Answer to Question 1

Answer: Certain forms of yoga, especially those that emphasize controlled breathing, chanting, and meditation, have been a part of spiritual practice for centuries and can be practiced today; classes are available at yoga centers and many other fitness locations. Various forms of Eastern meditative movement techniques, such as tai chi, and exercise in general can energize the body and sharpen mental focus, thus contributing to spiritual health.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: There is an association between spiritual health and positive physiological changes. Studies have shown that spiritual health improves immunity, decreases the risk of cardiovascular disease, decreases anxiety and depression, decreases alcohol and drug abuse, improves the ability to cope with illness and medical treatments, and increases feelings of optimism and hope.
