Question: Prompt: Your reflective journal for this week is your response to the session with Dr. Craigie with incorporation of the content of Chapter 4 in the Craigie book.

1) Consider who provides spiritual care, have you had an experience with spiritual care being provided by someone other than a designated spiritual provider?

2) What do you perceive as the role of the clinician as spiritual provider?

3) How do we as health and wellness providers provide spiritual care?

Summary: The purpose of the reflective exercises is to allow for analysis, synthesis and evaluation of nursing theory using guided questions. Reflection has been referred to as a process that happens internally, privately or in isolation (Hill & Watson, 2011). Also, reflection has been referred to as the examination of an issue of concern, as a consequence of experience, creating clarity and meaning in terms of self, and which results in a change of perspective ( Boyd & Fales, 1983).
