Interest in spirituality and wellbeing is rising. However, research
in that area is still lacking, in particular from a non-medical
perspective. This book shows how the relationship between wellbeing
and spirituality is studied by a range of disciplines including
religious studies, theology, anthropology, psychology and history.
The introduction discusses the term `wellbeing' and introduces the
debate on spirituality and wellbeing. The editors give a broad
definition of spirituality and show the multifaceted nature of
wellbeing and how it is linked to spirituality. Each chapter then
reflects on the topic in its unique way which shows the
interdisciplinary nature of the subject. The authors represent a
rich breadth of disciplines and bring in a range of perspectives.
The chapters also link the debate to various religious traditions
including Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, Afro-Brazilian religion
and even paranormal experiences that will further the reflection on
the link between spirituality and wellbeing.
