Abstract:   (209 Views)
Introduction: Mary White's theory of spiritual self-care is derived from Orem's theory. This theory defines spiritual self-care as a set of practices based on spirituality that are defined in order to promote recovery and health. Therefore, since spirituality is considered one of the pillars of nursing care, this study was conducted with the aim of applying Mary White's model of spiritual self-care on health behaviors.
Methods: This review study examined articles related to the self-care pattern based on the keywords of spiritual self-care, spirituality, and Mary White's self-care theory within the time frame of 2010 to 2025. 17 articles were thoroughly reviewed.
Results: The results demonstrated the effectiveness of the spiritual self-care model on psychological variables such as resilience, care burden, self-efficacy, anxiety and physiological variables such as sleep quality, insomnia severity, and diabetes complications control.
Discussion: Spiritual self-care is an important dimension of physical, mental, and social health that can help reduce stress, improve quality of life, and strengthen the immune system. Based on the available findings, it is recommended that individuals and health professionals pay more attention to this dimension of self-care and provide practical strategies to improve it.
