Summary
Spiritual well-being is a newly known dimension of health emerged after physical, mental, and social dimensions. It is of paramount importance to consider all aspects of health, including spiritual wellbeing, in the development of a holistic view of human being [1]. A review study referred to the extensive evidence about the positive effects of spiritual wellbeing interventions on the reduction of stress, anxiety, and depression among individuals [3]. Religious education was reported to increase the tranquility and mental health of pregnant women and enabled them to cope with severe anxiety during pregnancy. The women receiving such education successfully managed to reduce their anxiety level, compared to the group without any training. Mother's general health, including spiritual well-being, is a prerequisite for neonatal health. This study aimed to investigate the relationship of maternal spiritual well-being with the nutritional behavior and psychological parameters of neonates
