N2  - Religious affiliation, spirituality, and spiritual practices often have been studied as protective factors in the prevention and treatment of hazardous alcohol consumption (defined as drinking at a level that causes significant problems in functioning or that increases potential harms) and alcohol use disorder (AUD). Specifically, researchers have been interested in whether spirituality and spiritual practices, commonly associated with personal transformation, may also help in personal transformation of substance use behaviors. Personal transformation may involve elements-such as mindfulness and acceptance of a problem-that form the bases of behavioral treatments for substance use disorders, including AUD. Therefore, researchers are interested in whether spirituality can have a positive influence on AUD recovery.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
