Spirituality and Natural Medicine Education

The research examines the role of spirituality in the culture and curriculum of selected naturopathy training programs in Australia, emphasizing its significance in achieving holistic health through the integration of body, mind, and spirit. While spirituality is recognized as a core principle of naturopathy, the study reveals that it is not consistently or thoroughly incorporated into educational practices, with exceptions noted in homeopathy instruction. This inconsistency raises concerns regarding the identity and integrity of the naturopathy profession.
