I always defined Theology is what you think in your head, Religion as what you do with your hands, and Spirituality is what you perceive in your heart. Is that right?

I believe there are others who would ascribe to those definitions. My brain’s opinion is that there is no one way to define these concepts. There may be as many ways as there are individuals inhabiting Planet Earth. According to studies by Andrew Newberg, a Neuro Theologian, and Mark Waldman, co-authors of a book entitled How God Changes Your Brain, Americans are becoming less religious but more spiritual as they embrace images of a universe that is scientific yet mystical. Studies at the University of Pennsylvania Center for Spirituality and the Mind regarding the effects of different spiritual practices have shown that individuals who regularly engaged in these spiritual practices exhibited significant improvements in memory, cognition, and compassion, along with a reduction in anxiety, depression, irritability, and stress.
