Spirituality
 Traditional
Hmong spirituality is a form of animism in which the shaman plays an
important role by performing rituals, blessings, and soul callings. Many
Hmong immigrants retain these traditional spiritual beliefs, while
others have adopted Christianity. Traditional Hmong beliefs mingled with
Christianity have led to new forms of faith, though friction sometimes
arises between the two.
