Moving beyond surface-level wellness strategies, this session conceptualizes self-care as a sacred, culturally responsive process rooted in diverse spiritual and religious traditions. Participants will examine how practices such as mindfulness, prayer, meditation, Sabbath rest, compassion, and ritual function as both preventative and restorative interventions across traditions including Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Judaism, and Indigenous spiritualities. Practical strategies will be provided to help clinicians ethically and effectively incorporate spiritually integrated self-care practices into clinical work, enhancing client wellness while honoring cultural and spiritual diversity.
