Spiritual health
Spiritual health, in the PEMS framework taught by EHF Canada in Caledon East, Ontario, is the spiritual body: the connection from the soul to the body, shown as meaning, purpose and inner guidance. It holds the other three bodies together. It is educational, not clinical, and works alongside medical care. Book a call to talk it through.
What is spiritual health in the PEMS framework?
The spiritual body is the connection from the soul to the body. In the EHF teachings, the soul is a partner living within the human body, and the spiritual body is the bridge between them. It shows up as our sense of meaning, purpose and inner guidance, and it holds the other three bodies together.
This page is educational. It does not diagnose, treat or cure anything, and EHF works alongside, never in place of, medical or palliative care.
Why it matters
Why does the spiritual body matter?
The course describes the spiritual body as the place where inner growth begins, with energy then flowing outward into the mental, emotional and physical bodies. In this teaching, a faint connection can make everything else feel heavier, while a close one is described as feeling grounded and purposeful in ordinary days.

The whole person
How do the four bodies work together?
The EHF course describes the four bodies as linked like a great web of communication.
In the web of the four bodies, the spiritual body holds the other three together, with energy flowing outward from it into the mental, emotional and physical bodies.
That is why EHF practice works with all four, with fire as the spark of change. Grounding and nourishment are the starting points for the body, honest feeling and self-forgiveness for the heart, breath and awareness for the mind, and meditation and self-love for the soul-to-body connection.
Wherever you begin, you are already working with the whole of you.
