Special Interest Groups (SIGs)
| INSS connects you to a growing community of researchers, educators, scholars and practitioners involved in the study of spirituality in its myriad aspects. While our conferences are powerful events to meet, learn, develop ideas and plan collaborations, our Special Interest Groups provide a means for you to engage far more deeply with others on a specific aspect of spirituality. |

Proposals for new SIGs should be discussed with the SIGs coordinator, Melanie Rogers, via sigs@spiritualitystudiesnetwork.org.
Spirituality and Consciousness
| The SASIG meets to discuss the intersection of the arts and spirituality in a variety of forms and mediums such as visual art, music, film, dance, digital, interactive, poetry, time-based and performative art forms. This includes the personal, social and cultural, encompassing both the religious and the spiritual-but-not-religious context. | 
This SIG focuses on spirituality, mental health and wellbeing predominantly in the contexts of research, scholarship, healthcare and therapeutic practice. It provides a co-created diverse space to enable reflection and discussion of pertinent themes and issues connected within this topic, as well as to skill-share and inspire ideas and learning. |
Previous SIGs have included Higher Education and Spirituality in End-of-Life Care |
