they are. Give others freedom. Solutions can come out of problems.

9. Play and enjoy music, dance, and art as part of spirituality.

10. Look for deeper meanings and themes in life events.

11. Take breathing breaks. Stop, close your eyes, then do at least 7 deep, slow breaths.
