Fostering Inner Harmony: Ways to Enhance Psychological Well-Being

Abstract

As the world continues to change and evolve, prioritizing mental health is an essential aspect for personal and collective well-being. Through a comprehensive review of literature and empirical studies, this paper examines various strategies and practices aimed at cultivating inner harmony, including mindfulness, self-compassion, and emotional regulation techniques. Many studies have shown that living a life with meaning and purpose, practice mindfulness, express gratitude, identify one’s strength, practice forgiveness, fostering relationships, yoga, a good physical health, social support and maintain a balanced lifestyle are some important factors that contribute to enhance psychological well-being. Some studies have also found that personality traits, such as openness to experience and conscientiousness were associated with higher level of psychological well-being.
