spiritual nourishment
Food for spirit
Spiritual nourishment is what sustains or strengthens a person's inner life, soul, or sense of meaning.
The metaphor treats the spirit like the body—something that needs regular feeding to thrive.
Prayer, meditation, nature, art, or community might provide spiritual nourishment depending on one's beliefs: She found spiritual nourishment in her morning walks by the river.
