Summary / Abstract:

ENSpirituality is often significant for those undergoing suicide bereavement. Our study aimed to explore how women, who are bereaved by their partner’s suicide, describe spirituality. 11 semi-structured interviews have been conducted with female participants using reflexive thematic analysis. Six themes were identi-fied: Spirituality as a resource, Spirituality as a relationship; Spirituality is universal; Spirituality is a changing phenomenon; Spirituality requires effort; Spirituality is between knowing, sensation, and feeling. Female participants who experience bereavement following a partner’s suicide described their understanding of spiri-tuality as a multidimensional phenomenon. Interpretations and practical guidelines are formed. Keywords: spirituality; suicide bereavement; qualitative research; thematic analysis.
