Psychological Well-Being Theory

Psychological Well-Being Theory suggests that true well-being involves more than just happiness or absence of illness; it encompasses striving for meaningful goals, self-acceptance, positive relationships, personal growth, purpose, and autonomy. It emphasizes that a fulfilling life is built on developing one's potential, maintaining strong connections with others, and feeling that life has purpose and coherence. This holistic approach recognizes that well-being includes both emotional health and a sense of fulfillment, contributing to overall life satisfaction and resilience.
