Abstract

Este artículo presenta una investigación cualitativa sobre la relación entre religiosidad y salud humana, revelando cómo las creencias religiosas influyen en el bienestar físico y mental. Entrevistas en profundidad a siete participantes evidenciaron una conexión significativa, destacando prácticas como la oración y la meditación asociadas con beneficios para la salud. El estudio subraya la importancia de considerar la dimensión religiosa en la promoción de la salud, señalando la necesidad de futuras investigaciones para comprender mejor estos mecanismos y su aplicabilidad en la atención médica y la salud pública.
