In her recent article in Westminster Patch in Maryland, Kate Johnson, who writes about spirituality and health, takes a look at how women find better health by looking within.

Here are three excerpts showing some of the examples Johnson shares:

• Dr. Riina, a family physician, “helps patients tap into their own spirituality to reduce stress and explore their potential for healing themselves.  “
• Kanae Kinoshita, a chaplain at Bridgeport Health in Toronto, who provides spiritual care at the end of life, helps patients to “see how their beliefs have the power to shape their lives.”
• Maria Rossiter-Thornton, a registered nurse “spoke of Helen Keller who said that everything must be felt with the heart. “
