Little Lulu,for me tending to my spiritual needs is part of taking care of my mental health needs. Actually for me the spiritual, psychological and physical are all intertwined. Thankfully I have a pdoc with similar beliefs. I take my meds. I need them to give me the base I need to work from. I also have to take care of my physical needs, food, exercise, shelter, etc. My spiritual stuff is more... I can't think of the words I want. I am not a religious person, but I consider myself spiritual. I guess the most important thing I need to do for my spiritual self is to connect with the outdoors. I also meditate, read uplifting books, watch uplifting movies (I will confess that what's uplifting for me might not be for others) and cuddle with my furbabies.
BTW, good question.
