Deployment can challenge long held beliefs. For some people it is the first time they have thought seriously about spiritual concerns. Still others find their deployment experience strengthens their belief system, whether it has a spiritual component or not. If you'd like to explore the role spirituality plays in your life, you'll find this material interesting and useful. Take an assessment to get feedback on how you are doing or jump into the workshops to learn more about the role of spirituality in your life. Check out the videos of others discussing spirituality, and explore the e-library for in-depth information. 

Spirituality is about connection; connection with people and with a deity or divine presence. It is also about meaning: asking what matters. For many people, being spiritual is part of being religious. Others may be spiritual without any religious affiliation. People who are spiritually fit, who are living with a purpose and in connection with the world around them, tend to have stronger self-esteem, better coping skills, and more solid relationships. Spiritual fitness can also bond people through love, forgiveness and compassion.

The Spirituality Assessment, and each of the related assessments below, takes about five minutes to complete; recommendations follow based on your results.
