Abstract Mental health issues among working professionals have become a major concern due to increasing occupational stress, technological pressure, and work–life imbalance. In recent years, spirituality has emerged as a potential psychological resource that can enhance emotional resilience, purpose in life, and psychological well-being. Spiritual study—comprising reflective practices, meditation, spiritual texts, and value-based learning—has been increasingly investigated as an intervention to improve mental health outcomes. This research review analyses approximately twenty recent empirical and theoretical studies examining the relationship between spirituality and mental health in workplace contexts. Existing literature indicates that spirituality positively influences psychological well-being, reduces stress and anxiety, and enhances work engagement and life satisfaction. Studies also suggest that workplace spirituality fosters a sense of community, meaningful work, and ethical behaviour, which indirectly improves mental health among employees. However, there remains a lack of empirical research specifically examining the structured impact of spiritual study programmes on working professionals’ mental health across different industries and cultures. This review identifies critical research gaps and proposes a mixed-method empirical framework to evaluate the effectiveness of structured spiritual study interventions. The proposed methodology includes survey instruments, psychological assessment scales, and longitudinal experimental designs to examine causal relationships. The paper also presents testable hypotheses related to spirituality, psychological well-being, stress reduction, and job satisfaction among working professionals.
