Spirituality lives in the body as well

Given our history and cultural context, it is all too easy to believe that the spiritual life may be a life opposed to the body or even, at its "best," a totally disembodied mode of existence. So the idea is widespread that you can only be really spiritual after you are dead. This is where the popular idea that the spiritual frustrates or even harms the body originates. This view is found throughout Western history. But in our discussions thus far concerning the spiritual life and the spiritual person, nothing has been said about the suppression of the body. The omission is no accident. It is absolutely central to the meaning of the gospel and its relation to human nature.
