hello lovers of natural medicine
I have read posts on the #naturalmedicine community and have come across challenges about spirituality

I really want to participate in this challenge and invite friends
for now I am more focused on the first point, namely. "what's spirituality to you"
Currently spirituality has become one of the most important parts of human life, especially in terms of health. Even spiritual services have also been provided online which have a very strong appeal to people seeking treatment for spiritual and physical ailments. sometimes for other purposes
Spiritual value is self-awareness of origin, purpose and destiny, while religion is a testimony of faith which is considered the absolute truth of the life that a person lives on earth. Spiritual provides answers to who, how one's existence and consciousness, while religion provides answers to what a person should do in behaving and acting.
Religion is not the same as spiritual, but religion is a form of spirituality that lives in human personal and communal civilization. Any religion provides a path to the spiritual, even though people who adhere to the same religion, do not necessarily have the same path or spiritual level. On the other hand, a person may have a different spirituality from religion

In religion-based spiritualism, certain inspirations from one or more religious traditions can be used as a means to an end.
In spiritualism not based on religion there is usually a lack of belief in religion. Such spiritualism bases itself on secular or humanistic values, such as relating to other people at work or in society and having a higher purpose in life without needing to refer to God or the Creator

almost all religions believe. In general, humans consist of 2 elements
- metaphysical (spiritual, soul)
Humans are not called humans if they don't have a soul, so a body without a soul is meaningless. So the human soul is created by a creator to inhabit the body and soul that controls a person's heart and mind. - Physical (body)
physical element is the body in which the human soul lives. Physically with humans who carry out all their activities in the world and they are also recognized by their physical form and appearance

In my opinion. both elements are very susceptible to disease. but the types and forms of the disease are different. For example.
Spiritual illness, such as a disturbance in belief or value system, involves difficulty feeling the meaning and purpose of life through relationships with oneself, other people, the environment or God. doubt, ignorance, hypocrisy, envy, pride, etc. If someone is suffering from spiritual pain, it will be very dangerous that can happen to someone without realizing it, even really enjoying it. The impact of a disease on a person can have a broad impact
meanwhile, physical disease is a disease that damages and causes illness in the body. If a person is suffering from a physical illness, he does his best to cure it. Money is spent on healing, no matter how much it costs for recovery. The impact of physical illness only affects the person concerned
Spirituality has become the most important part of health because it is believed to have a very strong healing power so that it is able to contribute as a medicine and cure all kinds of diseases with elements of human belief.
In essence, spirituality in my view is a network that produces a balanced connection, a harmony of your own mind, soul and body, pointing in the same direction so that you can find yourself, inner peace, and make peace with yourself helps you understand others, not because you get all the answers but you can understand what other people are going through because your mind is not overwhelmed.
