That was the question posed by The Huffington Post. It seems that Americans are veering more and more away from formal religion and focusing on self improvement instead. They boldly state that:
… more and more people are connecting with regular and diverse spiritual practices such as meditation, yoga, mindfulness, expressive arts (such as dance, group singing/chanting), self-help studies, and spiritual travel. These things can all be done in connection with religious affiliation or without. These are not belief systems, they are active practices that shift awareness, emotion and help us to see where we get stuck in life.
