Spirituality, Resilience and Life Satisfaction: A Study Among Middle Aged Adults

The study focuses on the linkages among spirituality, resilience, and life satisfaction among middle-aged adults in Delhi NCR, often undergoing major transitions in their lives, especially with career transitions, changing family situations, and health changes. The data were collected from 140 middle-aged adults. The findings show that higher spirituality correlates with higher life satisfaction, thereby identifying the role of spiritual practices in developing meaning, purpose, and social relationships at this point in life. Resilience positively predicts life satisfaction, as it allows individuals to cope with stressors, though it is less correlated with spirituality. The study shows how for the enhancement of life satisfaction, spiritual growth programs like mindfulness practices, community participation, and spiritual counselling can be effective. It further offers resilience-supporting mechanisms to adapt to stressors and retain positivity. Practical implications comprise integrating spirituality and resilience within workplace wellness programs, mental health services, and public health initiatives for middle-aged adults. Future research should rely on exploring cultural differences and longitudinal trends to bring forth more insights about how such relationships play out.
