what is "spirituality"?

It generally means they overpay for coffee and yoga.

It means atheist or agnostic, but it's a watered down way to say it so that Christians won't overreact.

It means they've seen some shite while on lsd.

Partly.

It's an acknowledgement that someone thinks there is a higher something, or a spirit world of some sort, or deeper connection to nature, etc.

For some people this can be a starting point to approach some sort of self-work. Even if that means leaving the confines of the religion they grew up with to practice yoga, etc.

For others, it is a way of defining that they believe in something higher... but that they have a disdain for organized religion. Therefore, they refuse to follow any established path (and pretty much any path will have some degree of organization & calls on some form of fellowship or trusting established ideas). Thus, out of pride, they choose to do nothing.

People use it to mean so many things that it is now meaningless.

As someone that went back and forth, no it's not. When you pray, you're escaping your worldly emotional mind and looking for peace and comfort. Someone does not have to follow a religion to do this. I'm not putting down religion, because I am, but spirituality can mean you just practice escaping your worldly mind regularly, not concentrating on thoughts/emotions.

It's when you think deeply about the 21 year old who has died from the flu but don't pray for him after he's dead.
