MASTERS OF CHRISTIAN SPIRITUALITY AND RESILENCE AN APROACH FROM HEALTH PSICHOLOGY

Abstract

Spirituality and resilience are very important constructs in health psychology. Although there are many studies that try to relate spirituality with resilience, we believe that there is still a lack of connections with respect to a specific proposal of spirituality that helps to live a life in the key of resilience, beyond being going through traumatic situations or not. In our study we will present some points for the experience of a specific spirituality: the Christian one. At the same time, we will observe the correspondences between the teachings of the masters of Christian spirituality and the proposal of a life from a salutogenic perspective. We believe that these brief lines can be an approximation, as a starting point to develop, in other more profound investigations, the great existing links between the Christian spiritual tradition with what is developed today from the psychology of health for a life that unfolds all the potentialities of the human person.
