I am Convinced About a Spiritual-Social Model

In my last post I was explaining how we can reduce stress. I am convinced that we need to
create or recreate a spiritual-social model to address this emotional baggage that weighs us down.
It can only be implemented from an African perspective because Africa is the oldest and most relevant source of spiritual science. This science is not religion, it is not watered down.

This will allow us to understand our world with a connectivity that underscores all the sensibilities
of human nature and the physical world. Other systems have replaced the original indigenous sciences and systems. This systems are inferior! As we embrace this truth, it opens the door to
measure a psycho-social model  and ask some questions about it's effectiveness.

The Spiritual-Social Model

Continuing from my last post on How do People of Color Handle Stress, I wanted to
discuss the spiritual-social model. Why this model? I never have seen it named it before.
Based on my experiences and and knowledge of religion and spirituality this is a superior
model. Why?

The psycho-social model comes out of Freudian theories. We need a model that addresses
our reality. Spirituality that I speak of relates to indigenous systems. Systems that include
nature, support systems and science that maintains a balance in life. The social component
is one that includes inequality and injustices, else we are just lying to ourselves.

In our process to handle stress, what meta-physical sciences do we apply daily. Let me
simplify. The things that are abstract, these things we don't understand,  God, breath, love, etc...
Almost all cultures have indigenous sciences that have principles that help us live in the physical
world with all it's complications.

How do People of Color Handle Stress

How do people of Color Handle Stress? There are an entire set of stresses that don’t 

apply to other ethnic groups. Yet, after we deal with the biological and physical

understanding of how stress affects the body, we can then began with the reality of

people of color, here in the Americas.

In fairness, I must state that the system that people of color are in, has systematically failed us,

and is set up to limit the very nature of our existence. If I am to teach people of color this is the 

first thing I must say. Now we can begin.

First, introspection is a key element at this point. Specifically, the examination or observation of one's 

own mental and emotional processes; I also suggest we use a spiritual-social model, verses a psycho-social 

model. My reasoning is it is the spiritual teaching coupled with our reality that can provide us with tools to grow. 

Spirituality is different from religion but it should be addressed to gather a proper assessment.
