WS 14 - SHARING SPIRITUAL VALUES WITH PATIENTS AND GUESTS | TERCEIRA

Spirituality is not just another tool or forgotten dimension in the treatment of illnesses, but rather it is what defines the very essence of the being. In the recovery process: identity and relationship are two vital elements both in the cause of illness and in the recovery from it.
