Religious Chanting and Self-Related Brain Regions: A Multi-Modal Neuroimaging Study
Published on: May 31, 2024
Abstract:
Avera Health, Sioux Falls, SD, is committed to providing opportunities for physicians to grow spiritually as well as professionally. This commitment has resulted in several initiatives, among which are the formation of several spirituality/reflection groups for doctors and the practice of beginning physician council meetings with sessions on mission. In a round-robin discussion accompanying the article, several leaders of physician spirituality/reflection groups explain how Avera's emphasis on spiritually has helped them avoid burnout and become better doctors. A list of suggested readings used by the reflection groups reveals the diversity of topics that can fall under the heading of "spirituality".
