Wellness in the spiritual dimension is the ability to establish peace and harmony in our lives through a guiding set of beliefs, faith, values, ethics, and/or moral principles that provide meaning, direction, and purpose. It is also a search for meaning and purpose in human existence leading one to strive for a state of harmony with oneself and others while working to balance inner needs with the rest of the world. Spiritual wellness includes the development of characteristics such as compassion, forgiveness, altruism, optimism, and happiness. It is also a sense of belonging to something greater than oneself and may include formal or informal spiritual practice, religion, or faith.
