6) God, faith and health-Exploring the spirituality-healing connection
The book explores the latest compelling evidence of the connection between health and an array of spiritual beliefs and practices, including prayer, attending religious services, meditation, & faith in god. It shows how religion's emphasis on healthy behaviors and supportive relationships influences one's overall health and how the optimism and hopefulness of those who profess faith promote the body's healing responses. Filled with personal stories the book will alter the way one thinks about one's body and one's faith and will thus show one the path to improving one's health through spiritual practice.
