For too long we have believed that Spirituality is a private matter that cannot be spoken about. There is now so much research to say that Spirituality ( all kinds: atheistic, humanistic, environmental, religious etc) is good for us that we can no longer ignore it. Spirituality is deeply personal but it is not a private matter - it's a matter of public health and the next frontier of workplace wellness.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
