What is the connection between our physical health, mental health, and spiritual well-
being? How does one affect the other and what do they have to do with healing? In the
book “The Power of Healing Prayer,” Fr. Richard McAlear, OMI explains, “There exists
the mind, emotions and intellect as well as the human spirit and they all interrelated…We
now understand better that health involves the whole person- body, mind and spirit and
each relates to and affects the rest.” How does this happen? What do psychologists
say about this connection and more importantly how does our faith enter into the
healing process of physical ailments, emotional distress, and many other afflictions.

components into our daily lives to promote wellness.
