But there has been a good deal of documented research that supports the assertion that spiritual healing and prayer can have significant physical benefits. Many programs that help people overcome substance abuse, such as Alcoholics Anonymous, are based on spiritual healing principles. By working through the spiritual effects of past events, unhappy memories, childhood abuse, trauma and other factors that can cause substance abuse, the program offers people a way to not only kick their physical habit, but also heal the underlying issues that may be leading to that abusive behavior in the first place.

Depression is another condition that can have a debilitating effect on a persons life. Spiritual healing, including prayer, has been shown to correlate to a lower incidence of depression. In fact, in a study in Michigan, the results showed the African American men who placed a high priority on their persona spiritual journey were less likely to suffer from depression that those who did not pray. Likewise, a study in South Carolina demonstrated that new moms, and their babies, were less likely to suffer from common medical complications than non-religious moms. Even in devastating diseases like cancer, spiritual healing and prayer has been shown to be of enormous benefit. A group of researchers in Texas demonstrated that a strong religious faith and belief in the power of prayer to heal generally predicted a better outcome for surviving cancer. Patients who had an active spiritual life were more likely to recover and suffer fewer complications. Most reputable spiritual healers will advise you to continue to work with your health care provider to address physical problems, as well as adding a spiritual element to your therapy. It is important to keep your physician informed of any new therapies you are adding, and find a health care provider who will work with you to find a good balance of medical and spiritual help.
