The increasing burden of infectious and non-communicable diseases highlights the need for a holistic approach to public health, integrating spirituality with physical and mental health. Traditional health models lack this crucial integration. This study aims to develop a Spiritually Based Health Intelligence model that integrates physical, mental, and spiritual health dimensions. It explores the role of spirituality in enhancing community health and proposes inclusive public health policies. A qualitative research approach was employed, using secondary data from peer-reviewed journals, books, and articles. Data were analyzed through content, comparative, and critical analysis to develop a conceptual framework for spiritually-based Health Intelligence. The Spiritually-Based Health Intelligence model promotes a comprehensive, holistic approach to health, integrating physical, mental, and spiritual dimensions. This model encourages community empowerment and self-sustaining health behaviours. The findings underscore the need for culturally sensitive and spiritually inclusive health policies, highlighting the role of spirituality in achieving optimal health. This study introduces a novel conceptual framework that expands current public health paradigms by integrating spirituality as a core determinant of health. It presents a transformative health promotion model, emphasizing the importance of integrating spirituality with health intelligence to enhance well-being at the individual and community levels.
