    Frequently Asked Questions about Spirituality

    It’s important to learn about spirituality because it touches all of humanity in ways that affect well-being, happiness, life fulfillment, and how we address issues of death. The term spirituality is a broad one with many aspects to study, including Buddhism, science, and the effects of modern meditative practices to the importance of bringing a curriculum of social and emotional learning into prekindergarten through high school classrooms. Philosophy, science, and religion also fall under the heading of spirituality because it can help you to think more meaningfully about your beliefs and your place in the world.
