What to change in order to preserve the earth (Continued)

Spirituality plays a big role in our mindset and actions. Our mindset and our actions can only help us achieve so much and when it comes to preserving the earth spirituality is a major factor. At the end of the day we have to “change how we think, see, hear, and feel.”(Pg.230) Recent studies have shown that spirituality could be as important as fitness or nutrition for your health. Stretching this point even further some scientists believe that not having any spiritual beliefs could be a potential risk factor for a person. Researchers have found that in general, people who are spiritual have a more positive outlook on life. Many people feel that spirituality gives us a more positive outlook and a belief in a brighter feature. For example, when people have health issues spirituality helps because their beliefs comfort them, help them to be more optimistic and they are more likely to achieve health goals, as well as believe that they will get better. So if we change our mental state and view our environment in a positive light I can almost guarantee a positive outcome.
