Abstract

This paper aims to highlight the spirituality valuing in Popular Health Education practices developed in Primary Care. The work developed in health Primary Care regards the individual in his essence, as a being that has biological, psychological, social and spiritual needs, which must be noticed and met. The educational action, guided by popular education, favors the encounter with this subtle dimension, the so-called spirituality, as it is developed based on principles involving the strengthening of ties, the relationship through dialogue, sensitive listening, solidarity, affection, human dignity appreciation, among others. In times of pain and suffering, the spirituality appreciation can be very transformative, leading patients and their families to renew the spirit and seek new ways of coping with the challenging reality they experience. It is concludes, among other things, that this topic has been poorly discussed in health academic education. It suggests that the academies prioritize the spirituality topic in their curricula, allowing the upcoming professional to acquire greater knowledge extensiveness in order to be better prepared for the daily practice in the context of Primary Care.
