faith-based wellness programs

Faith-based wellness programs are health initiatives that incorporate spiritual beliefs and practices to promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being. These programs often draw on religious teachings, rituals, or community support to encourage healthier behaviors such as improved diet, exercise, stress reduction, and smoking cessation. They aim to address health holistically, recognizing the connection between faith, purpose, and overall wellness, while fostering a sense of community and spiritual growth. By integrating spiritual values, these programs seek to motivate individuals in a culturally sensitive and meaningful way, often within faith communities or organizations.
