There is an article by Kelmakov on different types of souls
lexicalized in Udmurt, maybe it's relevant for you:

> I’ve got a question from a colleague working in health psychology about the dichotomies such as “body vs. soul”, “body vs. mind” etc, as opposed to “person”, “human being etc.: how spread are these across the cultures and languages of the world? I know that a number of languages lack a dedicated word for ‘body’, but not so much about the distinction between the physical and non-physical aspects of human beings.
