520 | |a Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the relationship between existential philosophy and personal well-being. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: The study revealed intricate connections between individuals' existential beliefs and their overall sense of fulfillment and satisfaction in life. The study suggests that embracing existential themes, such as confronting mortality, finding meaning in one's existence, and taking responsibility for one's choices, can positively impact well-being by fostering a sense of purpose and authenticity. Conversely, existential anxiety and distress may arise when individuals struggle to reconcile existential concerns, leading to feelings of alienation and despair. Moreover, study highlight the role of various coping mechanisms, such as seeking social support, engaging in self-reflection, and practicing mindfulness, in mitigating existential angst and promoting resilience. Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Self-determination theory, meaning-making theory and existential positive psychology may be used to anchor future studies on assessing the relationship between existential philosophy and personal well-being. Further qualitative research can explore the nuanced experiences and perspectives of individuals engaging with existential philosophy. Develop and evaluate interventions grounded in existential principles, such as existential therapy or existential life coaching. | ||
