Sažetak
The paper deals with relation of spirituality and religion as well as its influence on mental and spiritual health. It analyzes how
people use their beliefs and religion as help in restoring balance necessary for attaining mental health. The paper also points out the
significance of spirituality and spiritual peace as the component of mental health and its preservation. The purpose of this paper is to
show that religious people deal easier and better with dangers which can damage mental health. That is noticed through longer
lifespan and rare illnesses. However, spirituality is not a guarantee that religious persons will not suffer from mental disorders
which can result in mental illnesses and their consequences. Illness usually leads to distorted self-image and the environment which
surrounds the patient. Being a religious person does not mean being exempt from illness, but religious persons deal easier with
illness and going through the healing process.
