Pathways to Wholeness Video Series
Communities thrive when people flourish in their spiritual practices. People who relate well to their own self, their bodies, their neighbors, the natural world and consciously engage the systems in which they participate are better able to build healthy communities. Pathways to Wholeness is an invitation to explore the power of spirituality to build healthy communities.
See the ways faith leaders and health practitioners in California are integrating spirituality and religion to bring wholistic health to their communities. These organizations use the power of storytelling to build resilience and bring healing to the individuals they serve.
