Abstract

The connections between spirituality and its manifestation in built architecture are only being considered in a more holistic way. The studies that Miller has reviewed examine spirituality's influence on people from diverse empirical science approaches. A deeper discussion of the built space's role in spiritual wellness should begin with a review of spirituality itself. People experience spirituality through a biologically grounded capability present from birth. Empirical scientists are exploring the outcomes of people's adherence to spiritual beliefs. The desire for spiritual development may also vary throughout a person's life. Lisa Miller et al. have identified that spiritual awareness surges in adolescence, which is synchronous with the onset of depression for some individuals—and is something that spiritual assets can aid in counteracting. Further evidence for the decline of spiritual prioritization in the West comes from a Pew Research Center survey that assesses peoples' spiritual attitudes within the United States.
