Spirituality is a theme that has been increasingly researched in the last years. The quest for a conceptual redaction is a first challenge for those who propose to undertake an investigative analysis of the issue. Few research projects have sought, like this one, to understand the possible approximations of spirituality with the educational field. The present work gathers together in a bibliographical and field research through a qualitative methodological option an investigation about the possibilities of relating spirituality to confronting the professor malaise. The research is concentrated in the municipality of Sapucaia do Sul, where twelve professors are interviewed, being that the interviews are transcribed, grouped and analyzed in four different categories. We consider that, for schools to be successful in their purpose of being a teaching and learning space, it is fundamental, that, among other items, there be qualified and motivated professors for such. However, many professionals in education, especially in Brazil, are afflicted by what specialists call the professor malaise. They feel they are being suffocated by the elevated class load, low valorization and work demands. The cultivation of spirituality habits can propitiate relief for the personal and professional lives of the professors thus helping to confront the daily troubles, potencializing their positive attitudes, leading to enhanced quality of life and professional performance.
